The thrilling conclusion of Audible's blockbuster Sherlock Holmes saga brings back Dominic Monaghan and Phil LaMarr in their iconic roles... and introduces the one man who holds the key to Moriarty’s past: Ben Kingsley as Moriarty's father.

Professor James Moriarty thought he could outwit fate… But when his future-predicting equation falls into the wrong hands, it threatens to ignite a global war. Moriarty is dragged into a deadly race across continents, locked in a twisted duel with Sherlock Holmes himself, and haunted by secrets from his own family that refuse to stay buried.

From sinking ships to burning cathedrals, shadow councils to submarine tombs, this season hurtles Moriarty toward a final reckoning where genius, betrayal, and obsession collide.

Moriarty: The Great Chaos is a globe-spanning thriller that proves the most dangerous equation of all is the one you can’t solve yourself.

Available in Dolby Atmos on Audible.

Pros and cons here. It was still enjoyable and kept me listening. And the whole premise of Moriarty as the good guy and Holmes the evil genius still holds well. In fact Holmes really steps it up on this instalment. Moriarty and Moran are again played brilliantly by Dominic Monaghan and Ross McCall, and Joanne Froggatt as Violet is an excellent addition. The score and sound effects were good. The Baskerville denouement was a nice touch.

However, the story dragged in places, it got ever more ridiculous as it went on and during the action set pieces it was hard to fathom what was happening. The relentless bickering between Moriarty and his father wore thin pretty quickly, just as it did between the Professor and Holmes in the second book. Both needed toning down a bit. Worse still was Phil LaMarr’s portrayal as Holmes, which was so off putting. His emphasis, intonation and odd drawl made it difficult to listen to.

I think this was the weakest of the trilogy, but still a decent listen.

Too many musical interludes spoils the flow of the stores. Less would definitely be more.

Unusual twist in making Holmes the villain
