Arc...As far as I know, I have not read that story.<br /><br />Archie is a wonderful narrator. I don't think the Nero Wolfe books would be half as interesting without him.<br /><br />They are well worth reading. And if you can get the two seasons of the most recent Nero Wolfe series, they did an excellent job with Archie and Wolfe.<br /><br />Oh, and yes, if Fritz is ill, it's a major disaster, lol!

It does have wit, but it's not 'frothy.' And the mysteries really are both interesting and challenging. I hope you'll keep dipping into those novels and enjoy the swim...

I have read "Fer-de-Lance," the first novel.<br />I enjoy this series whenever I need light, humorous reading. And I often laugh out loud while I'm reading the Wolfe/Goodwin dialogues. It is like taking a mini-vacation to read one of these books, distracting, entertaining, witty.<br />I read some of the books while a teenager, as my father read them, but came back to them after reading Yvette Banak's blog, as she is an ardent fan of the books.<br />I could see why.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
