[QUOTE="Falconer, post: 121077, member: 1195"] I'll say this..it isn't Sir Arthur Conan Doyle but it is Sherlock Holmes. Does that make sense? Many have captured Holmes' social facade and trubute to clever deduction but not his persona. I think that's because Doyle was living it in his mind and as a doctor was able to give another perspective that some others come short of. That's Just my opinion. I read a book titled "The rivals of Shelock Holmes" back in 1979 and struggled with it. Most of these stories were written between the time Holmes was written of as dead and his return in the Hound of the Baskervilles. The Strand tried to fill the gap Doyle left for about 7 years. Today I think the same way even though there are some new innovations by new authors. I can't help feeling they are trying to fill in for Doyle. Valky [/QUOTE]
