Critics Review

“A most enjoyable and intriguing book” * The Washington Times *“If you are a fan of Sir Arthur Conan Doyle’s consulting detective series, you owe it to yourself to read this collection. I found myself laughing with delight, and turning pages with trembling fingers, driven to see what came next as each new author spun a tale related, in some way, to Conan Doyle’s immortal characters. The reader is sure to be amazed, delighted and entertained from one end of the book to the other.” * The Oklahoman *“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.” * Kirkus Reviews *“A treasure.” * Newark Star-Ledger *“A winner for fans of classic mysteries and a complete joy for Holmes fanatics.” * Bookreporter *“This new anthology will obviously appeal to long-time fans of Holmes, as well as those readers who enjoyed the two earlier collections. If those previous collections passed you by, pick up this latest and experience how Holmes and Watson have influenced such a wide-ranging assortment of authors.” * Bookgasm *“King and Klinger’s strong third Sherlockian anthology features 17 stories from leading authors who draw on Conan Doyle’s work for inspiration. The end result is a rich variety of entries.” * Publishers Weekly *“Yet another outstanding collection of stories (following the widely acclaimed In the Company of Sherlock Holmes) paying homage to the great detective Sherlock Holmes. A powerhouse of a collection, sure to please even the most particular Sherlockian.” * River Heights Book Review *
