I forgot a lot in 1.5 years. I truly enjoyed myself rereading this and discovering some major character reveals that blindsided me for a second time. My sentiments haven't changed, still such a great detailed reimagining of two of my favorite fictional characters. Just like it's a tradition for me to read Addison's Goblin Emperor every 4 years, it might be a new tradition to reread this book every two.

This should have been titled, “The Crow of the Angels”. What an ending. I enjoyed all the mysteries and didn't mind that they were all easily solved because, like any good serial series, the underlying narrative and relationships pull you along and keep you invested.

Also, I don't particularly care that this was Sherlock wingfic. This was indulgent. And as someone who loves Sherlock and Watson as the characters they are, I truly relish reading any iteration of them that celebrates who they are.
