Mad Mouse

Man, this is just such a fun series. Ceepak's a great superhero cop (though I hope he becomes a bit more rounded in the books to come), and Danny's one of the best sidekicks around. Watching him grow up is a blast.

I thought it was great that this book didn't focus on a murder (my wife took a different stance), a serious crime, yes, but not a murder. The sense of urgency was still real, it was a serious crime, but a crime more likely that a small town would face–rather than a Jessica Fletcher-like situation where 3 centuries worth of murders happen to a tiny city in a matter of months.
