Interesting facts pertaining to the Sherlock Holmes novels.......2007-08-10
Having been brought up on the edge of Dartmoor,in Devonshire, SW England,where the Hounds of the Baskervilles story was located I found the annotations to that novel to be very interesting and, more importantly, factual even to the minor details that were mentioned.
I have no doubts whatsoever that the facts connected to the other three novels are just as accurate.
I have thoroughly enjoyed this book and would recommend it to any Sherlockian.
A BEAUTIFUL EDITION ~~~to place beside The Short Stories.......2007-07-16
This volume completes this edition of The Annotated Sherlock Holmes. What a beautiful set of books to ponder they are!
Myself, as with many of you, have "grown up" or "lived" with the great sleuth for many years, and it is, of course, for us, wonderful to open this beautiful volume, containing the four complete novels, lovingly annotated in the margins with tons of observations, thoughts, etc., on the great man and his times, and also, of course, on his great nemesis, Moriatry. It's just wonderful to sit comfortably and re-read, ponder, and think about this great character, his creator, and perhaps just smile upon doing so.
This great set of four of the greatest detective stories, along with the two volume companion with the 56 short stories, truly does belong on the shelves of anyone who likes both great writing, and also great detective stories, especially about the "Great" Holmes, whom you'll read over and over and over, enjoying them just as much the 12th time as the first!
Do yourself a Great Favor, and add this wonderful volume to your library...You Won't Be Sorry! ~operabruin
The four novels - in all their annotated glory!.......2007-06-27
This volume is a companion to the two-book set that covers the 56 short stories. Mr. Klinger has done an outstanding job of annotating and describing enough details in each novel to delight the casual reader or the devoted Holmes fan. Most Sherlock Holmes enthusiasts consider their annotated edition of the canon to be the centerpiece of their Holmes library. If you enjoy Sherlock Holmes, you will love this edition.
sherlock holmes novels.......2006-11-06
the stories are wonderful. the 100th anniversary editions are all charming. the re pore between Holmes and Watson is the definition of a true friend. the methodology of Holmes as alway is fascinating.
Great Book -- Get It.......2006-01-20
I first read the Sherlock Holmes stories in high school. Then in grad school (1967) came the two volume 'The Annotated Sherlock Holmes' by William S. Baring-Gould (sadly available now only used). Down through the years I guess I've re-read it every decade or so. Now Mr. Klinger has come out with 'The New Annotated Sherlock Holmes.' I didn't think that it was possible to improve on the Baring-Gould book, but Mr. Klinger has done so.
Besides Baring-Gould, there have been several other writers who have produced books on Holmes. Mr. Klinger seems to have researched them all and summarized their views, particularily where differences exist. For instance, the date that 'The Sign of the Four' took place is fairly important to Sherlockians. Mr. Klinger gives the dates calculated by sixteen different books.
Also added in this edition is a large number of drawings and photographs. Some of these come from the Strand Magazine and date back to the publication of the original story in the late 1800's and early 1900's. Some photographs come from the various movies including my favorites with Basil Rathbone and Nigel Bruce. Others come from book covers, movie posters.
Conclusion: Great Book. If you've done the Sherlock stories without an annotated version, you're in for a real treat. If you have an earlier annotated version, you need this one to complete the set.

Product Description
Starred Review. Eminent attorney and Sherlockian Klinger completes the daunting mission he began with 2004's two volumes examining the original 56 short stories to feature the great detective with this robust third book containing the four Holmes novels. All the gifts that netted Klinger an Edgar Award for best critical/biographical work are again in evidence: clear definitions of obscure terms, pithy discussions of some of the issues that have puzzled and delighted Holmes fans for generations (where exactly was Watson wounded?) and lucid essays (which legend inspired The Hound of the Baskervilles?). Klinger manages the difficult feat of appealing both to those new to the world of Sherlockian scholarship and to those who can quote the stories like gospel. Ample use of illustrations, some from the novels' original appearances, adds to the enjoyment. A must-have for any serious mystery fan, this edition will stand as the benchmark for generations to come.

Good "Maiden" voyage.......2003-07-04
"The Sword of Maiden's Tears" is an unusual crossover novel. It's urban fantasy mixed with horror, but done satirically, and done with great flair by Rosemary Edghill (definitely one of my favorite writers).
