5.0 out of 5 stars The Chinese Box Mysteries, Vol. I & II., October 21, 2000

This review is from: Chinese Box Mysteries Set (Vols. I & II) - Sherlock Holmes (Hardcover)

Mr. Kilcup has done an outsanding job. Not only does he present a dozen hithertofore unpublished tales of everyone's favorite dectective, he puzzles the reader by relating his ancestral relationship to the venerable Dr. Watson. Good stuff! But for the idle mention of Legos, and a few other contemporary references, one would be hard-pressed to not attribute the whole of it to Mr. Doyle.
