From Amazon.com

Longtime fans of Arthur Conan Doyle's fictional detective, Sherlock Holmes, might think that their favorite sleuth met his fate at the hands of Dr. Moriarty at the Reichenbach Falls. Anyone who believes that, however, obviously hasn't read Laurie R. King's delightful series featuring Holmes and his wife(!), Mary Russell. In The Beekeeper's Apprentice, Holmes succumbs to the Oxford scholar's charms; now, in The Moor, fourth in the series, Holmes and Russell are summoned to Devonshire to solve a tin miner's mysterious death. Lonely Dartmoor provides plenty of opportunities for King to both relate the haunting legends of that part of the world and offer some amusing revisions to one of Holmes's most famous cases, The Hound of the Baskervilles. Though Holmes purists might resent the liberties taken with their hero, readers in search of a strong female protagonist, some fascinating local history, and spooky ambience will enjoy The Moor. --Ce texte provient d'une édition qui n'est plus publiée ou qui est non diponible.


From Library Journal

Young Mary Russell (A Monstrous Regiment of Women, St. Martin's, 1995) drops everything to join husband Sherlock Holmes in Devonshire, where the pair investigate an ancient family curse near the scene of The Hound of the Baskervilles?published some 20 years earlier. The forbidding moor nearby provides them both danger and inspiration. Excellent work.

3.0étoiles sur 5 "The Moor" is a disappointment, Mai 28 2004
Par Joseph M. Patane (Manchester, MO United States) - Voir tous mes commentaires
(REAL NAME)   
This review is from: The Moor (Mass Market Paperback)
I had anticipated a story with suspense, spooky, erie scenes involving the moor. At least, I was hoping for some supernatural scenes, even if they would be eventually explained away later as some phosphorescent paint splashed onto a dog's face, or whatever. What I read was a story about a constantly bored Mary, and a boring story line. All the books I read are subjected to my own rating system from stupid or 0 to E for excellent. I almost did not want to finish this book, which would have meant a "0" rating, but I gave it a Fair rating, instead, partially because I love all Holmes stories. I was tempted to give it a "stupid" ratine, but I could not. In brief, there was almost no suspense, very little mystery, and a total lack of the power of Holmes' presence. So a fair rating was probably too high for this disappointing story.

4.0étoiles sur 5 Read During a Thunderstorm, Mai 15 2004
Par oddsfish (Winters, TX) - Voir tous mes commentaires
This review is from: The Moor (Mass Market Paperback)
I'm rather surprised by the several negative reviews of The Moor. Certainly, it is a little different from the other Mary Russell novels, but I found it to be so enjoyable, only falling short of The Beekeeper's Apprentice. The pace moves like a little stroll in the park, and it's thoroughly pleasant. Mary Russell is, as always, a charming character, and I really enjoyed Holmes and Russell's quiet, rather loving interactions in this novel. The stately character of Sabine Baring-Gould (an extraordinary person in his real life also) overlooking Russell and Holmes in their treks across the moor also adds a lot to the novel, some sense of old English nostalgia. His presense as an old, sometimes difficult, friend also allows for further character development of the two primary characters. Sure, the mystery does take a backseat in the novel. With two dominant characters like Russell and Holmes, it seems there's little room left for plot, but that is how every Mary Russell novel seems to me. It's not a bad thing. Overall, I truly enjoyed The Moor. It's another excellent read in the series and is just a wonderful novel for light afternoon reading. I can't wait to read the next Mary Russell novel.

4.0étoiles sur 5 Take your time to enjoy this, Mai 10 2004
Par R. BULL "a reader" (Kansas City, MO United States) - Voir tous mes commentaires
(REAL NAME)   
This review is from: The Moor (Mass Market Paperback)
In the fourth book of the Russell - Holmes series Laurie R. King
presents us with a novel that echoes the time and pace of the surroundings - the moor. As many reviewers noted, the pace is slow. Time is spent on atmosphere, character development, and in subltle humor that will not be to the taste of everyone. I liked this book better than books two and three in the series, but that might have been because I was in the mood for more leisurely pursuits than when I read the other two. I think Ms. King handled the challenge of returning to the scene of perhaps Holmes' most famous case, in a deft and successful way, but don't read this immediately after watching an Indiana Jones movie. Put the kettle on to boil, let the tea steep, and take your time.
