A review by wmhenrymorris
Gaslight Grimoire: Fantastic Tales of Sherlock Holmes by Charles Prepolec

Well-written fan fiction it is, but it's still, essentially fan fiction, and, no offense, to Sherlock Holmes fans, but as much as I love the original stories, I'm not convinced that there's enough complexity to the Holmseian world support this type of effort -- or perhaps these just aren't the right stories to convince me of that (it probably doesn't help that I read this while in the middle of reading a massive Jack Vance festschrif which is totally awesome).

That said, some of these stories are fun. A couple are even quite good. And if you are a major fan of all things Holmes and Watson, you might like this anthology quite a bit.
