The Cat Who Dropped a Bombshell by Lilian Jackson Braun (2006, Hardcover)

I haven't cared much for the more recent three or four CAT WHO books... they seemed short on mystery and suspense and long on everyday life in Moose County. For this reason I would rate BOMBSHELL? "2" as a mystery, but overall I voted it a "3." Why? I would like to say first that I own every book in the CAT WHO series (I thought the initial title was the best one of all, but there are many others that I have liked very much over the years). And I will continue to buy them... because I do enjoy reading about the continuing characters and their lives.... it's like seeing old friends again. If your idea of a truly great book is one of the "Prey" novels or something by Mickey Spillane or Max Allan Collins (all good items of their kind), then you almost certainly won't like this title at all — but if you do want to try one of this series, I recommend that you start with the very first one (THE CAT WHO COULD READ BACKWARDS). Afterward, if you wish to continue, you can work your way through them in order. These books should definitely be read in chronological order because things change for the characters as time passes.

I gave it as a gift and the recipient loved it. "Qwill" and his two fiesty felines like to solve mysteries. Well, actually they can't help it as they bump into them all the time. Great reading, much fun for the animal lover, mystery lover or both!

I purchased it as a gift and the recipient loved it! It is a wonderful book about a man who loves and has his life scheduled around his two fantastic feline Siamese cats. He is always bumping into a mystery and they cleverly and cutely help him to solve them. Great and recommended reading!

I have read all the Lilian Jackson Braun Cat who books. They are light and fun a good quick read, THis one seemed a little short, maybe because I waited so long for it to be realeased. BUt still a good book a you can let your 13 year old read and not worry about it. Its even better if you have read some of the other cat who books so you can follow the time line

I have read all of the books written by Lilian Jackson Braun. You can't help but fall in love with her characters; James Qwilleran, Koko and Yum yum. Her books are fun, light reading and good always triumphs over bad. I highly recomend this book for fun.

I was impressed my the excellent shape the book was in. The seller was true to their word. The book arrived in a timely manner and was in excellent shipping condition. The price was one of the reasons I purchased this product and that it was a hardback book with its jacket.

Lillian Braun does not disappoint with yet another fun mystery for cat fans everywhere. Koko dive bombs a seemingly nice guy and as usual, it takes the humans 200 pages to catch up with him. You'll enjoy this with or without a mustache!

I'm an avid cat lover and have read and owned almost all of Lilian Jackson Braun's books. She is famous for writing the CAT WHO series. The Cat Who Dropped a Bombshell was one of the books missing for my collection. When I found the book available on Ebay at a good auction price, I entered my bid into the auction.
MS. Braun's books are full mystery and tell a story about Jim Qwilleran with his two Siamese cats, KoKo and Yum Yum. If you have a cat, you will be able to idenify its' attributes with those in the book. This adds to the enjoyment when reading the story. I think that any cat person or person who likes mystery stories should read at less one of the Cat Who series.

delivery was near the end of the window, but within acceptable range. Would by from again if I have the time to wait.

I have been reading this series for several months. I really enjoy Braums's books. Have not read this book yet. I have several books that will come before this one. Hope to read it in a month or so.
