Arthur Conan Doyle’s master criminologist Sherlock Holmes continues to delight readers around the world more than a century after he first appeared in print (in 1887’s A Study in Scarlet). The digital age has only increased his popularity: amid the onslaught of contemporary crime fiction there is something reassuring about the classic one volume set of the complete Sherlock Holmes. In Sherlock Holmes: The Ultimate Collection you will find all four Sherlock Holmes novels - A Study In Scarlet, The Sign of the Four, The Hound of the Baskervilles, The Valley of Fear - as well as the short story collections The Adventures of Sherlock Holmes, The Memoirs of Sherlock Holmes, The Return of Sherlock Holmes and His Last Bow - Some Reminiscences of Sherlock Holmes.

    Thanks, looks like I already grabbed it in August 2016.

    "Our records show that you already purchased Sherlock Holmes: The Ultimate Collection (Illustrated) on 3 Aug 2016."

  • "You purchased this item on 4 August 2016." LOL

    Just get it from Project Gutenberg (a not-for-profit entity that's been digitizing public domain books for almost as long as the internet has existed). Install the Magic Catalog on your Kindle and download this, and several hundred thousand other free eBooks any time you like.

    Most of the Sherlock Holmes content (except some of Case Book - not included here) is public domain, so digital copies should be free, forever.

  • I feel like this is free more than it isn’t.

      Given the content is out-of-copyright and in the public domain, that's how it should be.

    But a good deal, so +1.

  • Good for kids or has adult content?

      It depends on you and your kids. I read these stories when I was a kid, and was fine… there's murder, poisoning, etc. but they're in most fairytales anyway,

      If anything, the stiff, formal, Victorian English is likely to put them off more than anything in the plot.

      There’s also some drug use - e.g. cocaine and morphine. However, recommended for its humour, historical setting and for expanding vocabulary.

  • Anyone even read them by now? And I'm sure I've got a few versions of these. Thanks to Dealbot 😂

    Just checked, and I now have 18 different “ultimate” “complete” Sherlock Holmes sets! You don’t have to be the worlds’ greatest detective to work out what’s going on here…
