Parker’s Spenser novels“Crackling dialogue, plenty of action and expert writing . . . Unexpectedly literate—[Spenser is] in many respects the very exemplar of the species.”—*The New York Times“They just don’t make private eyes tougher or funnier.”—*People“Parker has a recorder’s ear for dialogue, an agile wit . . . and, strangely enough, a soupçon of compassion hidden under that sardonic, flip exterior.”—Los Angeles Times“A deft storyteller, a master of pace.”—*The Philadelphia Inquirer“Spenser probably had more to do with changing the private eye from a coffin-chaser to a full-bodied human being than any other detective hero.”—The Chicago Sun-Times“[Spenser is] tough, intelligent, wisecracking, principled, and brave.”—*The New Yorker
