DOWNLOAD EBOOKIn the third week of November, in the year 1895, a dense yellow fog settled down uponLondon. From the Monday to the Thursday I doubt whether it was ever possible from our windowsin Baker Street to see the loom of the opposite houses. The first day Holmes had spent in crossindexing his huge book of references. The second and third had been patiently occupied upon asubject which he had recently made his hobby--the music of the Middle Ages. But when, for thefourth time, after pushing back our chairs from breakfast we saw the greasy, heavy brown swirl stilldrifting past us and condensing in oily drops upon the window-panes, my comrade's impatient andactive nature could endure this drab existence no longer. He paced restlessly about our sitting-roomin a fever of suppressed energy, biting his nails, tapping the furniture, and chafing against inaction.

DOWNLOAD EBOOKFor the Sake of the Game is the latest volume in the award-winning series from New York Times bestselling editors Laurie R. King and Leslie S. Klinger, with stories of Sherlock Holmes, Dr. Watson, and friends in a variety of eras and forms. King and Klinger have a simple formula: ask some of the world’s greatest writers—regardless of genre—to be inspired by the stories of Arthur Conan Doyle. The results are surprising and joyous. Some tales are pastiches, featuring the recognizable figures of Holmes and Watson; others step away in time or place to describe characters and stories influenced by the Holmes world. Some of the authors spin whimsical tales of fancy; others tell hard-core thrillers or puzzling mysteries. One beloved author writes a song; two others craft a melancholy graphic tale of insectoid analysis. This is not a volume for readers who crave a steady diet of stories about Holmes and Watson on Baker Street. Rather, it is for the generations of readers who were themselves inspired by the classic tales, and who are prepared to let their imaginations roam freely.
