Crime Stories: From the Files of Martin Mystere Hints
When should I go here?
1 of 3: Barney's Books (or "Barney bookshop," as the map says) has been here since Act 2, and you can go there whenever you want.
2 of 3: But there's no point in it till after you've been through the Estate and the Museum in Act 4.
3 of 3: Whenever you come here, there are some interesting books to be found on display, particularly in the comics section. None of them are necessary for the game, though. When you're done looking, talk to Barney (inside the booth) to see what he has to say.
