I didn't see a topic with all the Sherlock stories listed so I thought to make one. If there already is one general topic for these stories, I apologize and moderators feel free to lock this.

I'm reading this finnish Sherlock short story collection and have read the stories "A Scandal in Bohemia", "The Adventure of the Red-Headed League" and "A Case of Identity" so far and really liked them all. The second one reminded me of Woody Allen's movie SMALL TIME CROOKS where the guys put up a pastry shop as a front to be able to dig a tunnel in the basement to the bank next door. I wonder if Woody's read the book in question.

Here you can have general discussion of all the short stories and novels. So, who here has read all ACD's Sherlock stories? Which do you prefer of the novels? I've only read Baskervilles so far and loved it.

4 novels:

"A Study in Scarlet" (published 1887)
"The Sign of the Four" (published 1890)
"The Hound of the Baskervilles" (serialised 1901–1902 in The Strand)
"The Valley of Fear" (serialised 1914–1915)
