The terrible spectacle of the beast, the fog of the moor, the discovery of a body, this classic horror story pits detective against dog. When Sir Charles Baskerville is found dead on the wild Devon moorland with the footprints of a giant hound nearby, the blame is placed on a family curse. It is left to Sherlock Holmes and Doctor Watson to solve the mystery of the legend of the phantom hound before Sir Charles' heir comes to an equally gruesome end.

Don't Review!!. This is the 1902 review and the book was written in 1902. Don't mess it up.

Hound. Truly a treasure. Masterful. Timeless .

Outstanding book. This book is uploaded beautifully. I recommend this book.

BevvyAnn

Spellbinding. I have seen several movie versions of this book, but the original narrative is still the best! If you are a Conan Doyle fan and have not read it, do so. If you are a fan of mystery stories, you will not be disappointed.

Eh.... Eh...

YoMamma#supscool

The Hound of the Baskervilles. Basic Sherlock Holmes mystery. Over time, they have become dated and hard to relate to.

TheRoboNinja

It's a great book. I really liked it but school ruined it for me

TomDugan

Hound of the Baskervills. Good book but "A Study in Scarlet" is better

Suspencfully Lovable!. I have always loved Sherlock! It is the one stand- by book for me when I can't find anything else I want to read. I have always been fascinated by him. I love all the writings about Holmes!

Awesome. Awesome

Take the review, stupid Apple!

A masterful tale!. Doyle, as usual, provides a story with great surprises and built upon solid logic.

Very good, but..... This is such a good book! But there were some things that didn't make any sense.

Awesome. Great book, classic

Great book. Really enjoyed this. Well written and a terrific story.

The Hound of the Baskervilles. This novel, by Sir Arthur Conan Doyle, is very cleverly written and quite engaging in that the reader wants to know how Holmes will solve the case. However, the case itself is fairly predictable; I had figured out most everything from the clues before the plot revealed the developments. For the predictability, I deducted a star. If you haven't read a Sherlock Holmes mystery, this one is the one to read.

Zelenogrand

Love it. I have always enjoyed Sherlock Holmes. This is one of the best!

Dcboy1950

The Hounds of the Baskervilles. Great read, over a hundred years and it's still spellbinding!

WONDERFUL. Great read, especially, when considering when this book was written.

Bookworm One

The Hound of the Baskervilles. There is hardly anything better on a lazy weekend than to curl up on the couch with a warm cup of tea and a great Sherlock Holmes novel. I feel that The Hound of the Baskervilles is one of the best of Conan Doyle's crime novels. It's well worth the time...

Boring. It was boring

Hound of the Baskerville. Such a good book, got my attention right away

Meh. I struggled to really grab on to it. This book was a school book we had to read, but it doesn't have enough plot for me or my interests.

Master chest@ commm

It โ€˜s good.. And nice.

ChiragT

Gripping and a fast paced page turner. This book got me back into reading after a year long hiatus. Once I finished the first page I couldn't help but read through it over the weekend. Warning! You may drop everything else that you are doing once you pick up this book.

Soje Thorns

LOVE IT!!!!!. I love it! Just as good when I read the book version!

Kikinbak

Very Good for a Classic. This book is a classic, no doubt. it definitely has the potential to join War & Peace, Don Quixote, and Robinson Crusoe as one of the top stories of all-time. It honestly kept me interested the whole way through, which I find rare for lots of classics, and had a very possible to solve, interesting mystery tied to its fantastic plot and intense action scenes. I had to read it for school, and it was probably one of the best school-assigned books I have ever read.

Packers are the bomb!

Hound of the Baskervilles. Okay book. Stapleton did it

Avalanche rock

AWESOMENESS. Awesomeness!!PURE AWESOMENESS!!!

Razzlelark

Hound of the Baskervilles. Fun to read with Downey Jr.s voice in my head. The current movies adhere rather well to Conan Doyle.s stylizations.

