My Thoughts: I’ve been looking forward to this book for months, ever since hearing about it in the author’s newsletter back around Thanksgiving. I love cats, I love mysteries, I love urban fantasy... what could go wrong?

Shawn is awesome. I love the way he talks to Comet (which is pretty much how I talk to my cats), and I love his sense of humor. When he meets the small, but very aggressive, Sarah Baio, he had a great reaction. “Shawn grinned, and tried not to say that she was adorable and he wanted to put her in his pocket. She would probably punch him in the throat.” What is awesome about that is that he realized her strength and could still see the woman behind at the same time without some idiotic need to try to “protect” her in some way. I also loved Shawn’s reaction to loads of strange cats showing up in his place, which was essentially, “I’m going to need more food.” He doesn’t even consider putting them out for a moment, and I just thought that was awesome!

Speaking of the mysteriously appearing cats, they are described as big, fluffy, dark brown, and having mismatched eyes. It sounds like maybe Maine Coon cats (since he called them coon cats), and I wanted to try to find a picture, but I cannot find a solid brown Maine Coon, let alone a brown one with mismatched eyes: those are usually found in white cats. The only solid brown cats of which I’m aware are Havana Browns.

The Sylvains are a real piece of work. I felt really badly for poor Haviland having to deal with that family of jerks. Some of the things they did... wow. Shawn Danger’s family was almost as bad. The characters in this book are a lot of fun, and the interactions are so funny.

Unlike Nina Post’s other books, this one isn’t quite as silly overall (not that this is a bad thing either way), but it is still very humorous. If you like Nina Post’s style, be sure to check out her other books, Last Condo Board of the Apocalypse , Last Donut Shop of the Apocalypse , and One Ghost Per Serving . Links on the titles will take you to my reviews on sites where formatting is allowed.

Recommended for people who love cats, for people who enjoy a good mystery, for people who love a funny story, and for people who love a terrific twist at the end of the book. Understanding of quantum physics is optional. Great fun!

Synopsis: On the verge of losing himself in his work, a homicide detective investigates the murder of a reclusive heiress, but when he discovers a window to another universe and dozens of cats begin appearing out of thin air, he must embrace the unknown to solve the case.

A review for the publisher: Curiosity Quills

When asked to describe what Danger in Cat World is about during an interview Nina Post replied:
Danger in Cat World is a procedural murder mystery about a homicide detective who feels isolated by his work and investigates the murder of a reclusive heiress. When he discovers a window to another universe and dozens of cats begin appearing out of thin air, he must embrace the unknown to solve the case.
Now this is a different take of course on the idea of Schrodinger’s Cat – I must assume - mixed up with the latest physics about we are living in only one of many multiple universes – each of which contains the same matter but has deviated in its pathway due to a different decision made at a crucial point.
It seemed to me that I’d better explore this theory more and so found a ‘for Dummies’ site:
The multiverse is a theory in which our universe is not the only one, but states that many universes exist parallel to each other. These distinct universes within the multiverse theory are called parallel universes.
Every single possibility exists somewhere and has happened somewhere – thus Hitler won WW2 in several and /or invaded Britain and so on.
If there are multiple universes then it stands to reason that at times our universe may interact with other or cross over or... thus if you are clever enough you can build a machine that can make these interactions take place. And a Coon cat can therefore multiply in our universe as all these other universes all have such a cat, and they can all cross over into ours – every hour if the rather clever machine is still operating....
A Coon cat is an American breed that is rarely seen here in the UK, so I needed a picture of one and to learn a little more about them – being a cat lover, of course.
Maine Coon cats are among the top 10 breeds in the US I read. It weights between 12 and 18 pounds and is very large looking at the photos, and shaggy, and a good mouser apparently. It is hardy too and thus very much an outdoor cat I would assume. You can buy them in the UK of course but I personally have never seen one.
So what did I think of the book? Well Nina has a rather zany imagination as evidenced by her book titles.

