What readers say
Max Parrott is best known for clean, humorous animal cozies, especially the Pet Psychic mysteries about a psychic sleuth and her talking golden retriever. Readers enjoy the witty banter between human and animal sidekicks, fair-play clues and red herrings, satisfying reveals and a gentle, family-friendly tone, and many say his series improve with each book. Common criticisms are editing that needs work, slow or flat early installments, plots that skip realistic police procedure, and a tone some find more silly than suspenseful.
Best for: Readers who want quick, clean, funny cozies starring clever talking animals.
