Summary
The second novel in Lois H. Gresh’s Sherlock Holmes vs. Cthulhu series
Amelia Scarcliffe’s monstrous brood, harbingers of Cthulhu, will soon spawn. Her songs spell insanity, death...and illimitable wealth. And Moriarty will do anything to get his hands on gold, even if it means tearing down the walls between this world and a realm of horrors.
Meanwhile, after Sherlock Holmes’s last tangle with the Order of Dagon, horrifying monsters haunt the Thames, and madness stalks the streets of Whitechapel. Gang war between Moriarty’s thugs and the powerful cult can only bring more terror - unless Holmes and Dr. Watson can prevent it. But can they find the cause of the neural psychoses before Watson himself succumbs?

not the best
I have listened to a number of Holmes supernatural stories. this one just didn't work for me. I like the narrator and his slow somewhat exacting style but felt the narrative was flimsy and disconnected. She has written better in the genre

Only part of the story
A well written and narrated story but it continues in the next book. I thought this was a complete story so a bit disappointing.

Incredible performance
The narrator is a joy to listen to. He switched seamlessly between different voices, characters, and accents and really took me on a journey.
The story was allllmost 5 stars. It was gory in places, tragic in others, and took me on an emotional ride. My heart broke for two of the characters in particular - which in large part was enabled by the excellent narration.. The only part I didn't get on with was Sherlock figuring out a deus ex machina that isn't really explained or logical.

Good Story
Not as good as some Sherlock stories but I enjoyed it. This is a more supernatural series which I don't mind.

Good read but lacks the Lovecraft feel
It lacks the mythos mystery feel. More of an action movie than mysterious horror. The asylum stuff is brutal, but again, after all it doesn't work much with the mysterious lovecraftian atmosphere, rather a sad sad story about how sick can people be (the ones that aren't actually ill). Nice listen nevertheless.

Unsubtle and rambling, it's no Conan Doyle
I love James Lovegrove's interpretations of Sherlock Holmes and Dennis Kline's narration, even if his pronunciation is s bit random. Unfortunately this book lacks the wit and style needed to carry the slow narration that typifies a Homes novel.
The terminology is not Victorian (e.g. "e-shockers") and the gratuitous violence and gore does not fit. I'm a long way into it but I realised today I wasn't enjoying listening, I'm just trying to get to the end. Now I have seen in another review that the story is not resolved I think I shall move on to something more rewarding and shan't trouble this author again.

Awful
This is really bad. It’s a ripoff of the James Lovegrove books, even the same author. But it’s so bad

poorly written
Never felt like a Sherlock Holmes story. Too much repetition of events and character thoughts.

Worse book ever
It is the worst book ever
Slow to the point of stop. The narrator has this monotonous voice that never ends.
I couldn’t finish listening to the book, I fast forward it to the end and wrote this
