Reviews
“A fine collection by fifteen noted authors.”
“Introducing their fifth ever more wide-ranging collection, the editors indicate the principal originality of this one: the authors are all ‘not previously known to be friends of Holmes.’ This promise is paid off in spades…No fewer than four of these tales are set in California. Will a surfer Holmes be next? Dude!”
“A sharp, affectionate, light-footed collection.”
“Laurie R. King and Leslie Klinger continue to breathe new life into Sherlockian tales.”
“Great fun for anyone who loves crime fiction. The collection is diverting, delightful, and best taken with a cup of hot tea.”
“Satisfy your Sherlock cravings with these superb stories.”
“An eclectic but accomplished group of novelists, primarily mystery and crime writers, take some intriguingly different looks at Holmes’ legacy. The legacy of Sir Arthur Conan Doyle’s work and his most famous character is on rich display here.”
“Every fan will find different reasons to cheer. And they’ll all marvel at the inventive range of this salute to the greatest of all fictional detectives.”
“Many of the stories are fascinating in their inventiveness. There’s plenty of mystery, of course, but there are also elements of fantasy and sci-fi.”
