There is a new leader on the chart - well, a new collection from an old leader. Caiden Cooper Myles is back with his third collection and a very fast start to take the top spot from 2026's top selling collection from Bill DeFeo. The new leadership may be short lived however as Bill's third collection - Hearthside at Baker Street came out a few days before the end of the month and has already climbed to #16.  A very strong showing from newcomer Gustavo Bondi at number 4 and Ken Courtenay remains the bestselling novelist with both of his...

Margaret Walsh (Holmes Author) I received a copy of “this book”The Further Memoirs of Sherlock Holmes III” by Caiden Cooper Myles from MX Publishing to review. As the title suggests, this is the third book of his Sherlock Holmes short stories. Caiden Cooper Myles has delivered the goods once again. Six excellent stories with the flavour of Arthur Conan Doyle. The stories are each distinct, but are linked together by the thread of a common enemy. Holmes and Watson are well written and very much in character. Something that is very important to me. A fantastic read. Highly recommended.  ...

Tom Turley (Sherlockian Author) Having dealt with most of “the Immortals” (e.g., Mark Twain, Stephen Crane, Sinclair Lewis) in his American Literati series of Sherlock Holmes pastiches, Daniel D. Victor has lately turned to lesser-known—but still engaging—authors such as Frank Norris, Julian Hawthorne, and Anna Katharine Green. Here his subject is Carolyn Wells, who wrote almost two hundred mysteries and other works between 1896 and 1942. Many featured Fleming Stone, her stand-in for the Great Detective. In Victor’s latest book, as always, Dr. Watson presents the factual case (1906) behind Wells’ novel The Disappearance of Kimball Webb (1909), the only...

"La romancière pour la première fois Margaret Walsh nous a apporté une nouvelle aventure couvrant le type de cas qui n'aurait pas été inclus dans The Strand. De toute évidence, les types de crimes et les détails médico-légaux graphiques sont quelque chose que Watson, en tant que médecin, aurait fidèlement enregistré, même s'il ne pouvait pas le partager avec le public. Situé au début de 1889, peu de temps après les meurtres brutaux de l'Éventreur, une nouvelle série de crimes terribles cible un groupe peu connu de Londoniens. Au fur et à mesure que les événements se déroulent, le nombre...

It's a flying start to September for Sherlock Holmes audiobooks with several new entrants into the chart - including the top three slots. It looks like its the end of the dominance of The Baker Street Bookshelf which has held the top spot most of the year but with a new collection coming from William P Defeo I wouldn't rule out a return to the top.  The Further Memoirs of Sherlock Holmes Volume III already has 21 reviews (4.1 average rating) and the other two volumes have made a return to the top 10 as the new book shines a...
