    Sherlock Holmes has long been a popular character for pastiche, Holmes-related work by authors and creators other than Arthur Conan Doyle. Their works can be grouped into four broad categories:
    • new Sherlock Holmes stories;
    • stories in which Holmes appears in a cameo role;
    • stories about imagined descendants of Sherlock Holmes;
    • and stories inspired by Sherlock Holmes but which do not include Holmes himself.

    Sherlock Holmes and the Mummy's Curse - Stephanie Osborn

    CywyvtK.jpg

    Holmes and Watson. Two names linked by mystery and danger from the beginning.

    Within the first year of their friendship and while both are young men, Holmes and Watson are still finding their way in the world, with all the troubles that such young men usually have: Financial straits, troubles of the female persuasion, hazings, misunderstandings between friends, and more. Watson’s Afghan wounds are still tender, his health not yet fully recovered, and there can be no consideration of his beginning a new practice as yet. Holmes, in his turn, is still struggling to found the new profession of consulting detective. Not yet truly established in London, let alone with the reputations they will one day possess, they are between cases and at loose ends when Holmes' old professor of archaeology contacts him.

    Professor Willingham Whitesell makes an appeal to Holmes’ unusual skill set and a request. Holmes is to bring Watson to serve as the dig team’s physician and come to Egypt at once to translate hieroglyphics for his prestigious archaeological dig. There in the wilds of the Egyptian desert, plagued by heat, dust, drought and cobras, the team hopes to find the very first Pharaoh. Instead, they find something very different...

    There is always room in the world for more gripping tales about the exploits of the inimitable Sherlock Holmes and the redoubtable Dr Watson. Here is a collection of five previously unknown cases from the astonishing career of the consulting detective and his ever-loyal partner.

    An Affair of the Heart demonstrates the critical interplay between the two men which made their partnership so memorable and endearing. The Curious Matter of the Missing Pearmain is a classic locked-room mystery, whileThe Case of the Cuneiform Suicide NoteseesDr Watson using his expert knowledge in helping to solve the mystery surrounding the death of an academic. In A Study in Versethe pair assists the Birmingham City Police in a complicated case of robbery which leads them towards a new and dangerous adversary. And to complete the collection, we have The Trimingham Escapade, the very last case the pair enjoyed together, which neatly showcases the inestimable talents of Sherlock Holmes.

    All of these tales are designed to contribute in some small part to the lasting memory of two extraordinary men who once occupied that setting we have come to know and love as 221B Baker Street.

    The Secret Notebooks of Sherlock Holmes - June Thomson

    BexXIjN.jpg

    In Sherlock Holmes’s London, reputations are fragile and scandal can be ruinous. In order to protect the names of the good (and not-so-good), Dr Watson comes to the decision that his accounts of some of his friend’s most brilliant cases must never see the light of day. And so he conceals the manuscripts in an old despatch box, deep in the vaults of a Charing Cross bank...

    Now, outlasting the memories of those they could have harmed, these mysteries finally come to light. An aluminium crutch betrays the criminal who relies upon it for support... An Italian Cardinal lies dead in a muddy yard in Spitalfields... What do a pair of suspiciously successful gamblers have in common with the Transylvanian mind-reader, Count Rakoczi? And can Holmes and Watson outwit the jewel thief who has the nerve to steal from the King of Scandinavia?

    The Secret Journals of Sherlock Holmes - June Thomson

    PSj3lKY.jpg

    As Dr Watson’s secret manuscripts are revealed to the public, a multitude of previously unseen cases come to light. An American millionaire receives threatening letters from a sinister Black Hand . . . A mysterious box terrifies a shopkeeper . . . Holmes and Watson feel the influence of an old enemy from beyond the grave . . . And a tragedy occurs which Sherlock Holmes will never be able to forgive himself for failing to prevent.

    From the smoky streets of London to a countryside mental institution, the renowned detective and his faithful sidekick Watson must use all their cunning to solve this array of mysteries. Murders, madness and diamonds abound as June Thomson continues the Holmes canon with a brilliance and ingenuity that perfectly captures where Conan Doyle left off.

    I disagree with you.
    I doubt, there's anyone who hasn't read those 60 stories yet.
    Do you think, the most will like to read the same story over again.

    Yeah thats true indeed.But anyway anything written by any other writer than Sir.Arthur Conan Doyle feels inadequate or less skilled writing.You can always identify the void of his great constructive storytelling.Which makes the other writers seems like they are still in the infant level when compared to Sir Arthur's ingeniousness.But it is still plausible when you become such an avid fanatic of the great Sherlock Homes character.That you are compelled to relive the character in any form......:):yes:

    No doubt about it, certainly.
    Keeping the characters still alive is also important anyway.
