Case of the Spotted Band
￥48.95
Sorry, Holmes fans, not a snake in the entire book. The Spotted Band is a rock group of jungle cats: an Ocelot, Jaguar, Himalayan Snow Leopard and the irrepressible Cheetah, Chita. (She left Arch Villain Imperius Drake in a hurry in Book One.) The story begins in Reno, Nevada where Imperius and Bigg Baboon (recovering from their near misses with death in Book One) are searching for a replacement for Chita. They think they may have found him in an absolutely terrible magician appearing in, or being fired from, the show lounges in Reno casinos. Hairy Otter, soon to be renamed Otto the Magnificent becomes a pawn in the claws of Imperius but Otto turns out to be much more than Imperius can handle with some special talents all his own. Meanwhile, in Rio attending Carnaval for some well deserved R&R, Maury, Inspector Wallaroo and Howard Watt encounter the Spotted Band in a Brazilian bistro and the story further unfolds. They end up battling Pontius Puma, a gangster who controls all entertainment in Brazil and does substantial trading in stolen military and industrial secrets. They destroy his vast computer network with the help of L.Condor, a cyber net genius with a 12 foot wingspan and no voice. Back in the States, Imperius plans to use Otto as his Weapon of Bear Destruction. But Otto escapes and through a series of deucedly clever twists, ends up along with Chita, assisting Octavius in his simultaneous defense against Imperius and an enraged Pontius Puma who has come to Cincinnati to avenge the destruction of his empire of crime. The Puma and Bigg are arrested. Imperius Drake is believed killed in a mid-air collision with the Condor over the Ohio River. Wanna Bet?

Curse of the Mummy's Case
￥48.95
After a two volume absence, the mad duck, Imperius Drake, and his dumb heavy subordinate, Bigg Baboon return with a vengeance (literally.) Set on conquest of the cosmos, the duck has hatched (sorry) a plot to revivify a savage ancient Egyptian Pharaoh, Tsk VI and his ghost armies of crocodiles and lions. He plans to clone them and use them to overcome his enemies, real and imagined. Many new characters appear but most important are Octavius' and Belinda's twin cubs, Arabella and McTavish. (Yes, a Polar and Kodiak can have offspring.) You may remember that the "e;on again-off again"e; lovers were married offstage in Book Two. The kids start to receive signals over their Egyptian internet video game from a Uraeus, a cobra sacred to the gods and charged with protecting the tombs and mummies of the great kings of Egypt. She tells them of Imperius' plan and enlists the Great Bear's assistance. Octavius, Belinda, Maury Meerkat, the cubs, plus the usual and some new team members are called into action once again against the infamous Imperius. Chita still wants an opportunity to kill off the duck after his attempts to do her in. Who knows?

"e;Mr. Holmes is an amateur, Hopkins."e; Lestrade was smiling around the stem of his pipe as he spoke. Hopkins could hear it. "e;Not a man who works well in teams, he. He still trusts Dr. Watson not to lie to him... and Dr. Watson's pulled some whoppers to save his skinny neck in the past."e; Lestrade was still smiling. "e;Not that that's not the most interesting thing about those fellows. I could tell you some stories about them, Stanley... oh, I could tell you stories...'"e;. Meet Sherlock Holmes through the eyes of his fellow lodger once again... and meet both through the eyes of the Yard - especially those who saw them the most: Inspectors Lestrade, Gregson, and Bradstreet. From Montague Street to a supposedly straightforward case of smuggling in Cornwall, Scotland Yard saw more than the disconcerting and dazzling private detective; it also saw an admirable and steadfast British soldier who shared their need for justice. Doctor John Watson may call himself unremarkable, but the Yard would disagree...

"---this fantasy of a night-black, dead planet, with the remains of the human race concentrated in a stupendously vast metal pyramid & besieged by monstrous, hybrid & altogether unknown forces of darkness, is something that no reader can ever forger" (H. P. Lovecraft)."One of the most potent pieces of macabre imagination ever written" -?H.P.Lovecraft. Lovecraft wasn't wrong: this is, perhaps, the greatest single work of fantastic fiction in the English language. The sun has died, as have the stars. Not a solitary light shines in the heavens. The days of light are nothing by a legend?-?they are a story told to soothe children. The last millions of humans still live in their Last Redoubt -?but the end of their days is at hand.

