Jonathan Goodwin Don't Go Into The Cellar, Mr Holmes : Sherlock Holmes Stories

This book contains five scripts, three of which I owe a great debt of gratitude to Tony Reynolds as they are adaptations of stories taken from his wonderful book of Sherlock Holmes stories The Lost Stories of Sherlock Holmes The Adventure Of The Medium, The Giant Rat of Sumatra and The Adventure of The Amazonian Explorer. As for the others, "Holmes Alone" is a lighthearted romp, that borrows elements and characters from several other Conan Doyle tales. "The Mazarin Malediction" is my attempt to embellish that oftmaligned story, "The Mazarin Stone". Almost always its this story in particular that is singled out for harsh criticism. Yet I have always enjoyed the tale, and the others in the collection entitled "The CaseBook of Sherlock Holmes". "Malediction" is my homage to ACDs original, written and performed with great affection and enjoyment. To paraphrase Sir Arthur Conan Doyle. I have wrought my simple plan if I brought one hour of glee to the Sherlock fan, and the Doyle devotee. | Jonathan Goodwin Don't Go Into The Cellar, Mr Holmes : Sherlock Holmes Stories