And this zaniness is reflected in her writing style which I thought refreshing and different and amusing. I thoroughly enjoyed this book in a very light-hearted way and loved the detective named Danger and his
I think I need more about Danger to read and I see he a new book will come in February next year. I am definitely going to check out her other books too as she seems an author worth following

[David Peterson · Rating 5 out of 5]

As a fan of Nina Post, I'll give anything she writes a try—including following her down the genre hole into procedural mystery (though I'm still not sure what exactly that means). And though the label "mystery" would've kept Danger in Cat World off my radar, I'm glad I picked it up, because it was a highly enjoyable read. At the heart of this book is Post's wit and penchant for the offbeat which makes one want to keep reading, and which never fails to keep me smiling.

Plotwise, Shawn Danger is a detective investigating the death of a wealthy heiress and her pet tortoise which has been in the family for generations (and which, at one point, Shawn envisions driving around in a little car, which is precisely how I like to envision my tortoises). All the while, Shawn deals with his own interpersonal frustrations, and the mysterious appearance of cats in his apartment (one new cat every hour—each one identical to the one that preceded it). The book is full of a kind of low-level funky energy that draws one in right along with the plot.

Though I won't give away the surprise twist, the real surprise for me was that in addition to the mystery element and Post's humor, Cat World is a work of science-fiction in the traditional sense. In the science fiction of Wells and Lugones, some new technology or scientific theory is introduced, and the rest of the work teases out what effect it has (or would have) on humanity, either at the individual or a societal level. Cat World does precisely that. In a sense, the murder mystery itself is a red herring, there to throw the reader off the scent as they try to figure out just what the heck is really going on—and the answer is far from simple.

Fans of traditional science fiction will find Danger in Cat World interesting, just as fans of offbeat dry humor will find it amusing. Fans of books in general should give this one a try, as I believe the read was quite worthwhile. If you've enjoyed any of Post's earlier works, I encourage you to keep following her progress and growth as a writer, whether or not whatever genre she happens to be working in lines up with your usual tastes. Her unique voice—the quirkiness that makes a Nina Post book truly Postian—remains—and, if anything, is growing stronger as time goes on. She's an author on the rise, and well worthy of our attention.

A wonderful, if slow starting tale of murder and that which can be seen but not explained. Dive into the world of Shawn, the detective whose only friend is a cat and whose family has taught him alone is better than unhappy. All of that changes as he is called to the case of a mysterious recluse who rescused strays (of the human variety) and mastered physics in ways one probably will never be able to actually master. When she and her beloved, boarding school educated tortoise are murdered life turns upside down for Shawn. Along with his cat Comet (who oddly travels not only to the station but to the crime scene as well) and a not so suspect person of interest the crime is solved but not until the earth literally shakes and an old TV set reveals important clues too amazing to almost be believed. Overall, I completely enjoyed this book and look forward to reading more from the author. The characters had the kind of sarcastic banter and black humour which I adore and don't see enough of in books.

I was given a copy of this book in exchange for an honest review.

A good and unusual mystery.

This is a combination of a mystery and a parallel universe. Detective Sha3n Danger must solve a murder, and put up with a cat appearing every hour in his house. The cats drive him crazy. I like the quirky plot, and I like the characters. If you want an unorthodox mystery, I recommend this.

This was an okay book for me not sure if it was the sci/fi mixed in type theme but for me it was just okay.

[Fel · Rating 5 out of 5]

Meet Detective Shawn Danger and his cat Comet. Shawn is a homicide detective--a relentless, detail oriented, homicide detective whose entire life revolves around his job, his trampoline, and his cat. After the murder of a reclusive heiress and her pet turtle, Shawn may face his toughest case ever--that is if he can survive the mysterious cats taking over his house, the earthquakes, and attacks on his home and car. What will happen if he can't solve the case? And, how on earth will he solve the case now that the cats have taken over his trampoline?