Adventure of the Noble Bachelor

Sherlock Holmes, the world's "e;only unofficial consulting detective"e;, was first introduced to readers in A Study in Scarlet published by Sir Arthur Conan Doyle in 1887. It was with the publication of The Adventures of Sherlock Holmes, however, that the master sleuth grew tremendously in popularity, later to become one of the most beloved literary characters of all time.In this book series, the short stories comprising The Adventures of Sherlock Holmes have been amusingly illustrated using only Lego(R) brand minifigures and bricks. The illustrations recreate, through custom designed Lego models, the composition of the black and white drawings by Sidney Paget that accompanied the original publication of these adventures appearing in The Strand Magazine from July 1891 to June 1892. Paget's iconic illustrations are largely responsible for the popular image of Sherlock Holmes, including his deerstalker cap and Inverness cape, details never mentioned in the writings of Conan Doyle.This uniquely illustrated collection, which features some of the most famous and enjoyable cases investigated by Sherlock Holmes and his devoted friend and biographer Dr. John H. Watson, including A Sandal in Bohemia and The Red-Headed League, is sure to delight Lego enthusiasts, as well as fans of the Great Detective, both old and new.LEGO(R) is a trademark of the LEGO Group of Companies. The LEGO Group has not been involved in nor has it in any other way licensed or authorised the publication of this book.THE ADVENTURE OF THE NOBLE BACHELOR: Sherlock Holmes is consulted by Lord Robert St. Simon whose wife, Hatty Doran, disappeared shortly after their wedding. Inspector Lestrade of Scotland Yard is convinced that culpability rests with Miss Flora Millar, a former acquaintance of Lord St. Simon. Holmes, though,quickly discerns the true fate of Miss Doran as he realizes that the solution to this delicate problem resides in her past back in the United States.

Kellen felpaprikázott hangulatban lépett be az irodába, majd táskáját az asztalra csapva, nekiállt, hogy levetkzzn. Kabátját a fogasra akasztva, gyors pillantást vetett a tükrbe, és akkor látta meg, hogy a haja ott hátul, égnek áll. s így jtt végig az utcán! Az ágaskodó tincset lesimította, stét szemüvegét pedig kicsit feljebb tolta az orrán. Nem volt rá igazán szüksége, csupán kis dioptria volt az egyik lencsén, de úgy gondolta, a negyvenes évei elején érdekesebbé, modernebbé, talán fiatalosabbá is teszi, a stétített foncsorozású, divatos szemüveg. Ez tette-e, vagy csak a sors játszott vele aznap reggel, de minden balul üttt ki. A szemüvegtl függetlenül, stéten látta az egész világot, és benne nmagát. Ekkor kopogtak az ajtón, és a kolléganje lépett be. A harmincas, vrs kis nt lopva gyakran elnézegette, amint eltte haladt a folyosón. Jó alakú, frissen elvált asszony volt, gyerek nélkül. Azt ugyan nem tudta, van-e valakije, mégsem mert kezdeményezni. A n most mosolyogva üdvzlte, majd rákérdezett: hallottam, a kisfnk megjegyzést tett a késésedre. Mi volt veled ma reggel , minden balul üttt ki – és elkezdte mesélni a kálváriáját. A n láthatóan érdekldéssel hallgatta. Azért ezt te eltúlzod egy kicsit – mondta. Nem olyan stét a világ, amilyennek te látod! Végül is, gondolj csak bele. Sikerült bezárnod a lakásajtót Igen. Elcsúsztál a vizes kvn Nem. Na, de a járdán! – vetette kzbe. De nem trt el egyetlen csontod se! Még a kabátod se lett piszkos! Igaz. Beértél a munkahelyedre Hát persze, de el is késtem! Fejedet vették Nem. Na, látod! Vedd csak le ezt a stét szemüveget, azon keresztül látod te olyan stéten az eseményeket! Azzal, hogy szavának érvényt szerezzen, a kis vrs odanyúlt, és olyan gyengéd mozdulattal vette le az orráról a szemüveget, hogy az flért egy cirógatással! Egész melege lett tle.
