Synopsis
"The most engaging and cleverest reincarnation of Sherlock Holmes and Doctor Watson yet." The Horn Book
Follow Inspector Mantis, of brilliant mind, supersensitive antennae, and iron grip, and his faithful sidekick Doctor Hopper, an accomplished violinist and long jumper, as they solve five entomological cases puzzling the populace of Victorian Bugland.
Joe Servello's color and pen-and-ink drawings bring exquisite detail to these tales: steam engines, deerstalkers, fog, and mandibles have never been more lovingly crosshatched

Reviews
Inspector Mantis (read Sherlock Holmes) and his capable companion Doctor Hopper star in this collection of mysteries, ranging from "The Case of the Missing Butterfly" to "The Case of the Caterpillar's Head." Yes, they're insects, solving crimes in Bugland, with a cast of characters that includes the circus owner, P. T. Barnworm, and Captain Flatfootfly.
