A review by drewsof
The Casebook of Newbury & Hobbes by George Mann

5.0

The success of the Newbury & Hobbes series (modest so far but continuing to grow upon each release, I'm happy to say) has freed Mann to really just indulge his imagination - and what an imagination it is. He's got two series running, spanning the first 35 or so years of the last century, and he's managed to connect them together into one whole 'verse. These stories show that he's as adept with individual moments as he is with big cases and I sincerely hope that the "Volume One" on the cover is the promise of many, many more to come. Even if the N&H series ends after the 6th book, I will always welcome another visit with Newbury, Hobbes, Bainbridge, Angelchrist, Black, Arkwell, and Rutherford in the same way I look forward to new tales of Holmes, Watson, Hudson, Moriarty, Lestrade, and Adler. May Mann's creations have as prosperous a life.

Full review at RB to come sometime next week... and hopefully an interview with George Mann himself shortly thereafter!
