The Mammoth Book of New Sherlock Holmes Adventures

by Mike Ashley

512 pages · First published 1997

This large anthology invites modern mystery writers to create new cases featuring Sherlock Holmes while remaining in conversation with Arthur Conan Doyle’s original detective. The stories vary in setting, tone, narrator, and degree of fidelity, but all draw on Holmes’s methods, Watson’s companionship, or the mythology surrounding Baker Street. Multiple authors allow the collection to explore possibilities a single pastiche novel could not sustain. Edited by Mike Ashley, the volume is designed for readers who enjoy seeing how later writers reinterpret one of detective fiction’s most durable characters.
