Zodiac P.I., Book 1

This is my 10yo daughter's favorite series. She reads it almost every night and takes them to school with her

The book was in good condition, as promised by the description, and was an excellent value for what I would consider to be a harder-to-find item. It also arrived to me much sooner than I expected from the holiday rush. Thank you all around!

The book came and was in mostly good condition, a couple of dings, but it had a random pink sticky note in it covering a panel and smelled STRONGLY of perfume incense. I had to leave it out for a few dsys before the smell faded.

Bought for my daughter, she loves it

I LOVE Zodiac P.I.! It's wonderfully written, with a awesome cast of characters and catchy plot! I've read all 4 of the books so many times that I accidently ripped the spine of the 4th volume...oopps. ~The Characters~ Lili (NOT Lily) Hoshizawa is a 13 yr. old astrologist on a search for her mother,Kaoruko Hoshizawa,who disappeared 2 years ago. In the meantime,she busts mysteries under the alias Spica P.I. and leaves the police, along with her own father, scratching thier heads as to who she is. She solves crimes with 2 things: the birthdate of the victim and the help of 12 zodiac spirits who give her clues and guidance from Lili's summoning of her Star Ring. Hiromi Oikawa,however,is another story. Good-looking,yes, Hiro is also a detective(much to Mr. Hoshizawa's annoyance) and deals with the mysteries in a logical manner. At times, he's a regular pain in the behind. Hiromi is also allergic to girls, including his own sister, Megumi(whose vainity is VERY annoying..I'd like to do nothing more than kick her and Michelle/Sailor Neptune over a cliff. They're so AIR-HEADED...) I find that very funny.......poor Hiromi!!

This is probably the first manga I've ever come across that I knew I would like. Usually I just _have_ to know what the plot is, what happens in later books, and stuff like that. But this one, I knew I would love it. The main character is Lili Hoshizawa, whose family has been practicing astrology for generations. Her dad's a cop(though not a very succesful one), and her mom is....well, missing. Lili is a private investigator who goes by the name of Spica, and no one knows who she is....yet. One day, she ends up landing on a boy she knew ten years ago, but whom she doesn't remember at first. I'd say the funniest thing about him is that he's allergic to girls. Lili uses a 'star ring' to call out the astral spirits of zodiac signs. They give her the horoscope for someone involved in a crime, and use a 'globe of truth' to give her a clue or two. I think it's really funny how her personality reacts with the personality of each sign. This story has it all. Comedy, mystery, and with the books being released as slowly as they are, the plot is really suspenseful! You may not agree, but I think this is a great manga.

I searched everywhere for this book, and when I found it, I practicly lunged at it, and it was beyond worth it. Step into the life of the young sleuth, Lili, as she uncovers mysteries by finding the birthdates of the victims and the suspects, so she can use her mothers ring to solve the cases. I love the series; I bought all of the books within a month. Enjoy!

This manga is great! It has comedy, mystery and action. And the art is beautiful. Its too bad that there is not much on it on the web... Cause it never got turned into a tv show, and so it is not known very well :( I recommend that you buy this and introduce this to your friends, make them read it even though they might judge the book by its cover! my buddies say that they didnt like to read this because of the cover T_T! its a good manga!

after losing this i hadto replace it and it's amazing, better than the state mine was in
