What can I say about the second anthology of Mr. Sherlock Holmes? Eleven stories: some outstanding, some good, some okay ... I guess that seems to be the way with collections. Overall? Delightful. My favorites include "Silver Blaze", "The Musgrave Ritual", "The Greek Interpreter" (hello, Mycroft!), and of course, "The Final Problem" (let's kill off Sherlock and see how the public reacts!). A joy to reread. #againandagain
