I'm not sure quite what it is about Raymond Chandler that makes him so awesome. On the surface, this is pretty much standard hard-boiled or noire detective fiction. But, Chandler's protagonist, Philip Marlowe, has a strong personality that grows on one. Yeah, he's rather flippant and even coarse, bu...
This was fun to read, but I had to make many concessions. Apart from the issues I've already mentioned in the previous two books, the characters seem flat and two-dimensional. I know it's one of the characteristics of the genre, but I'm afraid it gets old very soon. Eventually you start wanting some...
Oh, man, this series.... What took me SO LONG to read this series? It's quite possibly one of the best series I've read this year. Keep it and you will have a fan for life!
I freaking LOVE this series!! I had so much fun this past week re-reading these books. I wanted to a refresher before I started reading book six and seven. I almost forgot how much I loved these books, just because it's been quite awhile since I originally read them. Sometimes re-reading favorites i...

This is just a shortie review. I listened to this while I was on vacation so I had to write down my review. Needless to say it was very short... This was awesome. So much action. I loved finding out Kate origins. So, amazing. Curran and Kate’s sexual tension is driving me crazy. I almost g...

Its owner, Mrs. Murdock, believes that her recently est...
***This is just a review solely on my experience with the audiobook as I love and highly recommend the book. The book itself is actually 5 stars worthy.***** While I love the book, the audiobook was sometimes uncomfortable to listen to, because at times the narrator would give robotic sounding voi...
