Eine Besonderheit stellt die Dokumentation der von COOP HIMMELB(L)AU entwickelten Rauminszenierung dar. Sie zeigt Kontinuität und Vielfalt des sich in einer Zeitspanne von 40 Jahren entwickelnden Formenvokabulars im umfangreichen Werk der Architekten. Die spannungsreiche Auswahl beinhaltet aktuelle städtebaulich Projekte wie die BMW Welt, München (2001–2007), das Musée des Confluences, Lyon (2001–2010), und die Europäische Zentralbank, Frankfurt am Main (2003–2011). Durch Fotografien, Renderings, Planmaterial und Zeichnungen erschließen sich dem Leser unrealisierte und bereits realisierte Projekte sowie Bauvorhaben, die noch in Planung sind. 

Texte von Jeffrey Kipnis, Sylvia Lavin und Peter Noever machen Schnittstellen von Architektur und Geschichte, Literatur, Film sowie bildender Kunst im Werk von COOP HIMMELB(L)AU ermöglichen einen tiefgreifenden Einblick in die konzeptionelle Arbeitsweise der Architekten, die zu den innovativsten und bedeutendsten unserer Zeit zählen. 

Die Publikation erschien anlässlich der gleichnamigen, eigens für das MAK Wien konzipierten Ausstellung (12.12.2007–12.5.2008), die als bis dato größte und umfangreichste museale Präsentation des weltweit agierenden Architektenteams mit Büros in Wien und Los Angeles zusammengestellt wurde.

I wanted a break from some tense mysteries. This provided me with an enjoyable break by reading a good story with an unexpected ending. I recommend it to anyone looking for a very good cozy read!

Very good, entertaining mystery.
Format: Mass Market Paperback
I don't know if this author has written other books before beginning this series but it is a very good FIRST in what is so far just a 3 book series. I ordered all 3 but am reading them in order as I always do. The author tends to go into too much detail about mundane things about things like fixing a meal, etc., but it isn't too distracting from the story. I like a little hominess but this is overdone just a tad. The story moved right along establishing characters without throwing in so many that you simply can't keep them all straight as some authors do. A thoroughly despicable victim so nobody cares if he dies violently. And, to me, a reeeely surprise ending. For someone who has read as many mysteries as I have, this was a pleasant surprise and the author doesn't give you hints till you are almost at the reveal so that you feel clever at figuring it out but you don't figure it out too early and you are still a bit surprised that you were "right" about who did it. Also, the "hero" is a thoroughly likeable guy. Don't you hate it when the "hero" or "heroine" just comes across as someone you don't really like much. You know, the one that if he or she gets beat up, you sort of feel like they deserved it and you've not really sorry. Well, if something bad had happened to "Charlie" I'd have been very upset. Now, if #2 will just show up I'll get on with the series. This is a series I'll be keeping in my library to reread in a couple of years.

OK book
Format: Kindle
I read this for our book club, got the book on Kindle, so the "back of the book" description was not there...It took me a while to get into the book. I'm used to female lead characters, and I had to adjust for the lead character to be Mr. Charlie. The manners shown by the characters are a bit dated, by about 40 years, but it's nice to be re-exposed to good manners. Loved Deisel the cat, but whenever he's mentioned (which is a lot) it tells he's a cat. That got to be old, fast. Otherwise, it was a good book, quick read. I was rather shocked to learn that Miranda James is just a pen name for a male writer.

A cat, a murdered author, and a librarian cum sleuth - what more do you need?
Format: Kindle
Murder Past Due has it all. A small town where everyone knows everyone, return of the prodigal son, murder, and a just-nosy-enough archivist with connections to them all. My favorite character is Diesel, the cat, though his primary role is as a comforting presence. I would have been happy with more of a supporting role for him—there were a few moments where I thought he would get one, but it didn’t quite take off. The mystery engaged me and kept me reading. I had it nearly figure out in the last fifty pages, but there were satisfying twists leaving me pleasantly surprised right up to the end. I was distracted by excess verbiage (Southern style?), and something ever so flat about the main character. He said he was surprised or upset or missed certain people, but I just didn’t feel it. Still, I think I will read book two, and that merits a solid four stars.

The cat didn't do it!
Format: Mass Market Paperback
I bought the book, because it looked so cute. Plus, I love cats! It was a cozy mystery with the cat as a constant companion of the protagonist. It made for a delightful story. I don't usually read low key mysteries, but I thoroughly enjoyed the humor, the cat, and the murder mystery. I plan on buying the next one. Ms. James has a writing style that you will enjoy her stories. You will not get bored.
