The Casebook of Newbury & Hobbes (Book Review)

Titan Books will release The Casebook of Newbury & Hobbes on September 27th in the UK with American fans being able to pick up the book on September 24th from most major book retailers. The Casebook of Newbury & Hobbes is a brand new collection written by George Mann that takes readers on new adventures with our detective duo Newbury and Hobbes. Our team, alongside Chief Inspector Bainbridge, will take on a slew of dangerous new adversaries and even have a personal encounter with the one and only Sherlock Holmes.


The Casebook of Newbury & Hobbes combines several genres including mystery, supernatural and steam punk into one amazing read. The collection of short stories are all intriguing and fun in their own way and The Casebook of Newbury & Hobbes manages to give a fresh, new perspective on several stories you may have read before. However, every story seemed even better the second time around. The anthology of writings flows rather nicely and keeps the reader yearning for more all the way to the very last page. The Casebook of Newbury & Hobbes can be enjoyed by new and old fans alike because the stories are laid out for someone new to the series but occasionally gives subtle flashbacks to old cases for the long time reader.

The Casebook of Newbury & Hobbes is over 400 pages of delightful stories that will immerse you into their wondrous world of adventure and excitement. Mann has created an alternate reality for his stories that are filled with intricate details and well rounded characters. The book delivers a treasure trove of mystery and throwbacks to classic culture with beautiful Easter eggs throughout the entire book for you to discover. Mann entices the reader to explore their imagination and The Casebook of Newbury & Hobbes takes the series one step further. The best part of the collection is discovering the stories for yourself, so we won't go into too many details regarding each one. However, you will not be disappointed.

The Casebook of Newbury & Hobbes is now available from pre-order from Titan Books or on Amazon for $7.49. To learn more, visit the official Titan Books website.
