This is another wonderful episode in this series. They are delightful reading. McCall Smith manages to maintain the integrity of the characters and advance their life stories. You experience Botswana and a time of simplicity that no longer exists in large cities.

Great for folks who appreciate subtle humor and at times wacky adventures. Setting; Botswana, Africa. Great character development. McCall Smith obviously has knowledge and understanding of the trial, travail, success and failure of individuals in struggling African nations. He aptly uses his background and grandly converts this into an fun and addictive read.

Wonderfully written tale in the continuing series. Mma Ramotse shows her consistent wisdom through her unselfish behavior toward those both close to her and those unkind to her. This series is excelent for both adults and older children. High principles remain a constant in the series. Kudos to Alexander McCall Smith for his use of excellent vocabulary as well.

Its hard to maintain perfection....however Alexander McCall Smith continues on with The Miracle at Speedy Motors. I love reading this series, its the equivalent of having a cup of tea. I loved this book and find myself rationing pages to make it last longer!

This is another good story in the series by Alexander McCall Smith. I enjoy reading about his respect for the landscape and traditions of this part of Africa. There is less "mystery" in this one than others which means it isn't as good as the first of the series, but still well worth reading.

As a devotee of the Number 1 Ladies Detective Agency, I felt this was one of the best in the series. The characters seem to become more real and endearing in each of the mysteries. Be sure to set aside time to read this in one sitting , as it is difficult to put down.

The No. 1 Ladies Detective Agency serie is one that need to be re-read at regular interval. It refreshes the mind and leaves one with a feeling of wonder. It was hard to put down the books as curiousity kept me reading to find out how Mma Ramotswe would solve her case.

Hopefully, 2010 will bring a new Mma Ramotswe book.

The delivery with this item along with "The Good Husband of Zebra Drive" and "Blue Shoes and Happiness" were all 2 weeks in coming. I find this difficult to understand, since they were supposed to be in stock and I paid for quick delivery. "In the Company of Cheerful Ladies" came within a week of ordering. All books were ordered through the store.