It's rare to see urban fantasy done with humor, although it happens. I've almost never seen horror done with humor, so mixing the three together was a very nice touch.
The character that struck me the most was Michael, an ex-cop graduate student in library science. (Well, all the friends are studying to be librarians, and none of them are truly suited to it.) Michael has a depth, weight and richness to him that makes me wonder what happens to him after this novel; as I've skim-read the next two in the series, so far Michael has not reappeared. I'm hopeful that at some point, Ms. Edghill will find a way to write a book about him, because that man still has much to say.
As for Ruth, the titular heroine, and Melior, the titular hero, they aren't usual by anyone's standards. Melior is either a raving lunatic or an obsessed fanatic, take your pick; he's likable because he doesn't want the Earth to disappear (even though he doesn't like New York at all), and it will if the grendel-thing isn't stopped, and because of his nearly instantaneous passion for Ruth.
Ruth, however, is a bit of a cipher. She spent eight years in a coma, is now biologically thirty but acts much younger and has almost no self-confidence and little to no experience in dating (as she spent almost all her time since "awakening" in school, preparing to become a librarian). She's smart, tough, and witty, but there's something just a bit off about her . . . something that is disclosed in the contents of "Sword of Maiden's Tears."
The others of the circle of friends include Naomi, a sort of earth mother who cooks, cleans and mother hens everyone within reach; Jane, who's another character I'd dearly love to find out about, as she's young, smart, tough, nobody's fool, and trying her best despite not believing much in herself; and Philip, a computer hacker with much agita and angst, who sticks around mainly because he likes Naomi and wants to figure out what the rest of them will do next.
There are several ways to interpret this book; in a way, it's like Maeve Binchy's "Circle of Friends," except done in 1980s New York amongst a bunch of library students, rather than in Ireland in the 1950s. The relationships and interrelationships between the students and Melior are what makes this novel; what adds immeasurably to it is the wittiness and sarcasm that permeates this book.
This isn't Ms. Edghill's best book; that one remains (in my opinion) the recently released "Vengeance of Masks." It's also not quite as good as the Bast novels, and I'd rate it a shade below "The Warslayer," too.
But there's much to recommend it. It's humorous, good natured, witty, and engaging; what else can you ask for, really, when you're looking for entertainment?
Pamela Dean meets a slasher movie.......2002-08-24
I've become a bit of a Rosemary Edghill fan lately, so I opened the cover of this foray into urban fantasy with anticipation. It takes place in New York in the eighties (take note of the clothing styles for a nostalgic chuckle). Thrust into the teeming streets of New York City is elfin lord Melior--and of course, as an out-of-towner, he gets mugged almost instantly. The mugger steals his magic sword and leaves him bruised and shaken. Melior is taken in by a young grad student, Ruth, and gets to know her and her circle of friends. This circle of friends is the best part of the book. Ruth, Philip, Jane, Naomi, and Michael are all intelligent misfits, drawn together by the feeling that they don't fit in anywhere else, and sharing a tight but often uneasy bond. The unofficial "den mother" of the bunch is Naomi; the group spends most of their time at Naomi's apartment, eating Naomi's cooking, and quoting dead poets. In a way, they're a lot like the dorm gang of Pamela Dean's "Tam Lin"--except with more angst. For several of the friends are hiding secrets and emotional wounds.
Melior's addition to the group changes everything; the friends fight over whether to help him find the sword, and whether he's really an elf. But if he's an elf--and not a loony or a con artist--they'd better find the sword soon. It is cursed. Any human who touches it will turn into a cannibalistic monster obsessed with two things: eating people, and hanging on to the sword. And the monster can only be killed by--you guessed it--the selfsame sword. New York is in trouble.
Unfortunately, the main plot of this book is a little too "slasher movie" for my taste. It isn't bad, but it's violent and sort of simplistic. I almost felt like the interesting characters were wasted on a plot that's mostly "run around New York trying to find this thing without getting killed". I would have liked a more complex plot, not to mention a better-developed romantic subplot. Melior and Ruth meet. BAM! Love. That's about it. I am looking forward to further characterization and character development in the second book, "The Cup of Morning Shadows".
I Wound Up Liking It Better The More I Read.......2001-11-28
The main story is that Rohannan Melior (of a different world/dimension(?)) arrives in NYC as a result of his quest to find a sword that's been stolen from his family, and which will result in their disgrace and banishment their land's Court if it isn't returned soon. Of course, as soon as he arrives, he is mugged and the sword is stolen. Unfortunately, if a human handles the sword, they will shortly tranform into a ravaging monster with a craving for human flesh. RM hooks up with a group of mismatched Columbia University friends, and the quest is on to find the sword.
