Patrick B. (royale) reviewed Raymond Chandler Meets Tarantino on 3/12/2009

Helpful Score: 2

This book has everything you might want in a Raymond Chandler story that has been brought into the present. There is deceit,double-crosses, good bad-guys, bad good-guys, and women who are damaged goods. It also contains violence the likes Chandler never discussed. Not violence for violence sake, but well handled violence that might make you wince a bit. I think the two strongest points this book has are well fleshed-out characters and a great story. Things move along at a good pace and rhythm. I have read a few of Victor Gischler's books and short stories and I have never been disappointed. Gun Monkeys is no exception and probably my favorite of his books.
