What do you look forward to during the rainy season?

I have finally read through Arisu Arisugawa's country name series, which I started reading during "Golden week.

 

His country name series is undoubtedly an homage to Ellery Queen, but since each work is set in Japan, we feel very familiar with these works!

 

By the way, in this series by Arisugawa Arisu, many of the titles are short stories.

Therefore, I was able to taste not only the 10 title works, but also the omnibus works included in them. In particular, I was blown away by the excellent story development unique to short stories.

 

His work that I really liked is "The Mystery of the Malay Railways". This area, which is not far from Japan, is one of the places I would like to visit at least once in my lifetime. This is the only overseas location in this series, but for some reason I was able to read without any discomfort.

 

In the postscript of his 10th work, which is the same number of works as Ellery Queen, he writes, "I want to continue to create more of this country name series." I'm really looking forward to the next work♪

 

If anyone is interested in some of Arisugawa Arisu's country name series, please pick it up and enjoy it!

 

Well, what kind of work should I read next (^o^)
