Nero Wolfe was a great fictional detective created by Rex Stout. He solved crimes from behind his desk, and rarely left his brownstone. He was a gourmet and an avid reader, whose eccentricities made him truly memorable. Wolfe appeared in 33 novels and 39 short stories, which have been adapted for both the small screen and the silver screen numerous times. If you've read the Nero Wolfe books, this should be an easy quiz. If you haven't, you've missed a real treat.

Try to identify these characters from English and American novels. Some of them are eccentric individuals, others represent universal qualities which we all seem to possess.
Possibly the greatest hero of the "Age of Sail" fiction. Hornblower fights his way through the Napoleonic Wars in eleven adventure-packed novels. Here's a quiz that should be easy if you've read the series and guess work if you haven't.
