Dear Detective Conan fans who struggled the way I struggled to find Ellery Queen books (thanks for nothing, Hattori), I have found an almost-complete collection.

37 novels. 37 NOVELS OF ELLERY FRIGGING QUEEN. I 1412 YOU NOT.

You can now see for yourselves if you’re camp-Holmes or camp-Queen.

http://www.ebook3000.com/Ellery-Queen-Complete-Novels_160514.html

ENJOY IT.

For those who want more, this collection is missing the following works:

  • The Adventures of Ellery Queen (1934)
  • The New Adventures of Ellery Queen – The Lamp of God (1940)
  • The Casebook of Ellery Queen (1945)
  • Calendar of Crime (1952)
  • Q.B.I. – Queen’s Bureau of Investigation (1955)
  • Queens Full (1966)
  • Q.E.D. – Queen’s Experiments in Deduction (it’s missing all of the short stories except for Abraham Lincoln’s Clue)(1968)
  • The Tragedy of Errors (1999)
  • The Adventure of the Murdered Moths (2005)

If you find any of them, please let me know. I AM EXTREMELY INTERESTED.

“Hey, thanks! Now everyone can see how awesome Ellery Queen is an’ how much better’n Sherlock Holmes he is!”

“Don’t be foolish, Hattori… As good a read as Ellery Queen is, nothing bests Mr. Holmes. Still, I’ll boost the signal as a personal favor. I enjoy keeping you deeply in my debt.”

EW ITS HAKUBA EWW EWW GO AWAY 

oh my gosh i forgot i used to hate hakuba im so sorry

sits here patiently and waits for hakuba’s reaction

*grabs popcorn*

It’s okay, Storm, he comes off as a prick at first anyways.

i initially thought of him as ‘arrogant sherlock expy’ after watching movie 10 for the first time but i dont think thats true any more

“That’s… that’s rather unfortunate, as I still have yet to make any appearances in the films. Kaitou-san is the one who… wore that god-awful polo shirt with the collar flipped up… It’s distressing, really, that anyone fell for his performance.”

“I feel I must reiterate that I do not flip my hair as he does when first introducing ‘himself’ to Hattori-san and Edogawa-kun. I may never forgive Kaitou-san for that.”

“It would be far better to use the Sunset Mansion case to form an impression of me. I hold my own with the other detectives – all adults and professionals in their field- by proactively taking part in the case, exercising precautions, and demonstrating my wide range of knowledge and experience for the work. 

"I act the gentleman and am kind and courteous to the ladies. I show deep respect for my female colleague (and in fact let her play the part of my murderer in our staged performance), and made sure to give Edogawa-kun a chance to speak and be heard despite his apparent age. It’s also the introduction of my hawk, Watson, which alludes to the fact that I am a skilled and patient hunter, good with animals. Eurasian Sparrowhawks are among the most difficult to train and normally only seen with the most advanced austringers.”

“…though, honestly, I have heard many times that I come off as cold, arrogant, aloof, demeaning, and rather prattish… at first. I do hope that you feel differently now, or will at least allow me the chance to prove that I can be a rather pleasant individual, provided that both parties are civil and willing to extend common courtesy.”

“Unfortunately, that does rule certain Osakans out from the start.”

“Generally, compliments don’t come with anythin’ negative. Pick one’r th’ other.”

“Stop fighting, you two.” Unfortunately, he was still a shrimp, so he couldn’t intervene if things got out of hand.

“We weren’t fighting! And it was supposed to be balanced; both the good and the bad. Did anyone actually read my soapbox? I’m beginning to feel like I write essays and articles for an empty audience. I don’t write these detailed reports for my health, you know!”

“Fine, fine; I will spare some time this evening to write a piece on Hattori’s merits. All glowing positives. Perhaps that sooth the savage beast  talented Osakan detective.”

meitanteiosaka replied to your post: Hey Hakuba-kun! Do you compare your detective skills to Kudo or Hattori?

*folds arms* “Yer reeeeally gratin’ on my nerves, Hakuba.”

“Did you even read the compliments that I offered to you, both in this post and in the aforementioned soapbox discussion? Honestly, Hattori, it’s almost as if you are looking for the negatives and are unwilling to accept the fact that while I am critical, I am also complimentary – when it’s deserved. I’m not going to apologize if you haven’t earned the reassurance that you seek."

“I think that it’s only natural to compare yourself to your colleagues, particularly in a field as competitive as detective work. Each of us have our strengths and weaknesses, as well as separate contact networks and resources. It’s been rather interesting to see how we stack up as we’ve moved through the same pool of clientele… 

"If you’d like my opinion on the comparison, well… I think that I am somewhere between Kudou-san and Hattori. It would be difficult to best Kudou-san; he’s exceptionally brilliant and perceptive. Very determined. He has the tenacity most lack, and a passion and focus that is unparalleled.

"Hattori on the other hand… while he is, admittedly, very good at what he does, he lacks a certain finesse… And I don’t mean style in this instance, but rather, he doesn’t seem to have forethought and care with what he does. Passion, yes. Procedure and attention to fine details, no. 

"I could launch into a soapbox discussion about the shortcomings of Hattori, but I think I’ll end the discussion here. After all, he is my colleague, and despite how it may appear to some, I do hold a lot of respect for him.”
