Wicked City af Ace Atkins

I really enjoyed this book. Based on a true story but it read like a great mystery. I loved the setting and time frame.

Robert B. Parker's Cheap Shot (Spenser) af Ace Atkins

I am usually not a fan of continuing an author's character long after the author has died. You would think I would be as a big fan of comic books where this the norm. I just don't find that many books that can maintain the magic. Capture the voice. I don't know hoe Atkins has done it but reading these books is like reading Robert B. Parker. It is that seemless. With one exception. I think that Parker was slipping towards the end. Atkins has invigorated the series again. Reading these books is like meeting a friend you haven't seen in years. Atkins has a much better hold of the plot.

You are never going to read Spenser to figure out what the world is about. You read Spenser for the characters. They are all here. Hell, I even like Susan again. Great story. Fast read. Leaves you wanting more. A perfect recipe.… (mere)

Robert B. Parker's Wonderland (Spenser) af Ace Atkins

I am astounded at how good Ace Atkins writes Spenser. THis is quite simply my favorite Spenser novel in a long time, this includes Parker's last few. He has the dialogue down pat but he has added a deftness to plotting which Parker simply didn't have towards the end of his life with Spencer.

Robert B. Parker's Lullaby (Spenser) af Ace Atkins

I hate to say it but this was the best Spenser book in years. I was starting to lose interest towards the end of Parker's series. Very enjoyable, although I still think there was too much Susan. A tiny bit too much of the little girl also.
