Sherlock Poems Is Up for Pre-Order!

 Sherlock Poems Is Up for Pre-Order!

 

Sherlock Poems is now available for pre-order!  You can now order it on the official MX Website, https://www.amazon.com/Sherlock-Poems-Complete-Adventures-Holmes/dp/1804246999, and Barnes & Noble!  If you order through the MX website, every book you buy will “Share the Meal” through the World Food Programme!

 

All of the Sherlock Holmes mysteries like you've never seen them before.

A new spin on all four Sherlock Holmes novels, fifty-six short stories, and the apocryphal tales.  Fans of Roald Dahl's Revolting Rhymes will be familiar with the twist: take a classic story and retell it in rhyme with plenty of humour.  Enjoy the adventures of Sherlock Holmes and Doctor Watson; reimagined as verse.
