A Study in Scarlet (AmazonClassics Edition) Customer Reviews
:- 3.0 out of 5 stars from fra7299 -- Not one of my favorites : In my opinion, A Study in Scarlet is one of the weaker of the Sherlock Holmes tales I’ve read. I think it pales in comparison to the likes of many stories contained in The Adventures of Sherlock Holmes (which, in my estimation, is brilliant) as well as the classic novel The Hound of the Baskervilles. ( Reviewed in the United States on February 2, 2019 )
- 3.0 out of 5 stars from Reinold F. -- The first adventure of a charismatic detective and a man of action (AmazonClassics edition) : I wonder where it came the image of Dr. Watson as an elder and meek man following the adventures of the clever Sherlock Holmes. This first story shows instead Dr. Watson as a man of action, a doctor that has seen war and is not afraid to use his gun if the danger appears. Sherlock Holmes appears like a genius philosopher of crime. I have to confess that the TV series "Sherlock" (2010) is a good depiction, including the detail that Watson publishes their adventures. This little detail I think gives it a unique character that differentiate it from other stories of detectives, in the sense that both friends are progressively more known by the citizens of London: they read the book we are reading, and they are going to look at Watson and Sherlock in the same way we would react to the sight of them in the real life.

- 4.0 out of 5 stars from JJares -- How Sherlock Holmes Enters London's History : This is the first book of the Sherlock Holmes series, first printed in 1887. There were a total of 8 books in this series. This book tells the origins of Watson and Holmes' alliance. Watson is a former military surgeon (in Afghanistan) in poor health, looking for a roommate and inexpensive lodgings in London. Watson also needs some kind of gentle diversion as he is recouping. Thus, Sherlock Holmes enters the story. ( Reviewed in the United States on June 12, 2020 )
- 4.0 out of 5 stars from Tim -- The Detective Appears. : This is another one of those books that is hard to review as the main character has become so large that he has stepped of the written page and almost become real, is real to so many people. Reading this I had to try and shrink all the media back until all I had left was the written word before me, to try and imagine I was in a different world at a different time, and that no-one had ever heard the name of Sherlock Holmes.

- 5.0 out of 5 stars from Lauren -- Sir Conan Doyle has a talent for writing, as Holmes has a talent for solving cases! : “To a great mind, nothing is little,' remarked Holmes, sententiously.” ( Reviewed in the United Kingdom on January 17, 2022 )
- 3.0 out of 5 stars from Trish23 -- A Study in Scarlet : I've always loved Sherlock Holmes on screen in practically every incarnation, from Basil Rathbone to Jeremy Brett and beyond. However I have never really enjoyed actually reading the stories and often choose to try to read one when I can't sleep and they tend to work like a charm for curing insomnia. I thought perhaps the problem was that I started with the short stories so I decided to begin at the beginning and read the novel where it all began, A Study In Scarlet. ( Reviewed in the United Kingdom on February 6, 2017 )
- 5.0 out of 5 stars from M. Dowden -- Introducing Sherlock Holmes : Here we have the first appearance of Sherlock Holmes and Dr Watson, in this the first of only four novels as the rest of the tales were short stories. Nowadays everyone has heard of Holmes, but this was published with very little interest from the public. One reason for this may be that apart from ‘The Hound of the Baskervilles’ the other novels have never proved as popular as the short tales. Another reason also is rather ironic as mention is made in this book of Lecoq a fictional French detective who was arguably the most famous detective in the world until Holmes eventually usurped him from his place, and the creator and author of him and other crime tales, Emile Gaboriau, in which the structure of this novel does bear some resemblance to its format.

- 5.0 out of 5 stars from Jackie M -- Highly recommended. : This is the first of the Sherlock Holmes series and well worth reading. The first part gives Dr. Watson's account of being introduced to Sherlock Holmes and then the discovery of two murders. The second part is set twenty years earlier and provides the motive for the murders. ( Reviewed in the United Kingdom on December 20, 2015 )
