A Study in Emerald by Neil Gaiman
My fifteenth book for ljbookbingo is A Study in Emerald by Neil Gaiman for the Graphic Novel square found here.
This supernatural mystery set in the world of Sherlock Holmes and Lovecraft's Cthulhu Mythos features a brilliant detective and his partner as they try to solve a horrific murder. The complex investigation takes the Baker Street investigators from the slums of Whitechapel all the way to the Queen's Palace as they attempt to find the answers to this bizarre murder of cosmic horror!
I have to admit I hardly know anything about Lovecraft or the Cthulhu mythos but I knew enough for me to get by. Also there is not a whole lot I can say about the plot without giving away key points and spoilers so I will just say this, It is a very well written, well illustrated book. It is short, unique, and fairly easy read and I highly recommend it!
