New Sherlock (BBC) Gen Anthology Zine: The Science of Deduction

Pyramids Press and Gold'n Lily Press are teaming up to present The Science of Deduction, an anthology of gen stories based on Sherlock, BBC’s modern day re-imagining of Arthur Conan Doyle’s classic tales. Our central theme is the strong bonds of friendship and family between the Sherlock characters, especially John and Sherlock.

The Science of Deduction features 13 stories (230 pages) from some of the fandom's finest authors. The zine is professionally printed, perfect-bound (trade paperback), 6" x 9", with beautiful full-color cover art by [livejournal.com profile] myfieldnotes. Though we worked to get the look of the zine as close as possible to something you'd buy at a bookstore, it is a nonprofit, labor of love produced by fans, for fans. Like all Pyramids Press and Gold'n Lily Press zines, the stories are new (have not been previously published or appeared on the ‘net), gen (no slash or ship), and there are no deathfics. Ratings are G-R.

A few of the stories are mysteries. Some are predominantly action/adventure with some H/C on the side, and a few are straight character studies. I think we wound up with a good mix that reflects the spirit of the show.