At first, I didn't like any of the characters except RM - the stranger in an even stranger land. They didn't seem to ring true, their speech patterns or something didn't seem right for their ages, or maybe they didn't behave as my college friends and I did. But gradually, once the background of some of the characters was revealed, their behavior became more understandable, given their flaws. (Though I still found myself checking the copyright date a couple of times.) There was still a little too much pretentious quoting and epigram-throwing for them to be believable, but I guess the author had to get it out of her system. The mugger who wound up with the sword was a tragic character, slowly taking that one extra step at a time that was leading him away from his dreams.
I wasn't all that happy with the ending until I realized that it was just the set-up for the sequel, which I will try to read. It was an interesting book, worth reading, but the characters could have been a little less stereotypical.
Elves in NYC, and a Grendel in the Subways . . ........2001-09-06
I really identified with the characters in this book, perhaps because most of them are around my age and living in a similar area to where I live. This is a well told, emotional and complex tale of an elf-lord in NYC and the treasure he must find. The ending sticks in my memory. (I won't spoil it here for those who haven't read this yet.) This book appealed to me more than the others in this series, I enjoyed finding out what happened later on. By the way--anyone who reads this will recognize the Babylon nursery rhyme reference, try checking out Deep Secret by Diana Wynne Jones.
Okay, that being said, this book struck me with a strong sense of deja-vu. Many years ago I encountered a book called THE GLOVE OF MAIDEN'S HAIR. The book, by Michael Friedman, is about an elf-lord magically transported to a modern-day city. He's the one who rescues the heroine from muggers, but there is a lot of this story that parallels. The style and the emotional quality and the actual stories themselves are very different, but if you liked this you might want to see if you can find a copy of THE GLOVE OF MAIDEN'S HAIR, it's a little dated, but worth a read.
I loved this book.......2001-06-05
Wow. What a way to start a series! I couldn't put this book down until I finished it (which wasn't really the smartest thing to do, with finals and all). The story is wonderfully written, and very unique. Has there ever been a heroine in a story who's a normal librarian? The ending actually almost had me in tears, since it's so different from what I expected. I agree with the person who said it first; have the second book ready! And when you read that one, be sure to have the third book ready! :)

Book Description
On the lam from a vicious ex-wife who'd won everything but the kitchen sink in the divorce, Ken MacKay was a journeyman crew member on Rustam's Slipper, the sorriest scow ever to move cargo between stars.
Then in a low-class spacers' bar in a miserable town on a no-name world he met Catarina Lindquist, the kind of girl his mom had always warned him about. She had alabaster skin, platinum hair, and slender legs that went from here to there and back again via the scenic route.
Catarina's yen for Ken was almost as strong as her passion for chocolate. Alas for Ken, Catarina's other obsession was infectious, and so was she. Soon, Ken too needed chocolate to control the symptoms of McLendon's Syndrome-- they'd live damn near forever but they'd always have a Chunky (tm) on their back.
Soon Naval Intelligence found a devious use for their mutual affliction: it assigned Ken and Catarina to the planet Macdonald, whose nonhuman inhabitants had a quaint theory about the true Secret Masters of the Human Race . . .

Vampires in Space, part two.......2006-11-21
This is the second of two brilliantly funny science fiction adventures set in a universe where incompetence has been elevated to an art form.
It is also a universe in which doctors have diagnosed a disease called "McLendon's Syndrome" (which provided the title of the first book), symptoms of which include very pale alabaster coloured skin, inability to tolerate direct sunlight, etc - yes, most of the disadvantages associated in medieval times with vampires. And some of the abilities and advantages as well.
Ken McKay was a crew member on a ship called the "Rustam's slipper", described as "the sorriest scow ever to move cargo between the stars" when he met and fell in love with a gorgeous woman called Catarina Lindquist in the first book. Unfortunately she had McLendon's syndrome - and not long after they became an item, so did he.
But human Naval intelligence has a use for two vampires - send them on a mission to the planet MacDonald.