Detective Danger, if a trampoline can make me half as observant as this man, I'm putting one in my living room tomorrow. He's determined not to miss a single detail of the crime scene, taking notice of everything down to the type of wood used in furnishings. Surely those skills make for great detective work but they make for some very detailed scenes, but once we move past his initial inspection of the house, the story picks up pace. What I loved about Shawn, was his attitude toward everything. He's a workaholic, yet he takes even the strangest events in stride--a trait that allows him to keep his wit when all else around him falls into chaos.

If there was anything I could say the book needed more of, it was Comet. He makes me miss my cat, Hawkeye. Like Comet, she had a way of communicating and a lovable yet strange, personality (although, I must also admit that Hawkeye also had a vengeful streak and a propensity for attacking my sister, but I digress). Even though the book isn't a comedy, it's not entirely straight-laced either, but what else would you expect from Nina Post?

I have numerous excerpts highlighted on my Kindle, and I'm sure my husband got tired of me shoving the computer toward him to read random passages that I couldn't keep to myself. So, I had quite a difficult time choosing my favorite quote to share with you, but I've decided on this mini-pep talk:

"Pathetic, Shawn. Think of those guys in Homicide: Life on the Streets. Think of those guys on Law & Order. Did you see them on the floor under a trampoline, a giant cat cutting off most of their oxygen? No."

Nina Post, Danger in Cat World, Curiosity Quills Press.

Nina delivers a wonderful spin on the procedural murder mystery, keeping many of the same attributes I've loved about her other books; witty dialogue, quirky but loveable characters, and insane situations.

Check this one out, and add it to your bookshelf.

I received this as a review copy. I have to admit, until I saw it, I had never even heard of Nina Post – let alone read any of her books (of which there appear to be four!) – but i will be very happy to read others at some stage! Perhaps when my massive ‘To Read’ pile has dwindled somewhat!

The ‘Danger’ in cat world actually refers to Detective Shawn Danger – a homicide detective brought in to investigate the murder of a rich paper heiress who has been found with her head bludgeoned in.

In an attempt to solve the case, Shawn also has to investigate the apparent murder of the heiress’ 50+ year old tortoise (who had once attended boarding school), work out why she had been obsessive about the weights of her collection of anvils and get to the bottom of why she hired such a bunch of misfits to work in her mansion on such odd tasks as ‘investigating coincidences’.

Not only this, but Shawn’s is trying hard to avoid his own family (who wouldn’t want to avoid sisters that used to make him play ‘North Korean Dictator’?), has found a potential love interest and is having to placate his cat Comet who is a little put out when a number of ideantical cats seem to be appearing at Shawn’s house every hour.

I love a little bit of surreal, and this certainly does contain a bit of surreal.

Shawn is a fantastic character. he’s a bit of a loner, at loggerheads with his family, only has Comet for company and really throws himself into his work – which results in him being a very good detective. However, he is extremely likeable, and a bit cocky. The ‘dates’ he goes on are very amusing – I would have enjoyed those kinds of dates :)

“Can’t you get in trouble for taking me on a wretched, terrible date?” “The department doesn’t have rules in place for date quality. We’re free to go on whatever quality of date we like.”

When you take the slight oddities out of the book, and the ‘other world’ and ‘another Danger’ that Shawn often sees on an old TV (he can’t stand the other smug Danger), this is just a plain and simple detective story. But it is one with very strong characters, a likeable not-too-damaged hero and quite a few ‘grin’ moments, if not laugh out loud.

I really enjoyed it.

Detective Shawn Danger lives alone with his cat Comet.

At the start of the book he is called upon to investigate the murder of Haviland Sylvain, a reclusive heiress, and her tortoise. As he leaves his house to head to the crime scene he notices that a cat (not his own) has shown up in his house. He doesn’t really think too much about it at the time but as the story unfolds he determines that for each hour he investigates the murder a cat appears.

As he searches for the killer we meet the very mysterious group of strays that Haviland has hired to work for her. Strays of the human variety. Early on they become the main suspects in the case. Detective Danger also encounters Sarah who is the daughter of Havilland’s lawyer. The in-laws of the victim arrive but not because of her death but because of the tortoises death.

