On his birthday, here are ten Arthur Conan Doyle Quotes:

Once you eliminate the impossible, whatever remains, no matter how improbable, must be the truth.
Life is infinitely stranger than anything which the mind of man could invent.
It is a capital mistake to theorise before one has data. Insensibly one begins to twist facts to suit theories, instead of theories to suit facts.
Mediocrity knows nothing higher than itself, but talent instantly recognises genius.
Skill is fine, and genius is splendid, but the right contacts are more valuable than either.
There are always some lunatics about. It would be a dull world without them.
The chief proof of man's real greatness lies in his perception of his own smallness.
To a great mind, nothing is little.
I don't speak for others and they don't speak for me.
Watson. Come at once if convenient. If inconvenient, come all the same.

The six richest people in Britain decide to hold a contest to settle the question of which of them is most successful. It will be a gladiator style contest with each entrant fielding a team of ten super-powered combatants. Entrepreneur Llew Powell sets out to put together his team, which includes his former lover, an employee of his company with a fascinating hobby, two refugees from another dimension (a lonely giant and a drunken sailor), two sisters bound together by a promise, a diminutive doctor, a former Tibetan monk initiate and two androids with a history. As the team train together, alliances form, friendships and more develop, while others find the past is not easy to leave behind.
Meanwhile, a ruthless race of aliens has its eyes on the Earth. Already abducting and enslaving humans, they work towards the final invasion which would destroy life on Earth as we know it. Powell’s group, Combat Team Alpha, stumble upon one of the wormholes the aliens use to travel to Earth and witness for themselves the horrors in store if the aliens aren’t stopped. Barely escaping with their lives, they realise there are more important things to worry about than a fighting competition.
