Sherlock Holmes and the Sport of Kings Oxford Bookworms Library 1
Horseracing is the sport of kings, perhaps because racehorses are very expensive animals. But when they win races, they can make a lot of money too money for the owners, for the trainers, and for the people who put bets on them to win. Silver Blaze is a young horse, but already the winner of many races. One night he disappears from his stables, and someone kills his trainer. The police want the killer, and the owner wants his horse, but they can't find them. So what do they do? They write to 221B Baker Street, London, of course to ask for the help of the great detective, Sherlock Holmes.
Sherlock Holmes: Two Plays
Sherlock Holmes is the greatest detective the world has ever seen, and he knows it. As the famous bank-robber, John Clay, says to him, 'You think of everything, Mr Holmes. You're very clever.' People come to him with problems that no one, not even the police, can solve. Holmes sits, and thinks, and smokes his pipe, and in the end he finds the answer. In these plays, based on two of his stories, Holmes, helped by his old friend, Dr Watson, uses his great intelligence to solve two unusual and interesting cases.

Dartmoor. A wild, wet place in the south-west of England. A place where it is easy to get lost, and to fall into the soft green earth which can pull the strongest man down to his death. A man is running for his life. Behind him comes an enormous dog - a dog from his worst dreams, a dog from hell. Between him and a terrible death stands only one person - the greatest detective of all time, Sherlock Holmes.
The New Annotated Sherlock Holmes - The Novels
The publication of Leslie S. Klinger's brilliant new annotations of Sir Arthur Conan Doyle's four classic Holmes novels in 2005 created a Holmes sensation. Klinger reassembles Doyle's four seminal novels in their original order, with over 1,000 notes, 350 illustrations and period photographs, and tantalizing new Sherlockian theories. Inside, readers will find:
A Study in Scarlet (1887)-a tale of murder and revenge that tells of Holmes and Dr. Watson's first meeting;
The Sign of Four (1889)-a chilling tale of lost treasure...and of how Watson met his wife;
The Hound of the Baskervilles (1901)-hailed as the greatest mystery novel of all time; and
The Valley of Fear (1914)-a fresh murder scene that leads Holmes to solve a long-forgotten mystery.
Whether as a stand-alone volume or as a companion to the short stories, this classic work illuminates the timeless genius of Conan Doyle for an entirely new generation.

Lacná kniha Z krajin soumraku (-70%)
Do dějin vstoupil jako autor postavy slavného detektiva Sherlocka Holmese; kromě toho však napsal celou řadu povídek a románů, ovlivněných jeho zájmem o spiritismus, okultní a duchovědná bádání a také o záhrobní skutečnosti.
V knize Z krajin soumraku se A. C. Doyle představuje prostřednictvím kratších próz, které se zabývají nadpřirozenými úkazy, tajuplnými zjeveními a - dnes bychom řekli - parapsychologickými fenomény. Jeho povídky jsou napínavou četbou, která poskytuje témata k zamyšlení nad morálkou a duchovními kořeny novodobé společnosti.

Sir Arthur Conan Doyle, a bűnügyi történetek nagymestere Sherlock Holmes alakjának megalkotója ezúttal a túlvilággal és az elhaltak szellemével való kapcsolat létrehozásáról vall, valamint egy új vallás kialakulásáról. Elemezve a szellemtan mibenlétét és a túlvilág felépítését - így vélekedik erről:
"Vagy teljes őrültségről van szó, vagy a vallásos világnézet átalakulásáról, mely tökéletesen felpáncéloz a halálfélelemmel szemben..."
