The Julius Katz Collection by Dave Zeltserman is pretty much what it says - a collection of Julius Katz and Archie stories, including a never-before published novella,
Julius Katz and the Case of a Sliced Ham. Most or all of the stories have been published before in Ellery Queen Mystery Magazine. Some of the stories can also be found in other e-book collections.
It's a US Kindle Countdown deal at $0.99 for about 5 more days before going up to $4.99. Zeltserman's blog says this is the only time this year this collection will be on sale.
I've read a bunch of the Julius and Archie stories and books, have quite enjoyed them all, and wish there were more, so am glad to see that there is a never-before published novella in this one.
The stories in this collection are:
Julius Katz, winner of the Shamus and Derringer awards
Archie's Been Framed, winner of Ellery Queen's Readers Choice Award
One Angry Julius and Eleven Befuddled Jurors
Archie Solves the Case, winner of Ellery Queen's Readers Choice Award
Julius Katz and a Tangled Webb
Julius Accused
Julius Katz and the Case of a Sliced Ham

Quote:
The Julius Katz detective stories have been a favorite among mystery fans since first appearing on the pages of Ellery Queen Mystery Magazine in 2009, winning a Shamus, Derringer, and two Ellery Queen Readers Choice awards. JULIUS KATZ introduced readers to Boston's most brilliant, eccentric, and possibly laziest detective, as well as his sidekick, Archie, a tiny marvel of computer technology with the heart and soul of a hard-boiled PI.
If you haven't had a chance to meet Julius and Archie yet, now's your chance to get caught up in these clever, funny, and very unusual mystery stories as this collection contains the first six Julius Katz mysteries originally published in Ellery Queen Mystery Magazine, as well as an original novella, JULIUS KATZ AND THE CASE OF A SLICED HAM.
