User’s Reviews

Reviews from Amazon users which were colected at the time this book was published on the website:

⭐My grandfather introduced me this author in the 1960’s. Asimov wrote wonderful mysteries that he didn’t get enough credit for. The stories may be a little dated but if you approach it as a fantasy novel, you will be pleasantly surprised.

⭐They keep me laughing at their antics and antiquated style. But they never disappoint me with the details of their mysteries. I actually solved one of these though without Henry’s helpEnjoy

⭐Giftee loves this book.

⭐Asimov’s mysteries are great.

⭐Those of you buying the Kindle edition of this book should be aware that it cannot possibly be an authorized edition. it was clearly scanned from a printed book, and then converted to text, with no care taken to “fix up” any of the resulting problems. There are numerous scanning conversion errors throughout the book. There is no copyright notice and no table of contents. There isn’t even any kind of break between stories. The title of each story is just another paragraph that immediately follows the last paragraph of the preceding story. As far as I can tell, most, or maybe all, the stories that were in the original book are here, but it’s difficult to tell for sure. I’d be extremely surprised if the legal publisher of this book, or Asimov’s estate, ever sees a dime of the money from this edition.

⭐I have quite a few different subjects in book-form by Isaac Asimov. verrrrry interesting,and a quick read.

⭐just what I was looking for

⭐I really enjoy the Black Widower mysteries. Asimov is right there with the best mystery writers.

⭐This book disappointed me. I really enjoyed “More Tales” but the solutions here seemed quite far-fetched to me. In order to solve some of these, you would have to be extremely well informed about baseball, Gilbert and Sullivan, details of the Civil War, and so on. (Not to mention John Milton!) As Henry himself states elsewhere (!), I much prefer these kind of riddle stories if you actually have a chance to solve them.

⭐Another good collection of short stories from a master puzzler; a very enjoyable read.

⭐Delicious short stories, by the master of science-fiction. Relaxing, full of humor.

⭐Great
