Cloaked in gothic shadows, soaked in blood, darkness descends on the world of Sherlock Holmes. ¿I have heard, Mr. Holmes, that you can see deeply into the manifold wickedness of the human heart.¿ Vengeance from beyond, forbidden passions and sadistic cruelty draw the great detective and his faithful companions into storms of madness and otherworldly violence which threaten to cloud the clarity of logic. Facing the eldritch reach of ancient talismans and arcane science, from the streets of London and Paris to the loneliest of manor houses, the great detective battles the weird and uncanny. Can steadfast reason hold against unspeakable terror when Sherlock Holmes can no longer eliminate the impossible? Follow the great detective through ten new tales of terror as he doggedly pursues investigations leading him to the edge of reason and beyond! Contributions by: David Stuart Davies, Lyndsay Faye, Nancy Holder, Mark A. Latham, James Lovegrove, Mark Morris, Charles Prepolec, Josh Reynolds, Angela Slatter, Kevin P. Thornton, and Stephen Volk.… (más)

I like this concept a lot, but I think that maybe the idea of supernatural Sherlock Holmes takes it a little too far from the cold logic of original flavor Sherlock Holmes. I did think the stories were well written and that all of the authors did a great job of portraying the characters. The plots varied in strength, but I thought they were pretty well crafted.

If you disagree with me and think that Sherlock Holmes and supernatural goes together well, then I'd definitely recommend this collection to you, as I think you will really enjoy the well-crafted stories and inventive ideas. If you are not sure if supernatural belongs in the Holmes world this might not be the book for you. (

A collection of ten Sherlock Holmes stories of varying standard but the one that stood out for me was “Father of the Man by Stephen Volk" apart from being a good well-written and interesting story it contained the characters of Edgar Allan Poe and Auguste Dupin.

It's odd that such a rational character as Sherlock Holmes lends himself so well to tales of the more fantastical bent. Gaslight Gothic features ten tales of Holmes investigating crimes of a Victorian Gothic bent; although not all of the stories are to my particular taste, they all do a good job of blending the Great Detective and the less rational world of the Gothic.

This collection of short fiction written as versions of Sherlock Holmes stories with Gothic twists was a fun read. The stories ranged from fantasy to horror, yet contained all the essential trademarks of a good Sherlock story. Highly recommended. (

I enjoyed the different stories of Sherlock Holmes; it was more of a Gothic modern version, I thought, compared to the historical Victorian age. I think the various authors all did a nice job portraying the characters and the descriptions of the scenes gave me a sense of being there and identifying with the characters, especially Dr. Watson. This book was a fast read and could be read in parts as each story was individual. (
