"This mystery series is definitely different & doesn't allow for the reader to slough off or lose attention! Strictly no skipping or you will miss important details! I realize that I am catching up with the author. I hope he cracks on with writing some more volumes to this most intriguing series."

    " Just finished this 10 minutes ago... I have absolutely LOVED all of the Bryant & May mysteries but the very end of this one left me frustrated. Am I the only one??? I won't leave any spoilers because I'd love to hear others' opinions but... ooh... Maybe the next one will clear it up somewhat... "

    " Still love these books. Creative mysteries, great characters and great dialog. Very British humor..so if you don't like that type of humor, you may not like these. "

    " Another exciting and strange installment to the series. Most of it takes place in the Underground, and as a public transport user myself you sometimes forget the delicate balance you have with your fellow travelers. I'm hoping the PCU have many more adventures. "

    " This centers largely around the London underground which we did ride a few times when we were there. Certainly the names of the stations are familiar and one learns some about the history of the underground. I liked it. "

    " Funny, imaginative, surreal and 100% splendid. Every Bryant and May novel is a tiny piece of heaven. Christopher Fowler we salute you. "

    " Lots of interesting tidbits about the London Underground here, and the way it all comes together reminds of what Christie might have done had she been around for the rise of social media. "

    " Oh what an absorbing and entertaining book. Love the characters, love all the interesting bits about the tube. I'll probably never visit Kings Cross, or London, but this is real armchair travelling. "

  • Overall Performance: 2 out of 52 out of 52 out of 52 out of 52 out of 5

    " First one of these I've read and, while interesting, it treads the line between realism and snark. Bryant reminds me of many other UK 'tecs, lumbering, messy, and uneasy in the modern world. Amusing in the main but not enough to make me want to read on in the series. "

    " I really like these characters. This is a light fun read and the characters each have their own quirks, which I enjoy. I also like that you don't need to read this series in order! "

  • Overall Performance: 5 out of 55 out of 55 out of 55 out of 55 out of 5

    " Will this series stay going for ever? Even after so many outings, this series has yet to get old. If Fowler keeps up this standard, he'll end up up with more hits in one series that Fleming. "

    " I am not usually a formulaic whodunnit person, but I do like these. I never can guess the culprit - that's part of it, probably. This is only he second I've read, and I will read more. "
