The Secret Notebooks of Sherlock Holmes (2012)
June Thomson has taken several of Holmes' unpublished cases, as noted in Conan Doyle's stories, as her basis for the tales in The Secret Notebooks of Sherlock Holmes. She presents them as recovered from Watson's Army tin dispatch box, which was in the care of Cox & Co., whose building was bombed ...
The Valley of Fear (2007)
http://njkinny.blogspot.in/2014/06/bo...The Valley of Fear is not new to me. I read it the first time when I was in the seventh standard and totally loved it. The mystery was totally ingenious and utterly unexpected!Arthur Conan Doyle had studied to become a doctor but started writing when patien...
The Sign of Four (2001)
"My mind," he said, "rebels at stagnation. Give me problems, give me work, give me the most abstruse cryptogram, or the most intricate analysis, and I am in my own proper atmosphere. I can dispense then with artificial stimulants. But I abhor the daily routine of existence. I crave for mental exa...
The Memoirs of Sherlock Holmes (1993)
In 2010, we had to read for classes one of the Sherlock Holmes' books. My teacher gave us three options. Those options were The Hound of the Baskervilles, A Study in Scarlet and The Memoirs of Sherlock Holmes. We had to vote for the one we considered the most interesting, and the winner was THotB...
The Secret Chronicles of Sherlock Holmes (1994)
Yet another attempt to create the "missing cases" that Arthur Conan Doyle hinted at in the Canon but never got around to writing, such as the case of the giant rat of Sumatra. Only one of these short stories is a proper mystery -- and it is incredibly easy to solve. This book nicely mimics Doyle ...
The Return of Sherlock Holmes (1993)
I know now why this collection of 13 short stories is called “The Return..” In the last story of “Memoirs” entitled The Final Problem, Watson says that Holmes has retired and will no longer publish new stories. Now in real life, between that story which was published in 1893 and 1903, the period...

The Complete Sherlock Holmes (1986)
A Study in Scarlet: The first novel featuring the prototypical detective, it was a page-turner that made me excited to read the rest of the Sherlock Holmes canon. I was unnecessarily concerned when the second part of the novel opened in America, and did not seem to concern the original mystery th...
The Adventures of Sherlock Holmes (1998)
The stories were very interesting, and I enjoyed most of them. But, I don't know, I didn't find them very satisfying. Maybe I am not really a fan of short stories? Perhaps I'll enjoy the Sherlock Holmes novels more.There are twelve short stories in this collection. They are a selection of some of...
The Complete Sherlock Holmes, Vol 2 (2004)
“Someday, the true story may be told.”These were Sherlock Holmes’ last words as written on page 737 of Sherlock Holmes Complete Novels and Stories Volume 2, by Sir Arthur Conan Doyle. I have now reached the end of my journey. A first, I must say, on my part reading a canon.The whole experience wa...
Sherlock Holmes: The Complete Novels and Stories, Volume I (1986)
The Complete Sherlock Holmes: Volume I by Sir Arthur Conan Doyle is great fun to read. Other than the three short novels, A Study in Scarlet, The Sign of the Four, and The Hound of the Baskervilles, this first volume is comprised of a collection of Holmes stories (also published under the titles ...
Sherlock Holmes and the Ghosts of Bly: And Other New Adventures of the Great Detective (2010)
I was surprised by the relatively low ratings given to Thomas's Sherlock Holmes stories. I'm a fan of Doyle's SH and have been reading (and re-reading) them since I was in high school and I actually found several of Donald Thomas's Sherlock tales MORE entertaining and well-written than many of t...
