Fortunately, his assistant Natalie and her daughter are kind enough to welcome him into their home. Unfortunately, their home is not quite up to Monk's standards of cleanliness and order. But while Monk attempts to arrange his surroundings just so, something else needs to be put straight. The death of a dog at the local firehouse-on the same night as a fatal house fire-has led Monk into a puzzling mystery. And much to his horror, he's going to have to dig through a lot of dirt to find the answer. Review: Amazingly Entertaining and Nostagic - I loved this book for a whole plethora of reasons; it was well written and is from a man who actually worked on the show, it is a smart and funny novel with several twists through out the book, it is jam packed with what I refer to as "Monk-isms" e.g. "You'll thank me later" etc.., and for the most important and prominent reason of all... It captures almost every single essence of the Monk we all know and love! Now this book is not without fault, there are a few inconsistencies I noticed, for one Mr. Monk drank milk in this book (which he is deathly afraid of on the show.. Goldberg corrects this mistake in the 2nd book Mr. Monk Goes to Hawaii), secondly Mr. Monk is not as skiddish and compulsive as he is in the show (again another thing that gets more and more accurate in the following novels), and lastly, I found the Natalie character overall wonderfully similar to the one in the show except for the fact that in this book she KIND of... very slightly... rambles on a BIT too much about Figherfighter Joe (a man whom she is pining for in the book). HOWEVER, this honestly did not bother me at all, it may bother some people but you must understand the book is written in Natalies point of view, so it is understandable that we get some more of her internal dialogue than we would on the show.. Overall I give this book a 4.75 out of 5 (I gave 5 stars). It is an amazingly interesting and well written book, it is funny, smart, and full of Monk! I ordered the next 6 books in the series and am very anxious to continue the series, in closing, I highly reccomend this book and know that any fan of the Monk TV series will be extremely satisfied and glad to know that there are 14 more books to look forward to (one comes in Jan 2013.. I hope more are coming..) -Maxwell Review: Charming comical detective story - Monk was a great TV show and this book brought the show back to life. Super cute lighthearted read. I enjoyed it and at times it made me chuckle. It was great to read in the mind of Natalie, yet I also got a great sense of Monk's mind and how he solves mysteries. A good fast easy read. Nothing deep or moving... It was a good read for when you need something light and silly and scientific, if that makes sense. ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | Best Sellers Rank | #530,215 in Books ( See Top 100 in Books ) #948 in TV, Movie & Game Tie-In Fiction #3,579 in Science Fiction Crime & Mystery #6,580 in Police Procedurals (Books) | | Customer Reviews | 4.4 out of 5 stars 821 Reviews | ## Images ![Mr. Monk Goes to the Firehouse - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/811rJt6UYLL.jpg) ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Amazingly Entertaining and Nostagic *by M***N on September 9, 2012* I loved this book for a whole plethora of reasons; it was well written and is from a man who actually worked on the show, it is a smart and funny novel with several twists through out the book, it is jam packed with what I refer to as "Monk-isms" e.g. "You'll thank me later" etc.., and for the most important and prominent reason of all...

Super cute lighthearted read. I enjoyed it and at times it made me chuckle. It was great to read in the mind of Natalie, yet I also got a great sense of Monk's mind and how he solves mysteries. A good fast easy read. Nothing deep or moving... It was a good read for when you need something light and silly and scientific, if that makes sense. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Hilarious! *by I***R on March 29, 2010* Plot/Storyline: 5 Stars I watched the pilot episode of Monk when it came out, but life intervened and I never got to watch more of it. I did enjoy the episode I saw, though. This novelization of the series was laugh-out-loud funny. However, it was also a serious mystery. I loved the way Monk put the clues together so effortlessly. Mr. Goldberg has one of the most diabolical brains I can imagine to have come up with the mysteries and all of the obscure clues. In this first novel, Monk starts out by investigating the murder of a firehouse dog, but ends up solving multiple crimes, both related and unrelated along the way. This made for a fast moving novel that I did not want to put down. Having the story told from the point of view of Monk's assistant, Natalie, was inspired. From the outside of a mental illness looking in, things can be humorous. While Natalie is amused at times, she is also compassionate and symathetic to Monk's illness. My favorite scene was the one in the elevator. I was happy to be reading it alone so no one was around to look at me funny for laughing so hard. Character Development: 5 Stars Although the book was about Monk solving crimes, Natalie, his assistant, was really the main character. She has a great personality, so I even enjoyed reading about her `romantic escapade.' Adrian Monk is a very well fleshed-out character. He was interesting and grew in the book. Writing Style: 5 Stars I loved Mr. Goldberg's writing style in this novel. It was a fast-paced and smooth read. The descriptions were not only vivid, but quite often funny as hell. The dialogue was snappy. I could hear people saying the words. Editing/Formatting: Both were of professional quality. ## Frequently Bought Together - Mr. Monk Goes to the Firehouse: 1 - Mr. Monk Goes to Hawaii: 2 --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.tn/products/32687157-mr-monk-goes-to-the-firehouse](https://www.desertcart.tn/products/32687157-mr-monk-goes-to-the-firehouse) --- *Product available on Desertcart Tunisia* *Store origin: TN* *Last updated: 2026-07-07*
