81 New Holmes Adventures - Collected in Four Companion Volumes
Somewhere in the vaults of the bank of Cox and Co., at Charing Cross, there is a travel-worn and battered tin dispatch box with my name, John H. Watson, M.D., Late Indian Army, painted upon the lid. It is crammed with papers, nearly all of which are records of cases to illustrate the curious problems which Mr. Sherlock Holmes had at various times to examine . . . . - Dr. John H. Watson
So wrote Dr. Watson in The Problem of Thor Bridge - and ever since, Sherlockians have been bringing us new adventures from this legendary tin dispatch box. While Watson's original First Literary Agent only edited the pitifully few sixty stories that make up the original Canon, there have since been literally thousands of traditional adventures about the true Sherlock Holmes - and there will never be enough!
In 2015, The MX Book of New Sherlock Holmes Stories burst upon the scene, featuring adventures set within the correct time period, and written by many of today's leading Sherlockian authors from around the world. Those first three volumes were overwhelmingly received, and there were soon calls for additional collections. Since then, their popularity has only continued to grow. Now, ten years later, the series draws to a close, having grown to 52 massive volumes and over 1,000 stories. Along the way, the author royalties from these books, featuring stories and poems from over 200 contributors worldwide, has raised over $135,000 for the Undershaw school for special needs children, located at one of Sir Arthur Conan Doyle's former homes.
The 81 thrilling stories in these four companion volumes - Parts 49, 50, 51, and 52 - feature Holmes and Watson carrying out their masterful investigations from the early days of their friendship in Baker Street to the post-War years during Holmes's retirement. Along the way, Our Heroes are involved in a plethora of fascinating mysteries - some relating Untold Cases, others sequels to Canonical adventures, and a number of others that progress along completely unexpected lines. Join us as we return to Baker Street and discover more authentic adventures of Sherlock Holmes, described by the estimable Dr. Watson as the best and wisest . . . whom I have ever known.
