Hello everybody, I’m new here – I’ve joined the forum specifically to ask a question, if that sounds a bit… rude I’m sorry – but please help me. Just like all of you I am a big fan of the 221b detective; I’ve read all of Conan Doyle stories (although I don’t own a “complete” Sherlock Holmes) and enjoyed very much the ’80s British series with Mr. Jeremy Brett. I even like the more recent Holmes with Johnny Lee Miller (at first I hated it, but his performance is brilliant, so I ended up loving his take on the character) I’m looking for a “complete” edition of all the Sherlock Holmes stories, short novels, and maybe lesser known pieces of prose Conan Doyle wrote about him. I’ve checked a couple of… well, very popular online bookstores and found mostly selections, anthologies, compilations, etc. On one of them I found a “previously loved” (LOL!) two-volume edition; its condition was a big put off. On the other I found editions that I find visually appealing and at an affordable price: · The Complete Sherlock Holmes (Barnes & Noble Collectible Classics: Omnibus Edition) Hardcover – 1096 pages · Complete Sherlock Holmes Collection: An Official Sherlock Holmes Museum Product Hardcover – 1096 pages – Publisher Mountain Leopard Press Could anybody confirm (or not) that they are the “complete” stories? If not, could anybody recommend which edition I should look for and buy, offer an alternative? I would appreciate any advice/input/feedback from you. Hope to join one of your discussions one of these days; thank you in advance, Oudis -

Hi All, I am a Holmes fan and author who has written a number of Sherlock Holmes stories which I think have a pretty original twist. In my stories Holmes lives in Baker Street, however it's the Baker Street in Middlesbrough. My Holmes is a working class lad brought up in present-day Teesside, the result being a kind of nature versus nurcher study. How much of him is the skills endowed upon him by mother nature, and how much of him is taken from the community around him? The first six of my stories were published in November last year and have had excellent feedback from all quarters. It would be very interesting to know what those of you on here think. Hopefully some of you will like the concept, however I suspect some purists may not. The Kindle preview on Amazon covers most of the first story, A Scandal in Boro. Search Amazon for "Melvyn Small" or use the link on my website www.melsmall.com. Here's looking forward to some feedback, bad or, hopefully, good. Kind Regards Mel
