His medical background greatly influenced his writing, allowing him to weave intricate plots that often involved elements of forensic science.

The character of Sherlock Holmes became immensely popular, leading to numerous sequels and adaptations. Doyle's contributions to literature extend beyond detective fiction, as he also wrote historical novels, science fiction, and plays.
