Clever Mix of Legends | AstraDaemon

Sir Magnus Holmes, cousin to the more famous Sherlock, is asked to investigate the appearance of an otherworldly knight carrying a legendary sword in the cellar of a Victorian London pub.

THE CASE OF THE SOMEWHAT MYTHIC SWORD by Garth Nix mixes bits and pieces of two legends, from different time periods, and throws in his own unique creation to create a supernatural crime drama.

I am surprised at how much I enjoyed this short story, and I'd love to see a mini-series centered on Sir Magnus and his keeper Susan.

As always,
