700 Sherlock Holmes Bookmarks

[swissmarg]

As of yesterday, I now have 700 bookmarks on AO3, all but one, as far as I recall, for fan fiction based on various versions of Sherlock Holmes. I don't even want to guess how many millions of words they encompass, but that certainly represents a good chunk of my life over the past two years.

The 700th bookmark was for a great fic, too, so I'll link it here:

The Madness Of Angels * (87455 words) by ayalesca

Summary: Urban fantasy AU. In which John Watson is a war sorcerer recently invalided home from Afghanistan. In London he meets Sherlock Holmes, the world’s most irritating urban sorcerer and only consulting detective. There, John finds himself and Sherlock suddenly under attack by a mysterious and malevolent power—and drawn into a mystery that may tear London apart. A fusion with the Matthew Swift series by Kate Griffin, but no prior knowledge is needed.

*This fic has been deleted, but you can still find it (at the moment) here: HTML / PDF

The bookmarks are all sorted into collections, which you can read more about here if you're interested.

Sadly, Ayalesca left AO3 last month and deleted all their fics in all fandoms. I'm not sure why. I do have a copy of the epub, courtesy of another fan. If anyone wants it, they can message me.

Oh, too bad. I have a copy of this too in .mobi format (for Kindle).

Would you mind sharing the .mobi with me? I keep forgetting that .mobi is what I need for the Kindle. *blush*

One thing's this has taught me is that if I adore a fic I need to download it in case this happens. So many things can happen to make fics disappear, even accidents unintended by the author.

There is this converter which I like: http://www.2epub.com/

You can convert from epub to mobi there. But I can send you the file too. Just PM me your email address.
