Tales of the Black Widowers by Isaac Asimov

3.0

This is my second time reading the Black Widowers stories, with a long hiatus in between readings. It is a series of clever puzzles, some of which I was able to 'figure out' before the reveal and others which I was not. There isn't much characterization here (other than in the broadest terms) - the puzzle really is the story and everything else is window dressing. I seldom read short stories, and these just don't feel 'good enough' to warrant a third visit.
