I am not implying or inferring………I am flatly stating we are damn lucky to have you keeping our favorite characters alive. Rather than criticizing I’ll just go with thank you.

Thank you very much for your kind comments, Mr. Green. My next Nero Wolfe book, “Murder at the Ball Park,” will be out later this year.

Re your comment regarding “imply” and “infer.”: You are right on. I can’t believe I made that mistake, which others also have pointed out. It already has been fixed in later editions. Thanks both for that and for your kind comments.

Thank you so much for your kind comments, Mr. Kumlander. Later this year, I’ll have another Nero Wolfe book out, titled “Murder at the Ball Park.”

Mr. Goldsborough, I have started working my way through your updates and hadn’t known about this book. I really look forward to it, and from the reviews I have seen, permit me to say it looks to be … satisfactory!

Mr. Goldsborough,

Just finished “Archie Meets Nero Wolfe” and thoroughly enjoyed it. Like you, I’ve been reading the Nero Wolfe series since I was a teenager. One quibble, however: Mr. Wolfe would never, and I mean never, say “I do not mean to infer…..” when instead he meant, “I do not mean to imply….” Mr. Wolfe is a better wordsmith than that. Please see if that can be corrected in future editions. Keep up the Wolfe series. It takes me back to a former, simpler time. Thanks.

Archie meets Wolfe is great. I have read 2 of your other Nero Wolfe books and I enjoyed them but I could tell it was not Rex Stout. With This book it is perfect. I can not tell the difference. I am grateful too to you for keeping the Nero Wolfe stories alive. my next kindle download will be Snap Malik. Peace be with you.

I anxiously await “Murder at the Ballpark” and sincerely hope it will be a novel as opposed to a short story. Robert Goldsborough rocks!!!

Thank you for your kind comments, Mr. Anderson. Later this year, I will be publishing another Wolfe story, tentatively titled “Murder at the Ball Park” and partially set in New York’s Polo Grounds in the 1950s.

I did not write that obituary, my son, also named Robert, did. But as a former Chicago Tribune writer and editor, I can address your comment. The style at the Tribune–and at most major American newspapers–is to use Dr. for MDs but not for PhDs or other academic doctorates. Even if my son had referred to him as Dr. Toshio Narahashi, the paper’s copy desk almost surely would have changed it to Mr. This style practice, cool or not, has been in existence for as long as I can remember, and I joined the newspaper business more than a half century ago.
