SHADOWS OVER BAKER STREET: New Tales of Terror! /edited
As horror makes its way back to many publishers’ wish lists, we thought we’d share this backlist title that is truly a gem of amazing horror stories by some of the best writers in the business.
SHADOWS OVER BAKER STREET was originally published as a hardcover in 2003, and in trade paperback in 2005. It’s an exciting short story collection where Sherlock Holmes enters the nightmare world of H. P. Lovecraft, and includes the Hugo Award-winning story "A Study in Emerald," by Neil Gaiman.
More about this collection:
The terrifyingly surreal universe of horror master H. P. Lovecraft bleeds into the logical world of Sherlock Holmes, Sir Arthur Conan Doyle’s champion of rational deduction, in these stories by twenty top horror, mystery, fantasy, and science fiction writers.
Arthur Conan Doyle’s Sherlock Holmes is among the most famous literary figures of all time. For more than a hundred years, his adventures have stood as imperishable monuments to the ability of human reason to penetrate every mystery, solve every puzzle, and punish every crime.
For nearly as long, the macabre tales of H. P. Lovecraft have haunted readers with their nightmarish glimpses into realms of cosmic chaos and undying evil. But what would happen if Conan Doyle’s peerless detective and his allies were to find themselves faced with mysteries whose solutions lay not only beyond the grasp of logic, but of sanity itself?
In this collection of all-new, all-original tales, twenty of today’s most cutting-edge writers provide their answers to that burning question.
