Combine two obsessions in one: for those addicted to video games and Sherlock Holmes comes the new Sherlock Holmes - The Awakened, a 3-D video game for the computer. Here are a couple of screenshots:
The game looks a bit gruesome, but it received an 8.3 out 10 at Gamespot.
If you're a fan of mystery novels, you might enjoy Jack and Beverly's collection of Sherlock Holmes memorabilia, but the real example of Manchegan Madness today comes from The Wolfe Pack, a society devoted to detective Nero Wolfe:
The Wolfe Pack, founded in 1978, is dedicated to the celebration of America's greatest - and largest - detective, Nero Wolfe, and his world. The Pack publishes a semiannual journal, the Gazette, and sponsors several events each year including a shad roe dinner in the spring and, our oldest tradition, The Black Orchid Banquet, in December.Check out the society's website where you can join in Nero Wolfe book discussions, learn about winners of the Nero Wolfe award, and explore the A&E Nero Wolfe TV series. There's even a link to a set of Nero Wolfe dolls. Madness indeed.
