Just awful! For me the series ends at [b:The Cat Who Talked Turkey|623316|The Cat Who Talked Turkey (Cat Who... #26)|Lilian Jackson Braun|https://d.gr-assets.com/books/1388941969s/623316.jpg|2457493]. All the books after that are just horrible.

This is possibly the worst book in the entire series.
Too many misuses of punctuation! I don't know why... And many sentence fragments.
With strange wording and unusual paragraph breaks.
Whoever was paid to write this book (everyone knows it's not Lilian Jackson Braun) made too many changes and wrote it very badly to boot. I highlighted the consistently annoying bits above but there are many more for you to find if you are extremely bored & brave.
I don't recommend this book to anyone for any reason. *If you are or were a fan of the Cat Who series, please do not read this book.* It will ruin your happy memories.

Its obvious that Lilian Jackson Braun was going downhill when this book was written. It was scattered, confusing, left plot holes open everywhere and had a variety of unlikely events happen in the town of Pickax. I'm honestly not even sure what the murder mystery was.
I'm disappointed that the publisher allowed this to be published. If you're a fan of this series, stop reading at book #28. You'll be heavily disappointed otherwise.

This is a pretty boring book, and I really don’t know what the plot was. It’s supposedly a mystery. It’s quaint, and it’s basically about a journalist and his two Siamese cats who live in Alaska, I think.

It pains me to say that as this series has aged, it has not aged well. This one didn't even really solve the mysteries! The characters are still witty and there is the normal twists and turns, but it was ... I don't know if this the right phrase- but it was less sophisticated. I still plan to finish the series, but am looking forward to earlier ones. (I'm reading out of order.)

It started off promising but it became downright choppy and rushed towards the end. I was very disappointed.
