The Hoka stories were fun to read! <br /><br /> And I don't think it's necessarily implausible to think there might be a wildly imaginative race somewhere in the universe which insists on playing roles within literature they love. But, I think Anderon and Dickson were also indulging in some gentle satire in the Hoka stories.<br /><br /> And, yes, this particular story shows Anderson's affection for the Sherlock Holmes stories. I've seen Sir Arthur Conan Doyle's stories praised not only as works of mystery but also for being excellent works of literature.<br /><br /> SeanSean M.
