His razor-sharp intellect, uncanny powers of deduction, and knowledge of the criminal underground are legendary throughout London. He solves cases with the able assistance of his close friend and confidant. And, one day, he will become the arch enemy of Sherlock Holmes.

Meet Professor James Moriarty - consulting criminal.

In these three original tales - collected for the first time - Andy Weir brings to life a Moriarty worthy of the Great Detective himself.

The character is basically shirlock Holmes without the baggage of having to be true to the history of the character. Not bad but could have been better

How to write a shirlock Holmes?

We need more of this! So much more! That was excellent! Deliberate reading and perfect intonation for an idea so well-executed, that could have gone down as a hamfisted attempt at fan-fiction. So. Well. Executed!

MORE!

Andy Weir (author of "The Martian") wrote this bit of Sherlock-Holmes-fan-fiction featuring THE enemy: Professor Moriaty.

And it is real fan-fiction because he slavishly follows the templates of Conan Doyle. The story is told from the POW of a Watson-like lieutenant and unlike the elegant character in the stories of MIchael Kurland this Moriaty is without depth or character.

Yes he is evil and without moral constraints - but there are no emmotions.Just a very, very intelligent surface (like an unnamed student of chemistry mentioned in the last sentence...)

I am a Sherlock Holmes fan and have thoroughly read Sir Arthur Conan Doyle‘s original work. I have also read and admired other good works of Andy Weir, the nature of which is quite different than this book. I dare say this work is as good as the original, though to be fair, Weir did not have to start from scratch. But he did a great job of making it both resemble the original and yet, be completely new! I’m looking forward to more of this.

Excellent work!

Especially the relation to Sherlock Holmes and some mystery stories he solves was awesome. Also the mentioned les trade made me very happy. Multiple readers would have made it even more lively but still it was well read.

Loved it
