It was extremely annoying to encounter strange symbols every time a number is mentioned, and to be forced to decipher badly-formatted html to figure out what number was being stated. ... Read More

I love the classics that are available, and right now I am SO enjoying these stories!! I've never read Doyle before, but it's fun for me to watch each mystery unroll the way they do. I can't help but laugh at the genius of these stories!! So glad I was able to get this for my Kindle!!!
