Kurzbeschreibung
Sherlock Holmes is intrigued and disturbed when he receives an ominous coded message: a Mr. Douglas of Birlstone House is in terrible danger. Before Holmes can act, shocking news arrives. Douglas has been found dead - his face blown off by a shotgun. Scotland Yard is stumped. Was this suicide or murder? But Holmes is in no such doubt - for he recognises the calling card of his nemesis, Professor James Moriarty.

A Treat to Holmes Fans Everywhere
13. Juli 2011
Format:Taschenbuch|Von Amazon bestätigter Kauf
As with the other three graphic novels, Ian Edginton and I.N.J Culbard do an astounding job adapting Conan Doyle's stories into graphic novels. Prior to reading this graphic novel, "The Valley of Fear" was one of the few Sherlock Holmes stories which I didn't know. Following the reading of this graphic novel, I was finally able to learn this story. Considering this is the latest graphic novel in the series, I am seriously hoping that another adapting the short stories is written as well. The Sherlock Holmes graphic novels are truly enjoyable books for any Sherlock Holmes fan.
The Tragedy of Birlstone...
1. Mai 2012
Format:Taschenbuch|Von Amazon bestätigter Kauf
"The Valley of Fear" is one of four Sherlock Holmes novels ably adapted to graphic novel format by Ian Edginton and I.N.J. Culbard. Conan Doyle's short novel introduces Holmes' greatest nemisis, the brillant crime boss Professor Moriarty, while challengng the famous detective Sherlock Holmes and faithful sidekick Doctor Watson to solve a mysterious death at the country manor house of Birlstone.
As the story opens, Scotland Yard Inspector McDonald consults Holmes on a horrible murder. John Douglas of Birlstone Manor has been horribly murdered by the blast of a sawn-off shotgun at close range. There is no apparent motive and it is unclear who might be responsible. Holmes and Watson travel to Birlstone to interview the witnesses and examine the crime scene. Holmes quickly detects a deception; his solution will astonish the local police, Scotland Yard, and the reader.
Edginton has adapted all the essentials of the original novel into a 124-page graphic format, while Culbard's simple but evocative artwork brings Sherlock Holmes and Doctor Watson to life. As with two other of the novels, the story is presented in two parts, with Holmes and Watson solving a crime in the present, followed by an explanatory (and exciting) backstory to fill in the gaps. The backstory here concerns labor violence in a Pennsylvania coalfield, a gripping story in its own right. "The Valley of Fear" has been neglected in adaptions of Conan Doyle's stories to other mediums; Edginton and Culbard are to be congratulated for their nice job here. Highly recommended to Sherlock Holmes fans and to their children who need an introduction to the world famous detective.