If you've read any of Keith Laumer's Retief books, then
1) you can think of the inhabitants of MacDonald as the equivalent of the Groacci, and
2) If you liked the Retief books you will absolutely love "McLendon's Syndrome" and "The VMR Theory."
The inhabitants of MacDonald are split into many factions who have various theories about how powerful the humans are and whether attacking us is a good idea. One of these factions believes in the "VMR Theory" which stands for "Vampire Master Race" Theory.
Human intelligence has some plans to influence that theory - plans which might have been described as the stupidest ideas in the universe until Ken and Catarina find out what sort of mad ideas the inhabitants of MacDonald come up with ...
Enormous fun and very strongly recommended.
Hilarious, don't miss the other book in this series!.......2004-09-07
This book was a sequel to the excellent McLendon's Syndrome. Both books were hilarious! They are Frezzas only comedies. He should write more comedies! (Frezza also did a three book series that was a very depressing tragedy. - A Small Colonial War / Fire in a Faraway Place / Cain's Land) I love Robert Asprin's similar farces, but Frezza's two books are superior. The first person account from the vantage point of a somewhat 'normal' hero (Ken McKay) does a good job of putting the reader in the story. You get the feel of a person trapped in the ludicrous, insane events unfolding around him. If you like humorous sci-fi, don't pass this up. The VMR Theory only suffers from the fact that it follows a work (McLendon's Syndrome) which is impossible to top.
Amazing.......2003-10-14
After reading McLendon's Syndrom, I immediately hopped onto Amazon.com and bought his 4 other books. My entire set of AOL Instant Messenger away messages is currently comprised of quotes from VMR Theory. Every time I read Frezza's books, I enjjoy them more. Someone help me put this book down, I've got studying to do!
Nine confused people descend on Mcdonald with a vengeance.......1999-08-09
This book was hilarious. Between Catarina's bad puns and the antics of Mickey, Minnie, and Bunkie, not to mention Ken, Harry and the gang, I was rolling on the floor. I must have the first book!!!! He must write a sequel!!!! More messed up people than the Mcdonalds I've never met. And this crew could scare and destroy the galaxy!
YOu must read this book! Its great!!!!!
TeeHee and ROTFLMAO!.......1999-01-03
I picked it up because my innitials are VMR... a fact which only made the thing funnier :)
I may not have McLendon's, but I have been called a vampire, and I most certainly think that we constitute the master race. So there.
Actual review: This is one of the funniest books I've ever read. I'm not entirely sure wether to call it satire or random sillyness with a binding.
"Refreshing!" "Unpredictable!" "He bought the WHAT!?!"

Customer Reviews:
Good stuff.......2007-09-29
Good cookbook, but a lot of recipes involve multiple stages such as sauces or stocks that are made seperately. Book was lost in mail and took 4 weeks for delivery.
A good introduction to Latin American Cuisine.......2005-03-16
If this book was about latin american cuisine, I would give it four stars. The writing is great, and Chef Van Acken's philosophy (on food and life) is well worth reading. The recipes are feasible and delicious if executed correctly; something easy to do with some knowledge on food. I love this book, and go back to it often for inspiration, but it's still a book about New World Cuisine, and the Chef leaves his signature in every recipe, therefore the preparations are not authentic.
I have given 5 stars to this book because I value Norman's input. He is a phenomenal cook and a creative chef. His food should not be missed when visiting Miami and his knowledge on the ingredients and techniques from Latin America is exceptional. I wish the book was longer, with more recipes and longer stories, as I truly believe this author teaches through his books.
This is great book for the home cook and the professional alike. If you enjoy these recipes, and there's no reason why you shouldn't, then you will become curious about the food from my area of the world. For that I should always be grateful to Chef Van Acken.
A Rich Sampler of Pan American Cuisines.......2004-01-21
The multi-award winning Norman Van Aken of the restaurant `Norman's' in Miami has done us a great service by providing us this survey of New World Latin cooking plus a precis of the many influences which have borne on these cuisines. The geographic range of the recipes is truly impressive. The countries or regions to which the recipes are attributed are:
Pan Caribbean 19 recipes
Pan Latin 19 recipes
Cuba 19 recipes
Mexico 18 recipes
Peru 14 recipes
Brazil 12 recipes
Colombia 9 recipes
Venezuela 8 recipes
Nicaragua 5 recipes
4 recipes: Argentina, Chile, Jamaica, Puerto Rico, Trinidad
2 recipes: Ecuador, Guatemala, El Salvador
1 recipe: Bahamas, Bolivia, Central America, Dominica, Martinique, Panama, Uruguay
The book also includes several pantry, sauce, and mixed drink recipes not attributed to any specific region. The pantry recipes owe much to classic French technique, which Van Aken taught himself early in his career. The recipes for chicken and pork stock follow traditional methods, but they include a lot more ingredients than the French classics. Most notable additions are wine, mushrooms, tomatoes, and chiles.
