If Arthur Conan Doyle had teamed up with H.G. Wells and Jules Verne to write his Sherlock Holmes stories, I am sure the result would have been something like James Lovegrove's "The Stuff of Nightmares".
I enjoyed the book and its steampunk-ish ideas. One leap in logic that did not land on a firm footing early on in the novel did not settle well with me and stuck in my craw enough to outweigh what was a generally well written Holmes pastiche.
