What readers say
Nic Saint is best known for The Mysteries of Max, a prolific run of cozy mysteries narrated by a talking cat. Readers enjoy the humor, the cat voices and the quick, easy small-town reading, and some praise the audiobook narration. Critics find the mysteries easy to solve, the dialogue stilted, some human characters annoying, the romance clichéd, and the cats too human. Recent reviews of the opening book lean more critical than older ones, and readers should expect a silly tone and some content that is more adult than the family-friendly marketing suggests.
Best for: Readers who like lighthearted talking-animal cozies and do not need a tough puzzle.
