For the Sake of the Game
Author: Laurie R King
Publisher: Simon and Schuster
ISBN: 1681779455
Category : Fiction
Languages : en
Pages : 249
Book Description
For the Sake of the Game is the latest volume in the award-winning series from New York Times bestselling editors Laurie R. King and Leslie S. Klinger, with stories of Sherlock Holmes, Dr. Watson, and friends in a variety of eras and forms. King and Klinger have a simple formula: ask some of the world’s greatest writers—regardless of genre—to be inspired by the stories of Arthur Conan Doyle. The results are surprising and joyous. Some tales are pastiches, featuring the recognizable figures of Holmes and Watson; others step away in time or place to describe characters and stories influenced by the Holmes world. Some of the authors spin whimsical tales of fancy; others tell hard-core thrillers or puzzling mysteries. One beloved author writes a song; two others craft a melancholy graphic tale of insectoid analysis. This is not a volume for readers who crave a steady diet of stories about Holmes and Watson on Baker Street. Rather, it is for the generations of readers who were themselves inspired by the classic tales, and who are prepared to let their imaginations roam freely.

Book Description
Sherlock Holmes’ wit and wisdom, combined with some sly illustrations, will help you deduce the best way to mindfully solve the mysteries of modern life! In our pursuit of happiness, is it possible we have overlooked some crucial clue? Time to turn your days into a thrilling adventure! The game's afoot. In this age of nano-tech and quantum physics, the thinking of Sherlock Holmes returns to remind us that success in life depends on noticing the tiny details that others do not. "You know my method. It is founded upon the observation of trifles." (Holmes) If you find life puzzling and incomprehensible, who better to help you understand what's going on than Sherlock Holmes? Holmes reminds us that life makes a lot more sense if you know what to look for. Listen to Holmes and you'll know that life isn't random. Holmes has lots of life lessons to offer us. His great career wasn't only down to spotting clues. He was a specialist in deduction, a master of disguise, a genius at setting traps and a prince of daring-do, happy to brave a moor at midnight and face a demon hound. He also knew how to choose his friends, and find the perfect ally in his dear Watson. After all, the great detective unmasked the Sussex Vampire, caught the Creeping Man and destroyed the evil genius Moriarty. Compared to this, shouldn't our worries be a piece of cake? Illustrated with Glenn Dakin's trademark witty cartoons and insightful observations.
