The complete collection ofSherlock Holmes's adventures in crime, including all four novels and fifty-six short stories featuringSir Arthur Conan Doyle'sclassic hero Volume I includes the early novel A Study in Scarlet, which introduced the eccentric genius of Sherlock Holmes to the world. This baffling murder mystery, with the cryptic word Rache written in blood, first brought Holmes together with Dr. John Watson. Next, The Sign of Four presents Holmes's famous "seven percent solution" and the strange puzzle of Mary Morstan in the quintessential locked-room mystery.Also included are Holmes's feats of extraordinary detection in such famous cases as"The Adventure of the Speckled Band,""The Musgrave Ritual,"and"The Five Orange Pips." Volume II begins with The Hound of the Baskervilles , a haunting novel of murder on eerie Grimpen Moor, which has rightly earned its reputation as the finest murder mystery ever written. The Valley of Fear matches Holmes against his archenemy, the master of imaginative crime, Professor Moriarty. In addition, the loyal Dr. Watson has faithfully recorded Holmes's exploits from "The Adventure of the Red Circle"to the twelve baffling enigmas from The Case Book of Sherlock Holmes . Conan Doyle's incomparable tales bring to life a Victorian England of horse-drawn cabs, fogs, and the famous lodgings at 221B Baker Street, where for more than forty years Sherlock Holmes earned his undisputed reputation as the greatest fictional detective of all time., The complete collection of Sherlock Holmes's adventures in crime, including all four novels and fifty-six short stories featuring Sir Arthur Conan Doyle's classic hero Volume I includes the early novel A Study in Scarlet, which introduced the eccentric genius of Sherlock Holmes to the world.

  • The King of Detectives

    How can you go wrong with the great Holmes? And what could be better than the entire world of Sherlock's mysteries in the palm of your hand in paperback? I have only read the introduction so far, but I am very intrigued. Something I've always wanted to read.

  • Good

    I like the content, and the price was ok, BUT did not realize the books would be so difficult to use. The books are extremely small, and difficult to keep open. Have trouble reading the material near the binding (center). I wish that I had purchased a different type that would have been easier (and) more pleasant to use...

  • Great classic stories

    Wish I had come across Sherlock when I was a kid. Storytelling ahead of its time. So well described you can easily imagine yourself right there with Holmes, Watson, LeStrade & Moriarty.

  • Nice to read a book written in proper English.Suspenseful and entertaining.

    These are classic stories that have entertained for years and reading them is so much better than seeing them on the screen, where so much is deleted. Books like these are always so nice to curl up with and enjoy. I haven't gotten to the next volume yet, but am looking forward to it.

  • Great reading all in one place
