The year is 1924, the place, Sauville, a small European country neatly tucked beside the Alps...

Kazuya Kujo has been studying abroad at the prestigious Saint Marguerite Academy, where urban legends and horror stories are all the rage. Most Kazuya ignores—but the story of the "Queen Berry," a mysterious ghost ship, really gets to him. Of course, his brainy friend Victorique is much more intrigued by true stories, and she uses her unrivaled logic to solve mysteries even the town's famous detective can't. Ironically, it's Victorique's inquisitive nature that leads the duo to board a ship that matches the "Queen Berry"'s description to a tee, a ship that might just hold the key to solving a sinister mystery...

Kazuki Sakuraba's modern twist on Holmes and Watson—pairing Victorique, a brittle young girl with doll-like looks with her eager-to-please sidekick Kazuya—make this international bestseller a must-read murder mystery.

(Source: Tokyopop) Gosick was partially published in English by Tokyopop, with the first two novels published from April 8, 2008 to March 2, 2010. The first novel was subtitled The Novel while the second was subtitled The Crime That Has No Name.

    At first I was pissed about what seemed to be, an abrupt ending to the series. But with this chapter.. things have changed. There shouldn't be a need for an over the top dramatic, someone dies, -- type of ending. I am okay with a soft, kind hearted, open end to this series. The first 3 volumes were sweet and a very nice SOL. That's just what the series has always been about. I'll still look forward to Koto's next work but man... I am already getting nostalgic for this series before it even ended. Heart strings have been tugged.

    That was a painfully slow burn, but a delightfully satisfying ending. I find it absolutely hilarious that, when you break it down, the pov character is a secondary character's nameless wife. And she acts exactly like that. Seriously, imagine his summary: "The most powerful wizard in the kingdom, elected to join the hero's party to defeat the dark lord. He is cold and ruthless to both friend and foe, but secretly has a love waiting for him to come home." She's literally just a plot device.
