1 Book Title: House of silk About the Author Anthony Horowitz, OBE is ranked alongside Enid Blyton and Mark A. Cooper as "The most original and best spy-kids authors of the century." (New York Times). Anthony has been writing since the age of eight, and professionally since the age of twenty. In addition to the highly successful Alex Rider books, he is also the writer and creator of award winning detective series Foyle s War, and more recently event drama Collision, among his other television works he has written episodes for Poirot, Murder in Mind, Midsomer Murders and Murder Most Horrid. Anthony became patron to East Anglia Children s Hospices in On 19 January 2011, the estate of Arthur Conan Doyle announced that Horowitz was to be the writer of a new Sherlock Holmes novel, the first such effort to receive an official endorsement from them and to be entitled the House of Silk.
2 Book Title: House of silk About the Book London, B Baker St. A fine art dealer named Edmund Carstairs visits Sherlock Holmes and Dr John Watson to beg for their help. He is being menaced by a strange man in a flat cap - a wanted criminal who seems to have followed him all the way from America. In the days that follow, his home is robbed, his family is threatened. And then the first murder takes place. THE HOUSE OF SILK bring Sherlock Holmes back with all the nuance, pacing, and almost superhuman powers of analysis and deduction that made him the world's greatest detective, in a case depicting events too shocking, too monstrous to ever appear in print...until now.
3 Book Title: House of silk Discussion Questions 1. Anthony Horowitz's acknowledgements say, "Writing this book has been a joy and my hope is that I will have done some justice to the original." If you are an avid reader of Arthur Conan Doyle's novels, how does Anthony Horowitz's version compare? 2. "Holmes, you insist upon seeing yourself as a machine." John Watson. Do you believe this to be so? Or do you think that Dr. Watson is oversimplifying Holmes character based on previously solved cases? 3. When following Holmes's logic, do you believe that he is drawing the right conclusions and assumptions based on the evidence provided in the novel? Would his conclusions be probable in the real world or in the historical narrative? 4. What were your reactions to the realization of what the House of Silk was and what it entailed? Were you surprised by Horowitz's evolution of the novel? 5. Did John Watson and Sherlock Holmes reveal new sides of their characters in this novel? Did the other characters especially the various criminals come to life and become human beings or merely ghastly versions of villainy? 6. Watson writes, "For all men are equal at the moment of death and who are we to judge them when a much greater judge awaits." Do you agree, even if the person in question tried to harm you or your family?
4 7. What would your reaction be if you had been Holmes or Watson in this case of the House of Silk? Would your actions or reactions be any different regardless of sex, religion or creed? 8. There were two mysteries to be solved the case of the Man in the Cap and the House of Silk. Detective Lestrade oversimplified one and had no clue of the other. Do you believe that Holmes is a better detective merely because he became so entrenched in the mystery, or is he like Dr. Gregory House and addicted to puzzles?
5 Book title: House of silk Reviews "Exceptionally entertaining... one can only applaud Horowitz's skill... impressive... an altogether terrific period thriller and one of the best Sherlockian pastiches of our time." The Washington Post "The latest edition to [Sherlock's] distinguished legacy...admirers of Horowitz's ITV series, Foyle's War, and Sherlockians will delight in equal measure. With consummate grasp, Horowitz unfolds an intricate and rewarding mystery in the finest Victorian tradition...for all its deft and loving fidelity, THE HOUSE OF SILK sees the great detective in grisly and unfamiliar straits." Vanity Fair "Cliffhanger plotting... Watson's elegiac voice should silence the objections of even the most persnickety Sherlock scholar." NPR "A book firmly rooted in the style of Doyle, faithful to the character as created and with just enough wiggle room to allow the author to say all the things he's been longing to say about the world of 221B Baker Street...THE HOUSE OF SILK will satisfy." The Huffington Post "The hype surrounding what's being billed as the first pastiche ever officially approved by the Conan Doyle estate is amply justified... authentic. Horowitz gets everything right-the familiar narrative voice, brilliant deductions, a very active role for Watson, and a perplexing and disturbing series of puzzles to unravel-and the legion of fans of the originals will surely be begging for Horowitz to again dip into Watson's trove of untold tales." Publishers Weekly (starred review) "Nicely captures the storytelling tone of Holmes' inventor in a galloping adventure that boasts enough twists, ominous turns and urgent nocturnal escapades to make modern moviemakers salivate... Author Horowitz delivers some dramatic tableaux in these pages, including a railway robbery, a prison escape and a horse-drawn carriage chase... the Holmes we see here is just as cryptic and clever as we've come to expect." Kirkus Reviews
6 "Horowitz truly pulls off the wonderful illusion that Arthur Conan Doyle left us one last tale... Close your eyes and you can smell the shag tobacco of Holmes' church warded pipe as he sorts through the evidence." San Diego Union Tribune "Worthy of [its] canonical inspiration... an impressive read... Horowitz plots masterfully, foregrounding Holmes' trademark investigative techniques against Watson's pacey narration." The Milwaukee Journal Sentinel "A tone-perfect, action-packed story of corruption, greed and dissolution, all the while capturing the sights, smells and social problems of 1890's London...This reader, albeit no Holmes expert, totally forgot the novel wasn't from Doyle himself." The Cleaveland Plain Dealer "An homage to the Holmes canon; Horowitz does a fine job with the atmospheric setting and tense plotting, and he captures Watson's voice and Holmes' character well. The crimes they uncover will, even in the 21 st century, have a shocking ripped-from-the-headlines impact." St. Petersburg Times
