A Study in Sherlock
A Study in Sherlock: Stories inspired by the Holmes canon | Laurie R. King, Leslie S. Klinger
5 posts | 14 read | 13 to read
BESTSELLING AUTHORS GO HOLMESIN AN IRRESISTIBLE NEW COLLECTION edited by award-winning Sherlockians Laurie R. King and Leslie S. Klinger Neil Gaiman. Laura Lippman. Lee Child. These are just three of eighteen superstar authors who provide fascinating, thrilling, and utterly original perspectives on Sherlock Holmes in this one-of-a-kind book. These modern masters place the sleuth in suspenseful new situations, create characters who solve Holmesian mysteries, contemplate Holmes in his later years, fill gaps in the Sherlock Holmes Canon, and reveal their own personal obsessions with the Great Detective. Thomas Perry, for example, has Dr. Watson tell his tale, in a virtuoso work of alternate history that finds President McKinley approaching the sleuth with a disturbing request; Lee Child sends an FBI agent to investigate a crime near todays Baker Streetonly to get a twenty-first-century shock; Jacqueline Winspear spins a story of a plucky boy inspired by the detective to make his own deductions; and graphic artist Colin Cotterill portrays his struggle to complete this assignment in his hilarious The Mysterious Case of the Unwritten Short Story.* In perfect tribute comes this delicious collection of twisty, clever, and enthralling studies of a timeless icon. Featuring stories from Alan Bradley Tony Broadbent Jan Burke Lionel Chetwynd Lee Child Colin Cotterill* Neil Gaiman Laura Lippman Gayle Lynds & John Sheldon Phillip & Jerry Margolin Margaret Maron Thomas Perry S. J. Rozan Dana Stabenow Charles Todd Jacqueline Winspear *print-version only From the Trade Paperback edition.

Read half of this light collection of loosely Holmes-inspired stories on my trip to Northern New England earlier this week. Stories by Margaret Maron & Neil Gaiman were great, as always. A surprising little coming-of-age story about a junior sleuth by Laura Lippman also entertained me. A few more stories to go. #funread #light #sherlockholmes #shortstory

Today's bookmail. I wanted the Holmes one at the Exhibition but didn't get it. And I've read Stuff, but foolishly returned it to the library.
