From Library Journal
Chandler is not only the best writer of hardboiled PI stories, he's one of the 20th century's top scribes, period. His full canon of novels and short stories is reprinted in trade paper featuring uniform covers in Black Lizard's signature style. A handsome set for a reasonable price.

Even though I like the movie better... Chandler is THE MAN,
Von Ein Kunde
Rezension bezieht sich auf: The Lady in the Lake (Vintage Crime/Black Lizard) (Taschenbuch)
I have read all the Chandler novels since about 1970, a few of them multiple times, but it had been at least a decade since giving him a full reading."Lady in the Lake" is not as interesting to me as the movie version - which altered significant portions of the plot and which was shot entirely POV - but when the book is re-read, the brilliance of Chandler's prose stands out. His Marlowe is funny and morose and heroic (in context)... and approaches a difficult case in a way which seems very true to the man and the times. The man could write!!

Rezension bezieht sich auf: The Lady in the Lake (Vintage Crime/Black Lizard) (Taschenbuch)
The person 'A reader from California , September 1, 1998 who said I felt that this book was very interesting and clever', etc.is a very stupid and ignorant person. Thank you for ruining the book for me and others. Helfen Sie anderen Kunden bei der Suche nach den hilfreichsten Rezensionen

A Good Summer Reading book,
Von Ein Kunde
Rezension bezieht sich auf: The Lady in the Lake (Vintage Crime/Black Lizard) (Taschenbuch)
Raymond Chandler takes us through Marlowe to where good and evil become virtually hard to tell. Marlowe goes beyond his usual work to the summertime getaway places of his time. Filled with twists and turns as well as the gritty dialog that I didn't expect from Chandler. The Lady in the Lake is a good book that delivers the mystery and what not he is known for. This has been my favorite summer reading book yet.
