Description

Format: Mass Market Paperback ISBN: 0425132935 Publisher: Berkley Publishing Group Pub. Date: March 1992 Edition Desc: REPRINT Mr. Parker very consciously has modeled Spenser on Raymond Chandler's Philip Marlowe. . . . As with his precursor, Spenser's sagas are less tales of ratiocination than fables of exemplary conduct, the occasional violence or dubiety of the hero's actions is redeemed by the justice of his judgment, the righteousness of his character. Throughout the 18 novels, Mr. Parker has provided a continuing narrative on the refinement of a moral sensibility, Spenser's endeavors to act honestly and honorably.
