Great entertainment!
I read this a few years ago and found it not only an enjoyable mystery story, but fascinating in seeing how each chapter is written by a different writer, most were familiar to me, all excellent. You'll definitely see at times the style a certain writer here and there uses, and I remember laughing at how some writers really seemed to be showing off. I imagined them grinning while they typed, infusing their chapter with their characteristic style of creativity. I know I would love to see another novel written in this manner. Any reader of any style of mystery writer would enjoy this.
