Garrett P.I. is a series of books by the author
Glen Cook about
Garrett, a
freelance private investigator. The novels are written in a
film noir-esque style, containing elements of traditional
mystery and
detective fiction, as well as plenty of dialogue-based
humor. The Garrett P.I. novels are set in a
fantasy universe; the protagonist Garrett, during his adventures throughout his home city of TunFaire and across Karenta and the Cantard, meets elves, vampires, centaurs, trolls, gods, wizards, witches and more. Unlike most fantasy series, the Garrett P.I. novels focus more on the detective aspects of the story and less on the fantastic and magical aspects.
