Young Sherlock Holmes is a series of young adult thriller novels by Andrew Lane featuring Arthur Conan Doyle's detective Sherlock Holmes as a teenager in the 1860s that is faced with numerous crimes and adventures throughout the series.Based on the success of Charlie Higson's bestselling Young Bond series, the estate of Sir Arthur Conan Doyle authorised a series of books detailing the life of the teenage Sherlock Holmes.One of Andrew Lane's key aims is to explain some of the complexities of Holmes' character, who is scientific and analytical on the one hand, and artistic and moody on the other. Two new characters introduced in this series, his two tutors, Amyus Crowe and Rufus Stone, help shed light on the formation of the two sides of his character evident in later life.Books in the Young Sherlock Holmes series are: Death Cloud (2010) Red Leech (a.k.a. Rebel Fire) (2010) Black Ice (2011) Fire Storm (2011) Snake Bite (2012) Knife Edge (2013) Stone Cold (2014) Night Break (2015)Aside from both featuring a teenage Sherlock Holmes, the book series has no connection to the film of the same name. | |

Foregone Conclusion: While Night Break ends with Sherlock losing his trust in his brother Mycroft, the original canon still shows that the relationship between the Holmes brothers is amicable as seen in "The Greek Interpreter" and Mycroft is the only one who knew that Sherlock survived his fight against Professor Moriarty in Reichenbach Falls. | |

Crazy-Prepared: In The Reed Leech, the heroes assume that the villains won't be able to target them as they sail to America due to not knowing what ship they're on. It turns out that the villains bribe a crewman on every ship sailing from England to America during that timeframe to kill any passengers who fit their description. | |

Have You Told Anyone Else?: In Death Cloud, the villains capture Sherlock and demand to know who else he's told about the bee attacks. He names four of the five other people (leaving out someone who lives nearby and would be easier to kill than the other four) who know. Baron Maupertuis unhappily notes that this is too many people to kill (specially since they're not all close together) and decides he needs to accelerate his plan instead. He still tries to kill Sherlock, though. | |

In the afterword, Andrew Lane planned to continue the story but he implied that the publishers won't let him. Thus, young Sherlock Holmes' story ends with a Cliffhanger. | |

The Dog Bites Back | |
| Young Sherlock Holmes / int_fb3576b2 | comment |
The Dog Bites Back: In Red Leech, the Big Bad Duke Balthassar has a pair of cougars that he uses as Right Hand Attack Dogs: having semi-trained through a combination of fear and cruelty. Sherlock is able to turn them against Balthassar by giving them a taste for his blood (by feeding them the eponymous red leech) at a point when he is in a weakened position. Balthassar falls off a cliff attempting to escape them. | |

Weapon Specialization | |
| Young Sherlock Holmes / int_fc148c2c | comment |
Weapon Specialization: Mr. Surd, The Dragon to Baron Maupertuis in Death Cloud, uses a metal-tipped whip as his preferred weapon and is an expert in its use. He is capable of pinpoint accuracy, doing such acts as deliberately missing Sherlock's eye by millimeters. | |
