Believe it or not, Kareem Abdul Jabbar just published his 2nd Sherlock Holmes novel

[FSogol]

The first was called Mycroft Holmes and the newest is titled, Mycroft and Sherlock. They are coauthored by Anna Waterhouse.

I reserved both at my library this morning and the Washington Post book critic enjoyed them.

Anyone read them yet?

1. Have not read them yet

As a fan of all detective and spy novels, I have no excuse.

2. I just got the first one

but haven't started reading it yet. It's very popular, though, so I expect to enjoy it and get the second one later.

3. At any point is Holmes a passenger in a train and travelling incognito

And a little kid comes up and asks, "Aren't you Sherlock Holmes?".

[FSogol]

4. Yeah he says, "I'm sorry, son, but you must have me confused with someone else.

I'm Roger Murdock."

11. "I think you're the greatest, but my dad says you don't work hard enough on defense.

And he says that lots of times, you don't even run down court. And that you don't really try... except during the playoffs."

[Cuthbert Allgood]

5. His comic book arc was pretty solid.

I haven't read the novels yet but they are on the (really long) list.

8. I read them both

Very good stories!!! And well written.
There's been some discussion about them on the Fiction thread.

9. Almost halfway through now

I am loving it. Interesting tale, and funny. I like his concept of "moral insanity" since we are now dealing with that very thing. Prescient.

10. I will

when I get home.
