I finished reading this novel the other day and, while it did
not remind
me (as it did Mark) of another book or movie, it did disappoint
me.
While the stylistic flamboyance is remarkable, I found that
the
substance did not match the style. Also, something seemed amiss
in the
pacing of the story, which was yanked forward periodically by
the sheer
bravado of the author. Still, I think it's an interesting read
and far
more ambitious than most fare that passes for hardboiled these
days.
