Thirteen authors, including Narrelle M. Harris, Jody Lynn Nye, and
Sarah Stegall, come together in the second edition of Baker Street
Irregulars to pen an original collection of short stories on the
iconic and timeless character, Sherlock Holmes. In this new edition
of Baker Street Irregulars, a cast of authors riff on the iconic
figure of Sherlock Holmes in over a dozen captivating new ways. In
Keith DeCandido's "Six Red Dragons," Sherlock is a young girl in
modern New York City. In Sarah Stegall's "Papyrus," Sherlock is a
female librarian in ancient Egypt. In Daniel M. Kimmel's
mesmerizing "A Scandal in Chelm," Sherlock is a rabbi. Derek Beebe
sends Sherlock to the moon, while Mike Strauss, in "The Adventure
of the Double Sized Final Issue," casts him as a comic book
character. The backdrops run the gamut from a grade school
classroom to Jupiter, from rural, post-Civil War to an alien
spaceship. While preserving the timeless charm and intrigue of
Sherlock Holmes, these authors pen stories of the world's greatest
detective as you've never seen him before.
Thirteen authors, including Gail Z. Martin, David Gerrold, and
Jonathan Maberry, come together to pen short stories innovating
Sherlock Holmes, adapting and revolutionizing the iconic character.
Sherlock Holmes is one of the most iconic and lasting figures in
literature. His feats of detection are legendary, and he continues
to capture audiences today in stories, movies, and on TV. In this
new anthology, Baker Street Irregulars, authors present the
celebrated detective in more than a dozen wildly entertaining new
ways. In Ryk Spoor's thrilling "The Adventures of a Reluctant
Detective," Sherlock is a re-creation in a holodeck. In Hildy
Silverman's mesmerizing "A Scandal in the Bloodline," Sherlock is a
vampire. Heidi McLaughlin sends Sherlock back to college, while
Beth Patterson, in the charming "Code Cracker," turns him into a
parrot. The settings range from Russia in the near-future to a
reality show, from a dystopian world to an orchestra. Without
losing the very qualities that make Sherlock so illustrious a
character, these authors spin new webs of mystery around their own
singular riff on one of fiction's truly singular characters.

"New York Times" bestselling author Robert Asprin and Jody Lynn Nye
up the ante in the latest tale of dragons in the Big Easy
As head dragon and owner of a successful gambling operation in New
Orleans, Griffen McCandles has a lot on his plate. Especially since
the Krewe of Fafnir-a society of dragons-has asked him to be the
king of their Mardi Gras parade. Being the king is a huge honor,
and despite the extra responsibilities, Griffen can't resist the
Krewe's offer to lead the biggest party of the year.
But not everyone is happy with Griffen's new leadership status. A
group of powerful dragons is out to bankrupt his business, from the
inside out. And when a young dragon in Griffen's employ is
murdered, it becomes clear that certain dragons will stop at
nothing to dethrone the new king...
View our feature on Robert Asprin and Jody Lynn Nye's "Dragons
Deal."
