Sunday is for Series -- the Liebermann Papers






Today begins my run of The Liebermann Papers series; actually, I've already read the first book, A Death in Vienna (apa Mortal Mischief) so I'm starting with book two, Vienna Blood. This series begins at the end of the 19th century and progresses into the early 20th century, and features Dr. Max Liebermann, a devoted believer and expert in the new Freudian method.  Along with Liebermann, there is Detective Oskar Rheinhardt, who believes in new and more modern methodology for crime solving.  The combination of these two makes for interesting reading, and provide for a good historical mystery series.

  1. I haven't read these either! Are these similar to Sherlock Holmes types of stories? Sounds like something I might like to read.

  2. They're likened to Sherlock & Watson, but completely different. I know you like historical fiction, so you may want to start with the first one then see how it goes. It's Mortal Mischief.

Say what you will, but at least try to be nice about it.
