I was a little disappointed in this collection. I guess I interpreted “inspired by” to mean more Holmes canon based stories and not just any story that had some Holmes or Doyle reference in it. Only a few stories actually features Holmes or other characters from Doyle's canon - which is what I was looking for in this type of collection.[a:Neil Gaiman 1221698 Neil Gaiman http://photo.goodreads.com/authors/1234150163p2/1221698.jpg]'s story was by far the best, in my opinion. If you read any of these stories, definitely check that one out. I wanted it to keep going!If you like Sherlock Holmes stories because of the mystery and suspense, you would enjoy this. However, if you're like me and enjoy the canon more for the characters and their interactions than the plots, only a few of these will interest you. Support your local library and check it out there instead of buying.
