About this listen

The beginning of a beautiful friendship!

For all we know, or think we know, about Sherlock Holmes and Doctor Watson, what we don’t know is far, far greater. In the duo’s first case, A Study in Scarlet, we learn that Holmes and Watson met on January 1st, 1881, and subsequently moved into an apartment together at 221b Baker Street. Their first case officially began on March 4th of that year, and it is argued that “The Adventure of the Resident Patient” possibly took place in October of 1881, depending on which version of the story you read. But what happened during the rest of 1881? Or all of 1882?

To help fill the void, we have asked today’s top Sherlockian writers to rummage through their Watsonian correspondence and uncover the many mysteries left untold until now. There’s a new story for every month of the year!

As with any set of stories by multiple authors some are better than others. Some stories contradict each other but overall not bad.

Good series

Something went wrong. Please try again in a few minutes.

Some excellent stories, superbly read by a superb English narrator (unlike the narrator of the first book in this series, who was American and, in my opinion, terrible. I really think Sherlock Holnes stories should be read by English voice actors, ir Americans who can do perfect posh English accents.)

But I will now purchase the remaining audiobooks available in this series based on this book, all read by the same narrator.

Super pastiches
