I was wondering if anyone has feedback on the Locked Room Mysteries set, both content and binding?

A pleasant set of books with good stories that can be read quite easily in a couple of hours each. I enjoyed them.

Thanks...do you think it’s library-worthy then? Or too much fluff?

Not fluff, just entertaining crime puzzles. If Agatha Christie or Josephine Tey are library worthy, then so are these.

I happen to consider it a real favorite, it's handsome, made up of books I really wanted a hardcover copy of, and please consider adding it to your library, maybe they'll do a second set.

Thanks to everyone for enabling this purchase. I’ve read through two of the volumes now and really enjoying both the content and the binding. Only complaint, and interesting fact, is that the paper for the Edgar Wallace volume is much coarser than that used for the other two volumes. I asked FS about this and was told that the paper was different because the Edgar Wallace has fewer pages and needed to look comparatively thick. Not a big deal though, happy to have this set.