At times it felt like Sarah’s presence in the story was added in for additional humor and that she took away from the main plot. Aside from Detective Danger’s attraction to her it seemed to me that she was only really there to help with the cats and it felt sort of random and didn’t really fit into the plot.

I felt like the investigation was rushed but I believe that was due to the extensive detail the author went into at the beginning of the book. There were plenty of places in my mind that could have been removed or shortened to expand the investigation itself. There was too much time spent on Detective Dangers canvas of the home. I do understand that detectives have to be thorough but in the case of this book I felt like there could have been less time spent on the descriptions of the house, and also on everything he discovered, including the trash.

The hints of an alternate universe seemed odd to me and his theory after the case was solved as to why the cats appeared or why he was seeing himself on an old TV seemed random. It was a fast read but in my opinion not until after the initial canvas of the home was done. This isn’t the book for you if you have an aversion to cats. I can see how some fans who like science fiction books would like this book but it just didn’t ‘do it’ for me.

My review:
This fantastic book has a mix of mystery, murder, danger, little romance, and tons of cats. It is a fun, fast read. This is the first book of Nina Post’s I have read, but I will be looking for more in the future.

When Detective Shawn Danger is called to investigate the scene of a murder, he had no idea how weird his world was about to get. An heiress has been murdered...and so has her pet tortoise. Add to that his half-heart attempts at dating, the weird staff the heiress had, the heiress's horrible in-laws and the growing number of cats taking over his apartment, Shawn has a lot on his plate. But he still needs to solve the murder. Was it one of her family members? Or the missing staff member? And why kill a tortoise?

Danger in Cat World was a fun, different take on a detective novel. Sure, it shows the workings of a homicide, but with a bit of a twist. A cat twist. I thought this book was really good. It's fast pace, I didn't see the ending coming and it made me like cats just a bit more. Not much, mind you. I'm still a dog person, but Shawn's cat is pretty cool.

Post is a good writer. Her plots aren't predictable and the twist she throws in there was totally unexpected. In a good way. She also has an amazing vocabulary. I like to think that I have a good vocabulary, but when I'm going to the dictionary just positive that I've caught the author in a made up word only to be proven wrong, I'm impressed.

So give it a try. A little mystery, a little romance, a lot of danger and lot of cats!

Good fun!
Detective Shawn Danger is called in to investigate the murders of an heiress...and a tortoise. Shawn already has a cat, but suddenly his house is filling up with other cats, all identical, and there are more of them every hour. Can these mysterious cats be connected in any way with the investigation? Why did the heiress surround herself with a very strange collection of employees? What was behind the experiments she was carrying out in the basement? And why was the tortoise sent to boarding school???

A funny, quirky light-hearted murder mystery with a touch of fantasy, this was a very enjoyable easy read. Shawn and his love-interest are both amusing, attractive characters and the plot hits a nice balance between realism and fantasy. The cats were an added bonus, providing a lot of the humour, and the author gets cat behaviour just right. There was a bit too much unnecessary description for my taste and occasionally there was too much repetition of the facts of the case, but overall this was an entertaining romp, the kind of thing to cheer yourself up with on a grey day. Left me chuckling at the end – particularly at Shawn’s ‘scientific’ explanation for the weird things that had happened. Good fun!

An Off-Beat Quantum Mystery Procedural,

Since this is by Nina Post you can expect witty dialogue, a twisty plot, quirky characters and an assured and accomplished author displaying a remarkably playful intelligence. Your expectations will be met. As an added bonus, the lead character, Shawn Danger, is more interesting, is better developed, and is much more complex and engaging than is usually the case, and this adds an extra dimension to the strengths I normally associate with a Nina Post book. Danger's eventual sidekick/love interest, Sarah Baio, was also better developed than one might expect.

