Editorial Review: James Qwilleran and his famous felines, Koko and Yum Yum, are back for another mystery-solving stint in the beloved bestselling Cat Who . . . series. While the town of Pickax is swept up in its sesquicentennial celebrations, Koko has developed a strange new hobby: He drops himself from balconies, occasionally landing in the oddest of places. When a young man comes to visit his wealthy relatives, Koko plummets straight onto his head! Meanwhile, a hurricane is brewing, and the visitor's family members soon fall deathly ill. Qwill has his work cut out for him as Pickax-as foreshadowed by Koko-is about to be hit by a bombshell.

"The sad fact is that if Ms. Braun were still alive, she'd be over 100 years old now."
um, she was born in 1913? do the math???
I agree this book was not nearly anything compared to the rest of the series... it had several disappointments... however, as a collector, I am always thrilled to hear when a new TCH is coming out...

Rating: - The Cat Who Dropped a Bombshell; The Cat Who Went Bananas
The books arrived sooner than I expected them to arrive, and are in excellent condition. I am very pleased with the promptness and care shown by "Please-Buy-Mine" and will keep them in mind when the next occasion arises for buying books.

I did not enjoy this book - maybe you need to be a cat lover.
Rating: - Ms. Braun is still alive!
Ms. Braun (according to Wikipedia) is still alive. Her birthdate is listed as 1913. I agree her books seem to be getting worse rather than better. But I love the characters...all of them. They are like warm friends to some of us fans. So I read them and have them in my two middle school libraries for students and their parents. The kids like them and seem less critical of them than adults.
If you do not like the new Cat Who books, I would suggest you go on to another series..or re-read the beginning ... Read More
Rating: - Good book at a good price.
I purchased a book from the Cat Who series. The book arrived quickly and as described. The price was reasonable, less than I had found elsewhere.
