What's this? Do you mean Peter and the Sword of Mercy (2009)?

Great series.

There is a fifth book, The Bridge to Neverland (2011), wasn't quite the same though. Also it left on a massive cliffhanger and hasn't been revisited, maybe because it flopped (IMO)?

Currently reading The Hound of the D'Urbervilles, by Kim Newman.

He writes Alternate Universe takes on PD stuff, I really liked his Anno Dracula (Dracula won, took over England, vampires mainstreamed, and then Stuff Happens).

That ^^ reminds me I should really get around to reading books 2+


The Hound of the D'Urbervilles is the diary of Sebastian Moran, right-hand man to Professor Moriarty, as they engage in a really weird mirror of some of Sherlock Holmes' most famous cases.
