As always with these collections, the author lineup has changed slightly. For the authors who are returning, I look forward to catching up with their sleuths whether I’ve read books with these characters or not. I do have to remind myself these are short stories, so the stories aren’t quite as complex. They’re still fun, overall (one ended abruptly), and I’m glad I took the time to read them. These eight stories combine for the equivalent of a full novel, so you are getting your money’s worth. Pack this for your next vacation, but maybe read it when you are on the ground.

I remember. as a kid, watching 'The Muppet Babies' and even the likes of 'The Muppets Christmas Carol' or 'The Muppets Treasure Island', but I never actually saw the original tv show.
The Muppets Tonight (late 90s, I believe), yes.
The original show?
Slightly before my time.
Anyway, this - unlike Treasure Island or Christmas Carol - is an original plot, following Jason Segal character of Gary and his (muppet) brother Walter, as they travel - alongside Gary's long-term girlfriend Mary (Amy Adams) on their 10th anniversary - to L.A., home of the Muppets, and uncover a conspiracy to purchase and knockdown the old Muppet Theatre so a rich businessman can get to the oil underneath.
Only thing stopping it?
A new Muppet telethon, if Kermit can get the gang back together and raise the funds before midnight.
So a fairly formulaic plot, but that's really not why anyone would be watching this: more for the family-friendly good times, and the odd breaking of the 4th wall.
