 Ellery Queen - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
All the clues are made available to the reader in the same way they are to the protagonist detective, and so the reading of the book becomes an intellectual challenge as well.
The novels also moved from mere puzzles to more introspective themes.

 National Review: Mystery Men.(authors behind pseudonym Ellery Qu... @ HighBeam Research
Queen quickly became a pioneer in the use of religious motifs, complex character relationships, black humor, and ambitious subject matter such as racism, eugenics, and original sin.
Queen's fiction makes it clear that this is exactly what we too are meant to learn.
Almost none of Queen's books is now in print, and the few that are, are very hard to find.

 Ellery Queen
The least interesting dying message tales in EQ are the pure ones, in which Ellery investigates the possible meanings of a message, and little else: such tales as "The Adventure of the March of Death" (1939) or "Mum Is the Word" (1966).
Some of Queen's logic is interesting, especially his reasons for concluding one character is speaking the truth.
The plot of the story also separates Ellery from working with the police as a whole, just as in the Wrightsville tales.

 St. James Encyclopedia of Pop Culture: Ellery Queen
They chose the name Ellery Queen for their author and, reasoning that mystery readers are better at remembering the names of characters than names of authors, they decided to give their detective the same name.
Ellery Queen continued to produce novels and short stories throughout the 1950s and 1960s&; with the last book, The Last Woman in His Life, appearing in 1970.
Stokes still wanted to publish the book, however, and The Roman Hat Mystery (1929) was the first Ellery Queen novel.

 Ellery Queen
The books are written in such a way that Ellery Queen fills the role of both author and main protagonist in a fictional work.
In fact, Ellery Queen is not even a pseudonym for a real person, as there is no author of the series.
Personally, I have only read three of his mysteries, and while I enjoyed them, they did not appeal to like Holmes or Wolfe.

David Wayne was GREAT as Inspector Richard Queen, who, even in the novels, was a crusty, taciturn man who doubted Ellery throughout much of the stories, even though he always asked Ellery to help because of his insight.

 Ellery Queen
There were also a bunch of books published in the 1950s under the byline Ellery Queen (most were ghost-written) but not starring Ellery himself.
The Tragedy of Errors, and Other Lost Stories of Ellery Queen (1999) -- a Crippen & Landru collection of uncollected stuff, including the outline of a full book that was never written.
Inspector Queen's Own Case (1956) -- a rather dull book involving the old man, without Ellery, having a geriatric love affair, which takes up too much time in this book, and has a mediocre mystery plot.

 Golden Age Mysteries - The best novel...by Ellery Queen?
I envy all of you who are coming to these novels for the first time.
Now I think it is symptomatic of the pretentiousness of these later novels -- that is, of their superficial appearance of gravitas -- that the moral ambiguity of Queen's behavior is never really explored beyond a few platitudes about his playing God.
I find most of the early novels to be a little too frivolous and the later books too pretentious, but these two strike a good balance.

Lorelei Farnsworth: But I don't understand why Roger killed him.
from New York, NY Ellery Queen, written and produced by the same people who brought us "Murder, She Wrote" nine years later, was ahead of its time with its 1940s atmosphere and mystery plots, older casting and older guest stars.

Ellery Queen was an author who solved mysteries in his spare time and then wrote about his harrowing adventures; his sidekick was his own father, Richard Queen.

Dannay plotted the books and Lee did most of the writing.
Even Queen himself is less distinctive than many of his rivals, with none of the quirks or traits that distinguish a Nero Wolfe or a Charlie Chan.

 Ellery Queen TV Show
Ellery Queen used his brains rather than brawn to solve the crimes.
The Ellery Queen TV show was a crime drama series about a mystery writer who helped his father who was a detective with the New York Police Department, to solve murders.
One unique aspect of the show was that immediately before Jim Hutton (Ellery Queen) revealed the identity of the murderer, he would face the camera and ask the audience if they had figured out who had commited the crime.

After the subsequent Queen TV series expired after a single season, Levinson and Link revived the notion of a murder-solving novelist and changed the gender of the protagonist--and the result was Murder She Wrote.
Ellery Queen was a pet project of the TV writing team of Richard Levinson and William Link (of Columbo) fame.
