'Starred Review. Sherlockians and more casual Holmes fans alike will delight in this comprehensive edition of the 56 original short adventures....First-time readers might want to skip Klinger's brief intros to each tale, as they presume familiarity with the plot and often hint strongly at the solutions.' - PW.
'The result is a beautiful and thoroughly enjoyable edition that somehow manages to synthesize all that has come before, and will appeal to both first-time readers and seasoned veterans.' - The Washington Post.
'A handsome addition to general public or academic library collections. Norton will complete the collection by publishing a third volume in November 2005, which will contain four novels of Sherlock Holmes and 300 more illustrations.' - Library Journal
