Big Mike rules in this one!,
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Royal Cat (Big Mike Mysteries) (Hardcover)
My favorite Big Mike and Penelope Warren mystery. As Penelope, Big Mike's mistress and honorary member of Empty Creek's police force, is crowned Elizabeth Regina after the death of the first Elizabeth, the detecting, loving and hilarity begins. Penelope is stumped on this case but after the second murder she begins to put the pieces in place; Marlowe who hates Shakespeare, secret notes taped to her door and then Big Mike's discovery of the poison! Got it? Well, if you don't, read it; it's a light joyeous romp and loaded with laughs, and oh yeh, with some mystery tucked in!

No progression from first book,

This review is from: Royal Cat (A "Big Mike" Mystery) (Mass Market Paperback)
The first book in this series, "Desert Cat", was more a study in the wacky cast of characters rather than a mystery. While I enjoyed it I was hoping that Allen was using it to acquaint us with his recurring characters and other books would be more about the mystery and advance the lives of his main cast.Alas and alack, this was not the case. We have a likeable group of eccentric residents of Empty Creek AZ and some good visiting characters, but very little story and almost no mystery. We don't find out anything new about the main characters and there is very little action. The main theme is equating women's breasts to produce and finding a sexual partner. It's not raunchy but it really isn't interesting either. While I like the characters, I'm not much for romance stores and that is basically what these first two books are. I will try one more of the series, but if it is just another foray into romance rather than murder I will probably give up on the series.

I call these cat mysteries, "Junk food for the Brain." They're not Shakespeare but they are an enjoyable way to pass the time on a subway. It's like eating a donut.
