The Complete Sherlock Holmes: Sherlock Holmes is a fictional detective created by Scottish author and physician Sir Arthur Conan Doyle. The fantastic London-based ""consulting detective,"" Holmes is famous for his astute logical reasoning, his ability to take almost any disguise, and his use of forensic science skills to solve difficult cases. Holmes, who first appeared in publication in 1887, was featured in four novels and 56 short stories.

Ever since he made his first appearance in A Study In Scarlet, Sherlock Holmes has enthralled and delighted millions of fans throughout the world. Now Audible is proud to present Arthur Conan Doyle's Sherlock Holmes: The Definitive Collection, read by Stephen Fry. A lifelong fan of Doyle's detective fiction, Fry has narrated the complete works of Sherlock Holmes - four novels and five collections of short stories. And, exclusively for Audible, Stephen has written and narrated nine insightful, intimate and deeply personal introductions to each title.
He writes: "Popular fiction offers different kinds of superheroes to save the world by restoring order to the chaos, confusion and criminality of our times. Heroes with remarkable gifts are as in vogue now as they have been since they first appeared, perhaps even more in vogue. But although the very first one was launched in serial published form just like his masked and body-suited successors, it was not in DC or Marvel comic books that he made his appearance; rather it was in the sedate and respectable pages of Mrs Beeton's Christmas Annual in the mid-Victorian year 1887."
Stephen Fry is an English actor, screenwriter, author, playwright, journalist, comedian, television presenter, film director and all round national treasure. He is the acclaimed narrator of J.K. Rowling's Harry Potter audiobooks and most recently recorded The Tales of Max Carrados for Audible Studios. Stephen has contributed columns and articles to newspapers and magazines, appears frequently on radio and has written four novels and three volumes of autobiography.

The Casebook of Sherlock Holmes

Could the sudden death of Sir Charles Baskerville have been caused by the gigantic ghostly hound that is said to have haunted his family for generations? Arch-rationalist Sherlock Holmes characteristically dismisses the theory as nonsense. And immersed in another case, he sends Watson to Devon to protect the Baskerville heir and observe the suspects close at hand. With its atmospheric setting on the ancient, wild moorland and its savage apparition,
is one of the greatest crime novels ever written. Rationalism is pitted against the supernatural, good against evil, as Sherlock Holmes seeks to defeat a foe almost his equal.

'His Last Bow', the title story of this collection, tells how Sherlock Holmes is brought out of retirement to help the Government fight the German threat at the approach of the First World War. The Prime Minister himself requests Holmes's services to hunt down the remarkable German agent, Von Bork. Several of the detective's earlier cases complete the volume, including 'Wisteria Lodge', 'The Bruce-Partington Plans', and 'The Disappearance of Lady Frances Carfax'. In 'The Dying Detective', Dr Watson is horrified to discover Holmes at death's door from a mysterious tropical disease as his friend lays a trap for a murderer.

柯南道尔，1859年生于苏格兰，1885年在爱丁堡大学获医学博士学位，1902年因为对英国的南非战争政策辩护有功而封爵。他受母亲的熏陶，从小爱讲故事，在学校里是有名的故事大王。由于受侦探小说家美国的爱伦•坡（Edgar Allan Poe， 1809-1849）、英国的科林斯（Wilkie Collins， 1824-1889）和法国的加博利约（Emile Gaboriau，1832-1873）的影响，在开业行医的业余时间创作侦探小说。1886年，他以大学里一位具有惊人的观察和推理能力的教授为原型，塑造了一个私家侦探的形象，这侦探取名叫Sherlock Holmes（歇洛克•福尔摩斯），并借助其副手Dr.Watson（华生医生）讲述破案过程的结构形式，完成了第一部福尔摩斯探案小说《血字的研究》。起初投稿无人欣赏，至次年才由《比登圣诞年刊》勉强刊登发表。不过，有一家叫《利平科特》的杂志却看好他，于1890年登出了他的第二部福尔摩斯探案小说《四签名》。1891年，曾扶植过萧伯纳、克里斯蒂等多名作家的《海滨杂志》（The Strand Magazine）注意到了柯南道尔的福尔摩斯探案小说，以50英镑的优厚稿酬，发表了他的《波希米亚丑闻》（以后高至每篇100英镑）。从此柯南道尔和他笔下的福尔摩斯一起蜚声文坛。这一年，柯南道尔弃医从文，专门写福尔摩斯探案小说。

这里有史上最好看的侦探小说，这里有最睿智的大侦探福尔摩斯，他的故事总是令人拍案叫绝，一个个精彩绝伦的结局，让人恍然大悟之余大呼过瘾。
1887年，柯南•道尔历经万难，发表了第一部侦探小说《血字的研究》，从此，一位头戴黑色礼帽，手执手杖，叼着烟嘴的精明侦探风靡全球，他就是——福尔摩斯。在充满雾气的伦敦贝克街，年轻的歇洛克•福尔摩斯和从阿富汗战场受伤退役的华生医生一起，经历着惊险刺激、神秘莫测的故事……

Sherlock has retired. Now living in Sussex, he’s enjoying a pleasant walk along the beach when he runs into a friend, Harold Stackhurst, headmaster at The Gables. The two acquaintances have just started chatting when they’re interrupted by one of the teachers at Stackhurst’s school, Fitzroy McPherson. The man appears to be in a great deal of pain and only manages to mutter something about a lion’s mane before collapsing, dead. He has strange wounds on his back. Then comes another of the teachers, Ian Murdoch, who claims to have no idea what happened, having just arrived himself. But there is no one else close by.
"The Adventure of the Lion’s Mane" is part of "The Case-Book of Sherlock Holmes". Sir Arthur Conan Doyle (1859-1930) was born in Scotland and studied medicine at the University of Edinburgh. After his studies, he worked as a ship’s surgeon on various boats. During the Second Boer War, he was an army doctor in South Africa. When he came back to the United Kingdom, he opened his own practice and started writing crime books. He is best known for his thrilling stories about the adventures of Sherlock Holmes. He published four novels and more than 50 short-stories starring the detective and Dr Watson, and they play an important role in the history of crime fiction. Other than the Sherlock Holmes series, Doyle wrote around thirty more books, in genres such as science-fiction, fantasy, historical novels, but also poetry, plays, and non-fiction.
