The latest entry in Laurie R. King and Leslie S. Klinger’s popular Sherlock Holmes-inspired mystery series

Sherlock Holmes has not only captivated readers for more than a century and a quarter, he has fascinated writers as well. It is little wonder, then, that when the renowned Sherlockians Laurie R. King and Leslie S. Klinger invited their writer-friends and colleagues to be inspired by the Holmes canon, a cornucopia of stories sprang forth, with more than 60 of the greatest modern writers participating in four acclaimed anthologies.

Now, King and Klinger have invited another 15 masters to become In League with Sherlock Holmes. The contributors to this volume include award-winning authors of horror, thrillers, mysteries, westerns, and science fiction, all bound together in admiration and affection for the original stories. The resulting stories are funny, haunting, thrilling, and surprising. All are unforgettable.

Disappointing

I read a later compilation and loved it and decided to try this one. Wish I hadn't. It was a waste of a credit and my time. I skipped so much of the endings I just couldn't bore myself further, I wish I had my credit back. It's that bad.

Not Sherlock Holmes

I guess I didn’t read the description thoroughly enough. I thought this was new stories of Sherlock Holmes. Homes doesn’t appear in any of them.

off the mark

I have listened to and enjoyed the other compilations by king and klinger. the stories in this compilation were way too dark for my taste unlike the previous books. I did not care for the readers for most of the stories either based on this book I will not be getting any more.
