Why read it?
2 authors picked Sherlock Holmes Vs. Dracula as one of their favorite books. Why do they recommend it?
This is an absolutely brilliant pastiche of Victorian literature, starring the era’s two greatest fictional characters.
It weaves Holmes and Watson into the basic plot of Dracula, with Watson grumbling about setting the record straight because that ‘spurious monograph’ by some fella called Stoker missed out on Holmes’s involvement in the case!
A light, quite short, hugely entertaining read.
From Richard's list on Dracula and other vampires.
Another Detroiter like myself, Estleman, is known for both great westerns and a number of hard-boiled mystery series that are all good, but he did this one early in his career, and the immaculate execution and thorough research showcase this book.
Dracula is moving on London, but Holmes is moving behind the scenes to support Van Helsing’s defense of London, and it makes all the difference!
From Christian's list on Sherlock Holmes mash-ups.