The large number of recipes from Mexico and Cuba are expected for a chef working in Miami, especially with the acknowledgments he gives to Rick Bayless and Diana Kennedy, our leading experts on Mexican cuisine. The emphasis on Peru becomes obvious when you see the references to Nobu Matsuhisa, who worked for many years in Peru and who has popularized many dishes based on Peruvian themes and foodstuffs.
The sizable body of congratulatory blurbs on the back cover of the book from the likes of Nobu, Mario Batali, Charlie Trotter, Todd English, and Emeril Lagasse attest to the quality of his cooking and, more importantly for you the reader, the quality of his researches into this `New World Cuisine'. I think the most important quality of the book is not culinary invention. Van Aken is not taking any credit for creating these recipes. His accomplishment is in the collecting and exposition of these recipes and their most important ingredients for us.
Van Aken is especially wise to not call this Latin American cuisine, as he makes it clear that the cuisine of the lands south of the Rio Grande have been created by an amalgam of Native American, Spanish, East Indian, Chinese, Japanese, African, Portuguese, Italian, and Polynesian influences. While Van Aken claims credit for inventing the phrase `fusion cuisine' it is plain that `fusion cuisine' has been going on in the New World since South American (Polynesian?) mariners carried plants from Pacific Islands to South America's Pacific coast. This activity expanded with a vengeance in both the old and new worlds as American foods such as corn, tomatoes, potatoes, and chiles were taken to both Europe and Asia and Old World foods came to America. For example, Italian and Sechuzen cuisines changed dramatically with the introduction of tomatoes and chiles respectively.
One of Van Aken's contributions to these recipes is to replace original peanut or palm oils with canola or grape seed oil. It's interesting to note that deep frying was never done in pre-Columbian America, as the natives, even the Aztecs and the Incas did not refine oils in sufficient quantities to use it as a deep frying medium. Another addition by Van Aken is wine and beer pairings with recipes. It is possible that he also contributed to the use of European fortified wines in recipes, although that may very easily be a Portuguese addition.
The background information on major ingredients and major influences is almost worth the price of admission. This is not a scholarly book, a thorough study of one or a few cuisines in the style of Diana Kennedy on Mexico or Paula Wolfert on Morocco. But its contents have much of the authority of a scholarly work. It is a sampling of recipes from many lands which makes this a much more valuable book to the typical foodie. All the recipes are first rate stuff, presented by a passionate and talented chef.
I highly recommend this book as an introduction to the cuisines of the Caribbean and of South America. The bibliography will also offer many sources of additional information on this cuisine. This book is worthy of Norman's colleagues' praise.
Captivating and excellent.......2003-11-11
Just like the other reviewer wrote, this is the first cookbook I've read cover to cover in a while. It is extensive - you won't want for recipes on anything - from appetizers right through dessert and cocktails. It fits a definite void in my cookbook collection too - I have some 50+ cookbooks but nothing like this book. Nearly every recipe sounds delicious, and the writing is easy going and reflects the author's clear enthusiasm for cooking and Latin American/Caribbean food and culture. My only wish is for more photos. The ones included are beautiful, but I count only 32 (4 sections of 8 each). Still don't let that stop you from getting this captivating, unique cookbook that I'm sure will be a great culinary jouney for me, and become a classic in my library.
What a gem of a cookbook!.......2003-09-30
This is the first cookbook that I have read cover to cover in quite a while. I ordered this along with about 5 other cook books, and of the order, this is the only one that I kept. The recipes are written clearly, my only qualm would be that some ingredients arent listed with other names that might be known be.. ie.. scotch bonnet chilis is the only name given, and to me, that isnt their most common name... nonetheless, the recipes so far have been a joy to make, I have only made two or three so far.. the nicaraguan salad, flank stank in red chimichurri sauce, and fried onions in cheese.. all were yummy, and I cant wait to try more.. this is definately a keeper of a cookbook!
