[Review contains minor spoilers]I came for Sherlock Holmes and stayed for John Ferrier. Where can I get me a man like that lol? Honest and hardworking, loyal and protective over his adoptive daughter, recognizes the mormons for the misogynistic cult they are AND celibate? Only in a book could such a perfect man exist.Anyways, everyone knows Sherlock Holmes and I looove, love, love the concept and the characters of Sherlock and John, as well as their dynamic. I've watched all movies and tv shows and finally I'm reading the books (btw if you're looking for a good tv show I can recommend the classic Granada Holmes and Elementary, don't bother with the BBC version unless you have nothing else to do).I never knew the book was parted in two stories, first half with John & Sherlock and the second half was the story of John Ferrier, but of course the story connects to the case. Honestly I didn't expect the second half to hold my attention as it did, I would've read a whole book or series about John Ferrier and his daughter on his own! Final words: Great introduction to Sherlock and John as characters, an actual classic for a reason (unlike some others... looking at you Shadow over innsmouth, ugh.)
