Sherlock Holmes, in my opinion, is the best detective of all time. I always wish I had his mind! I particularly like the Hound of the Baskervilles. A very good story.

My favorite story is "The Adventure of the Empty House"! Sherlock Holmes is back after a decade (or 2 years in his time)!

I love all Sherlock Holmes Stories. I don't have any particular favorites. Sherlock Holmes is so great. I wish I can deduce and observe like him!

I love Sherlock Holmes, but my favorite character in the series is the too littly mentioned Mycroft Holmes. He was the one who helped Sherlock go into hiding when Moriarty tries to push him off the cliff. If it wasn't for him, Moriarty's henchmen might have found Sherlock.

I too am a huge fan of Sherlock,(I have The Complete Sherlock Holmes with all of Doyle's Holmes stories) but i am fortunate enough to have the powers of deduction that he has (i have to work on my observation skills) but i am often able to solve the mysteries before i read their conclusions.

For those in the Boston area, the Museum of Science is hosting a FREE program on Wednesday, October 17 at 7 pm called "The Science of Sherlock Holmes" featuring author EJ Wagner. Tickets are first-come, first served beginning at 5:45 pm in the Museum lobby.

My favorite Sherlock novel is part 1 of The Valley of Fear. Of the short stories, my top five are The Bruce Partington Plan, The Six Napoleons, The Speckled Band, The Red Headed League, and Silver Blaze. I like the way Holmes sees things that nobody else does, or does'nt think that it's important. Like curried mutton for dinner, the kind of knife in the victim's hand, the other guys bill in the pocket, the lameness of the sheep, and of course, the curious incident of the dog in the middle of the night.

my favorite mystery is the hound of baskerville

All adventures are great. Holmes is the Greatest.

where can i read mystery novels online?

It's not easy, they're copywrited. The Gutenberg Project does have many wold works, so there might be something there if you know the title or author. But it certainly wouldn't be anything newer than 75 years or so?

Hello All: So what's the reaction to the new Holmes film due next year (2010)? I say it will energize viewers to read the Conan Doyle stories, and increase the demand for more Holmes movies. Let's hope so, anyway. Best always, Chris.

I thought fans of Basil Rathbone and Nigel Bruce might be interested in a collection of their old radio shows. Mill Creek Entertainment"s "The Best of Sherlock Holmes" has 50 on episodes on 25 discs all starring Rathbone and Bruce except for "The Haunting of Sherlock Holmes" where Ben Wright stood in for Nigel Bruce who was ill for that episode. The sound quality is excellent on 46 of the episodes. 4 still have good sound quality but were not remastered. They are older shows not found on the Simon and Shuster collection. For less than $25.00 it is a great buy.
