As a serious Sherlockian, I loved this collection of bits and pieces which adds to the cannon very nicely.
While some of the serious essays can be a bit dry, the collection of new stories and parodies more than makes up for that. Many of the parodies made me laugh out loud, causing more than one person to turn to look at me in surprise.
This book will be going to a place of honor subsequent to my complete collection of Doyle's original cannon work on the great detective.

...mostly interesting, occasionally excellent or pedestrian. I found the editor's own essay tedious. Overall good fun.

I enjoyed this anthology immensly. Some of the pastiches Mr. Kaye included were among the best Neo-Sherlocking I've ever read (I particularly enjoyed "The Unmasking Of Sherlock Holmes" by Arthur Chapman.) and I agree with most of his opinions on The Canon. But who does he think he is calling the brilliant performance of Jeremy Brett as Holmes an "outrage and an abomination"?! He also says he will not mention the Brett series in his Holmesian catalogue. You just did Marv!
