Descripción de TALES OF TERROR
This book includes nine tales of terror. It was written in 1923, four years before the last of the Sherlock Holmes books. Sir Arthur Conan Doyle is obviously at his best at mystery rather than terror. That said,Conan Doyle\\'s tales of terror are fascinating and reach out over the years rather better. Particularly appreciated is "The Horror of the Heights", which is a terrific science-fiction/adventure/horror story. Other good stories in the Terror section were "The NewCatacomb", a Poe-sequel tale of revenge;"The Case of Lady Sannox", which has a very fine twist;and "The Brazilian Cat", a grim tale that reminded me of some of Roald Dahl\\'s mordant stories. Some other reviewers have expressed preference for the Mystery stories over the Terror stories, but we found these to be just as satisfying as the Mystery ones.
