And speaking of pastiches, this one is free from the author @ Smashwords (may be price-matched elsewhere):

Time for Sherlock Holmes by David Dvorkin (ISFDB), an sfnal Mars-visiting time-traveling adventure, originally out from Dodd Mead in 1983. Dvorkin, who is incidentally a Star Trek tie-in novelist, also offers a lot of other sfnal shorts and novels (some of them small-press backlist) free via his author page @ Smashwords.

Sherlock Holmes meets H G Wells, discovers the secret of immortality, hunts Professor Moriarty across time and space, and manipulates the destiny of mankind, all with the unflinching support of the stalwart Dr. Watson, who is coping with finding and losing the love of his life.

Just to expand a bit on David Dvorkin:

He has about 17 or so titles (the Sherlock Holmes novel being one of them) that are all free.

I got everything but two titles.

From Amazon, they all cost money......
