Sherlock Holmes!!!!!!!!!!!!

This page I devote to Poppie

My Sherlockian library (misc. stuff):

  • William S. Baring-Gould's Annotated Edition
    I have not read any of this yet!
  • Leslie S. Klinger's New Annotated Edition
    My bible. My introduction to Holmes. Have read approx. 4 times.
  • Sherlock Holmes of Baker Street by William S. Baring-Gould
  • The Encyclopedia Sherlockiana by Jack Tracy
  • Sherlock Holmes: The Published Apocrypha, edited by Jack Tracy
  • Sherlock Holmes by Gas-Lamp, edited by Phillip A. Schreffler

My Sherlockian library cont. (pastiches, fanfic, etc.)

  • The Seven-Per-Cent Solution by Nicholas Meyer
    I like it!
  • The West End Horror by Nicholas Meyer
    ...Okay!
  • The Private Life of Sherlock Holmes by Michael and Molly Hardwick, novelization of the Billy Wilder movie
    Curious, but I didn't like the movie very much, so I didn't like the novelization either
  • The House of Silk by Anthony Horowitz
    Worth reading (?) but astonishingly poorly reasearched and proofread
  • A Study in Terror by Ellery Queen
    Only Ellery Queen I've ever read. Okay.
  • The Giant Rat of Sumatra by Richard L. Boyer
    Okay, good if you like whump
  • The Exploits of Sherlock Holmes by Adrian Conan Doyle and John Dickson-Carr
    Pastiche-ness too on point, fanfic-ness lacking... until the very end
  • Sherlock Holmes by David Castleman
    Good luck finding this; it's excellent though!
  • Exit Sherlock Holmes by Robert Lee Hall
    Haven't read yet


My favorite adaptations:

Sherlock Holmes (2013)
The Adventures of Sherlock Holmes and Dr. Watson (1979)
Sherlock Holmes in the 22nd Century (1999)
Sherlock Holmes (2009) and Sherlock Holmes: A Game of Shadows (2011)


P.S. I looooove Frederic Dorr Steele's illustrations if you couldn't tell. Both illustrations on this page and the one in the lefthand menu are FDS.
