A fun reimagining of a Doyle classic in a steampunk milieu. In this version, Mycroft Holmes is a femme fatale, Watson a cyborg, and the Bruce-Partington Plans instead the plans for Nemo's Nautilus. These changes made for a fun trip, and I enjoyed the changes made to the source material for the most part (especially as I am a firm believer that the world needs more Mycroft Holmes). It falls off the rails a bit in the last act, when it becomes something of a summer action film rather than a Victoriana story, but this intersection is definitely worth a read if you regularly travel through the avenues of its ingredients.
