4.0étoiles sur 5 3rd in the cat who...series, Fév 22 2004
Par smartnurse123 (Slidell, LA United States) - Voir tous mes commentaires
Another cute murder mystery with Qwilleran, the middle-aged news writer for the Daily Fluxion and his Siamese cats Koko and Yum-Yum. The setting takes place in Junktown, a decaying town known for its unusual junk (antique) shops and seedy living. Captivated by the unusual way-of-life, Qwilleran decides to move into town and starts writing stories for the Christmas feature. He becomes friendly with many of the shop-owners especially "the Dragon" and "the 3 Weird Sisters". He soon discovers that Andy's death was not accidental. With the help of his two mischievous cats, Qwilleran solves the mystery in Junktown.

4.0étoiles sur 5 In Which Qwilleran, Koko, and Yum Yum. . ., Fév 9 2004

(TOP 500 REVIEWER)    (REAL NAME)   
. . .move to "Junktown" in order to do a series of articles on the subject of antiques -- yet another topic on which Qwill knows nothing!

This book is especially nice in that it introduces us to Mrs. Cobb, a character who will make an appearance in several other books -- as will her famous cooking!

As this is a murder mystery, there is, of course, the obligatory murders -- but the plot is tightly written and the characters are interesting. In the end, of course, Qwill, Koko, and Yum Yum save the day -- and help Junktown to a new burst of popularity and prosperity.

5.0étoiles sur 5 if you are a Cat Who fan if you are not then 3 or 4, Janv. 3 2004
Par Jeanne Tassotto (Trapped in the Midwest) - Voir tous mes commentaires
(REAL NAME)   
Jim Qwilleran, Qwill to his friends, has decided to ease his cash flow problem by winning the prize offered by The Daily Fluxion for the best story of the year. Qwill is a feature writer for the paper but his doubts that anything on his usual beat of interior design will achieve this goal so he pitches the idea of a heart touching story about Christmas in Junktown. His editor agrees and then Qwill finds out that the junk in Junktown is not narcotics but instead refers to the low end of the antique trade.

There is no option for Qwill but to try and make the best of the situation. He soon becomes immersed in the characters of Junktown even locating a new apartment there for himself and his two Siamese cats. Qwill keeps hearing of a tragic death that occured in the community a few weeks before, a death that seems odd to him but that everyone around him keeps insisting must have been accidental. As more tragic accidents and odd occurences that place Qwill becomes more convinced that Junktown is no as crime free as his neighbors would like to believe. As always Qwill, with the help of his cats, solve the mysteries.

This, the third entry into the Cat Who series, was orginally published in 1968 which becomes evident whenever prices are mentioned. Other than that the story holds up well and could be enjoyed even by some one who is not familiar with the series. For fans of the series please note that it is not set in the familiar Moose County of the later books but is instead located in a "large Mid-western city'. As is common for this series some old familiar characters make repeat appearances if only in passing.
