Review:
"Newbury and Hobbes are engaging characters...Fast-paced and well-written" (School Library Journal)
Mann clearly knows his Holmes, knows what works and... the book is all the better for it." -- Crime Fiction Lover
"An amazing story. I had anticipated a certain level for The Will of the Dead, but George Mann went far, far above it... the ideas behind his stories are interesting and fresh and he knows how to come up with a brilliant plot twist that will set your mouth agape. Even in the established world of Sherlock Holmes, George Mann is a strong voice and sets himself apart!" --The Book Plank
"Mann writes Holmes in a eloquent way, capturing the period of the piece perfectly, throwing Jeremy Brett fuelled childhood memories at me with every page and I must say that, if all non-Doyle Holmes adventures are this good, I will certainly read more... Those of you that love your Sherlock in any form, this is a must read." --Cult Den