Jimmy Bob101

Great book. Intense action packed awesome scary cool and just an all around good book. Big chapters but very interesting ones. Worth reading

Alex Arnell

Review. I have longed to learn more of the writings of Sir Doyle after seeing movies if his created characters over the years. This is the second book of his writings I have consumed. I must say, I was rather pleased by those two books. I love the 19th century backdrop and style of language. I am usually put off by not understanding the choice of words of older writings, but in this book I was not and enjoyed the older style of words. I would recommend Sir Doyle's works and especially 'The Hound of the Baskerville'.

Awsome book!. I have not read such an excellent book in a very long time; it includes all the thrills and twists I like to have in a story. I never thought I'd be so surprised by a book in all my life!

R3D_66

Very Good Book. Ver Good book, the last chapter is the only boring part.

Awsomest123456789

Entertaining read. Excellent writing from a familiar genre.

Settthewolf

An amazing read!. I read this book at my high school for English and it was great! Definitely a suggestive read for fans of Mystery, Fiction, and of course, Sherlock Holmes. If you want a detective challenge, try this book! I surely suggest it.

A Shyam

Interesting. Trust me, this is one of the best classic mysteries you should read. Maybe at first you need to get used to the 1800โ€™s language but after you get used to the language in the book and start to REALLY enjoy the book.

Dr. Fe

Love It!. This is one of the best reads! It's an easy read and it keeps me engaged until the end.

Wolf22pack44

Great Book. Awesome Read

Chiricano 2001

Sherlock at his best. The length of the novella lends itself to the story. The gloomy and oppressively evil mood of the moor is masterfully rendered. Great characters and pacing. Wonderful.

Tednot

Great read. Terrific read. Very much enjoyed this book and would recommend it!

Louis lamour 2019

Great story. I enjoyed this story. I love that everything is explained in the end.

IFlozzy

The Hound of the Baskervilles. Has a great plot, but drags on really slowly. It definitely took me some determination to finish it.

MowinLawnsYons

Excellent. This book maintained the excellence which is presented throughout the Sherlock Holmes Series.

Awesome book!. I first read this book when I was probably 8 or 10 and ever since I have been completely hooked on all the Sherlock Holmes novels and short stories. I'm 25 now and each time I read the Hound of the Baskervilles again it is amazing. A truly great book from start to finish.

An Absolute Thrill To Read!. It is books like this one that can keep me reading for hours without feeling bored. Doyle is just that good of an author!

Frsky now

The hound of the Baskervilles. Really, what can be said about a timeless classic? I am so glad I took the time to read it, and got a glimpse of life in the 1800's, and the immortal Sherlock Holmes. Doyle has a unique style that I really could appreciate, and therefore I highly recommend it to anybody.

Sammie_Lee

Amazing!. Very definitely a must read classic!

Good. Arthur Conan Doyle is an excellent writer. I am intrigued by all his books.

Mike Strivens

Classic crime thriller. I love all the Sherlock Holmes stories but this one is a special classic that can be read time and again.

Dominic williams

Sherlock holmesn. It was crap

Beachy75

Still fantastic. If you've never read a Sherlock Holmes story before, this is a great choice to begin with. By the end you will realise why SH stories are still so popular and loved by hard core fans and new comers alike. Mystery, suspense, action,humour, romance...it's all there. It's never dull and not overly long. This will have you reading to the very last word to find out who,how and why. And it's free!!! Don't let the fact it was written over 100 years ago put you off.

Fantastic. Pure classic detective work a must for any Holmes fan

Chris-toffee

Great book, naff formatting. We all know the story; superb. The trouble with ebooks is the formatting and editing. In this edition the standard font size works fine, but if you make the font bigger or smaller the carriage returns are in the wrong place. Stupid.

Yjgvyjyfchyfv

So much potential, all wasted. The story had so much potential and spent the whole book building up to an incredible conclusion that never came. It was a sudden and unsatisfactory end. However, the middle of the book was interesting.

Hound of the Baskervilles. Really an enjoyable story like all the Sherlock Holmes tales. Will no doubt enthral younger readers as it did to me all those Years ago when I read it for the first time.

TOPREVIEWER22

Very Good!. This is such a good book! Although it can be a little hard to understand sometimes it is a really gripping story. I would not recommend this though to anyone who does not like scary books as this can be a little scary at times.

