Matt Scudder Solves Another One
Scudder Heads Towards Oblivion This is one of the darker books in the Matt Scudder series with Matt sinking into a growing depression and succumbing to the bottle with increasing regularity. Although sinking heavily into alcoholism in this book, he still manages to hold it all together enough to perform his job admirably well. Scudder is a very interesting character, but he is also defined by the actions that he can't explain, even to himself. A perfect example of this is his habit of tithing. He admits that he is in no way religious, yet every time he is paid, he tithes ten per cent of his earnings to the nearest church. The amusing part is that Scudder can't explain why he does it and reacts to it with head-shaking bemusement. This is a typical hardboiled mystery, sometimes despairingly so, featuring a character who grows more fascinating and enigmatic the more we find out about him.
The series is starting to take off
A short but engaging early Scudder novel
Pretty good, but not up to Block's normal high standard. It's a good book, butit doesn't measure up to the high standards set by other volumes in theseries.Part of this is because there's not enough focus on thecharacters.Seems strange to type that about Lawrence Block, who normallywrites great characters.This time around it feels like he wasn't surewhere he wanted to go with the series, so Matt is the same at the end ofthe book as he was at the beginning.He's simply there to go through themotions and solve the crime. However, even on Block's worst day, he'sbetter than most writers on their best day.So the book will stillentertain you and it's worth reading.Just don't expect to be blown awaythis time. ...

Editorial Review Product Description Small-time stoolie, Jake " The Spinner" Jablon, made a lot of new enemies when he switched careers, from informer to blackmailer. And the more "clients", he figured, the more money -- and more people eager to see him dead. So no one is surprised when the pigeon is found floating in the East River with his skull bashed in.And what's worse, no one cares -- except Matthew Scudder.The ex-cop-turned-private-eye is no conscientious avenging angel. But he's willing to risk his own life and limb to confront Spinner's most murderously aggressive marks. A job's a job after all -- and Scudder's been paid to find a killer -- by the victim...in advance. Customer Reviews (7)
Good Murder Mystery in the Scudder Series
Lawrence Block does it again
Pick A Murderer Naturally enough, Scudder accepts and then honours his agreement to find out who the murderer is. In order to flush out The Spinner's murderer, Matt decides to confront each of the people being blackmailed with the news that they're still not off the hook in the hope that one of them will blink. The obvious downside to this plan is that he would be making himself a target which, if you forget about the subsequent 13 Matt Scudder books for a moment, makes for some very tense and exciting reading. This is quite a fast-paced mystery that gives us multiple suspects to choose from with the wrong choice possibly proving fatal. Scudder is still an introspective soul who seems to view the world and his place in it with bemusement. Lawrence Block doesn't waste a word in his narrative which serves to move things along nicely. It's another compelling entry in a series that I think fans of hardboiled crime books would love.

Another Great Addition to the Matt Scudder Series
MOCUS means mixed-up, confused, and uncentered
Once Again................BLOWN AWAY
Scudder's first sober case The two cases are interesting.One is for pay; a family wants to know the whereabouts of their missing daughter.One is personal; an AA companion apparently commits suicide just before he is ready to confess his sins to Scudder.Both take Scuder in some unlikely directions and the payoff is typically messy.Meanwhile, author Lawrence Block introduces one his most interesting side characters to the series, the Irish gangster Mickey Ballou.Overall, this is a solid Scudder novel that is not quite on par with the best of the series.But any Scudder novel makes for excellent reading.
Another top-notch Scudder book. It's an open and shut case, but Mattis obsessed with finding out whether or not Eddie died sober.Dead isdead, but if he stayed sober he won the war.Of course, he finds out Eddiewas murdered and he also gets a lead on his original case just when he wasready to give up on it. This book introduces a recurring character in theseries:Mickey Ballou, known as the Butcher Boy.Mickey has a reputation. Folks believe he killed a man and carried the guy's head around in abowling bag for a week, showing it off so people would know not to crosshim. The characters all grow and change over the course of the book. This is a terrific novel and a nice addition to the Scudder series. ... Read more |