I read Post for the word play, the dialogue and the witty deadpan throwaway lines, observations, and descriptions. Plot is never a very high priority. If you require tightly plotted and rigorous mysteries or police procedurals you should probably be warned that this book wanders off the straight and narrow from time to time and is not above spoofing mystery conventions. On the other hand, if you like your mysteries a little off kilter this could be a great find.

Please note that I received a free advance ecopy of this book in exchange for a candid review. Apart from that I have no connection at all to either the author or the publisher of this book.

Detective Shawn Danger, a homicide detective, lives alone with his cat Comet and has a distant relationship with his family. He is assigned a new murder case of a paper heiress and her tortoise and nothing adds up when it comes to figuring out the suspects and collecting the evidence. The first strange thing that happens after he gets the call, and has assessed the scene for the first time, is cats start appearing in his apartment, followed by strange video footage of himself. The further into the investigation he goes, the more strange things start happening, as he pieces together his investigation. This would not be my typical read, for the most part of the book I was quite confused with all these strange events, and random point of view changes. I did not take to the story line immediately, but I did take to the main character and his sense of humor and interactions with Sarah, a suspect in the case who, Danger has taken a liking to as well. With that said, I still needed to keep on reading to figure out where the story was going. All in all, a reasonable read from a brilliant writer, who brings a witty sense of humor to the table. I loved the cover.

I had never read Nina Post before but I certainly will again.

Dectective Shawn Danger is called to investigate 2 murders....one is an heiress who was doing experiments in her basement and the other a tortoise who for some strange reason had been sent to a boarding school. To make matters even more interesting Shawn who already has a cat, (they have a great relationship he talks to Comet the way a cat lover like myself talks to their cat!) has a house that is suddenly filling up with other cats, all of them identical and there are more and more of them every hour. What do all of these things haven in common....you are going to have to read the book to find out, because I don't want to give it all way!!
This book really made me smile. It may be a murder-mystery but it is done in a fun way. (it takes real talent to keep murder light.) And the cats, oh my goodness, loved them! As a cat owner I could certainly agree with cat behavior in the book! I really love Shawn and the other characters in the book.
This book is entertaining and light hearted and if you love cats mixed in with your mystery and fantasy then you are going to really enjoy this book.

As a cat lover I couldn't pass up this book. It was a light mystery featuring countless cats and parallel universes with humor sprinkled throughout. Our detective, Shawn Danger, is realistically flawed with family problems, but is devoted to his job, leading to family problems. Unfortunately, the family bit wasn't a perfect fit, feeling forced, especially at the end. I did love, though, how adorably awkward he was with Sarah and pleased that this light romance fit well, added to the humor, and didn't take away from the mystery. My three complaints are that the parallel universes and the physics behind them were poorly explained, Shawn's poor cat spent way too much time in his carrier, and there were a lot of loose ends like the unexplained car damage (or did I miss something?). Overall, the cats were great, the mystery was intriguing, the characters were unique and interesting, and the premise was interesting, but poorly explained.

Liked it ... I think! Different ... very different. I never considered putting it down unfinished, but I was still confused at the end.

Police procedural crossed with fantasy/parallel worlds. The storyline and characters kept me reading but much of the fantasy element was only touched on, with no explanation and I found myself stopping, thinking "what???" and re-reading a paragraph or page and going on with a headshake. There seemed to be a lot of very random circumstances that didn't link the murder mystery or the fantasy elements.

Entertaining for the most part but there were some very confusing elements.

This book is not afraid of making fun of itself and it does so smoothly. It begins with a grown man bouncing on a trampoline in his livingroom. Detective Danger is assigned the case of the murdered rich and brilliant physicist. The detective gets some help from his cat Comet and from a parallel universe. This story is definantly different from anything that I have read before and I truly enjoyed it.

I really enjoyed reading Danger In Car World by Nina Post. The mystery of who killed the reclusive heiress and who is interfering with Detective Danger's life held my interest as I too tried to solve the mystery.

I do like cat mysteries. I like the duel world affect that the detective uses to solve the case.I could easily use this in a YA fiction class.