The hound of Baskervilles. Another amazing Sherlock Holmes book and is well worth reading more than once

Hound of the baskervilles. I nearly died with boredom readin this ๐Ÿ˜ช I was forced to read this

Er3bus71

One to read. I loved the whole story, well written and very atmospheric throughout. I have read the book now and watched the films from Basil Rathbone to Benedict Cumberbatch. All of them had a different twist on the character of Holmes but the main plot of the story remains the same. The only thing I didnโ€™t like about the book was the summary of the whole case at the end. After reading the book, I fully understood why certain things happened the way they had. Apart from that, very enjoyable and will certainly be reading more of Sherlocks exploits.

OMFG this is mind blowing. I have sooooooooo enjoyed this book because it was so short!

Brilliant. The story is phenomenal and dives deep into the mysterious style of writing

Hound. Refreshing read. Sir Doyle brings the feeling of the Novel to the reader. Impressive tale, with Mr Holmes only in 40% of the book.

A good read. This was the first time reading a Sherlock Holmes story and I enjoyed it much more than I thought I would.

:). An excellent novel that represents the true genius of Sir Arthur Conan Doyle.

Breakfast221

Stellar. Sir Arthur Conan Doyle did a fantastic job in crafting the Sherlock Holmes series. I can rarely find literature that is as captivating as this, and the fact that it's free and portable is pretty cool and convenient.

JohnP73

Great book.. Good book. I had to read it for my Reading class and this came out convenient. Besides that, it was a great book with a lot of excitement.

Timbo D

Great read!. I never thought that this story would be so gripping every step of the way. I read "The Red-Headed League" and was a little disappointed, but this wonderful story more than made up for it. Doyle is the master of the mystery. So much fun to read!

Souch3

ABSOLUTELY FANTASTIC. Rarely a dull moment with evocative writing and fantastic descriptive language. Truly suspenseful throughout, you can feel the tension and see the scenes perfectly in your head. A fantastic Holmes novel.

Samipadlover256446748657

ok. The book was interesting. I had to read it for a school project.

Guillo24

Great book. A pesar de haber leido este libro en ingles siento que lo entendรญ completamente y el tiempo que tomo leerlo fue uno bien gastado

Hitsuzen321

Love it!. I first read this book in 8th grade, and I have loved it ever since. It is awesome that they offer these for free because my son is getting to the age of reading assignments,so this works out well. Thank you!

Good. Good

Anthocology1988

Taken by surprise. When I first set out to read this work, I was sure that because of its use of slightly archaic language, I would derive no excitement from its pages. Of course, I was proved wrong and devoured the splendid mystery with such ferocity that I was sure, at times, that I was trampling through that moor right along with this intrepid troupe! The best things in life are free, indeed!

Gem&Seb

Clever and fun. The Hound of of the Baskervilles is short at 214 pages, and this coupled with it's fast pace will attract teen readers; adults will love clever twists and an enjoyable storyline. It starts off at a steady pace (what little boring chit chat there is is balanced by fun surprises the author throws in) and gathers steam until you can't put the book down. Highly recommended!

About Author "Arthur Conan Doyle"

Sir Arthur Ignatius Conan Doyle (22 May 1859ย โ€“ 7 July 1930) was a British writer and physician. He created the character Sherlock Holmes in 1887 for A Study in Scarlet, the first of four novels and fifty-six short stories about Holmes and Dr. Watson. The Sherlock Holmes stories are milestones in the field of crime fiction. Doyle was a prolific writer; other than Holmes stories, his works include fantasy and science fiction stories about Professor Challenger, and humorous stories about the Napoleonic soldier Brigadier Gerard, as well as plays, romances, poetry, non-fiction, and historical novels. One of Doyle's early short stories, "J. Habakuk Jephson's Statement" (1884), helped to popularise the mystery of the Mary Celeste. Name Doyle is often referred to as "Sir Arthur Conan Doyle" or "Conan Doyle", implying that "Conan" is part of a compound surname rather than a middle name. His baptism entry in the register of St Mary's Cathedral, Edinburgh, gives "Arthur Ignatius Conan" as....
