Ellin's at his best in the short form but a few of his novels
are standouts, DREADFUL SUMMIT (his debut novel) namely among
them. EIGHTH CIRCLE isn't bad...in fact, I believe it won an
Edgar for that year.

You simply can't go wrong with Wilson. And LEGACIES is no
exception...but don't expect another TOMB...it isn't quite up
to the excellence of that work. But it's close - and it's
great to see Jack back in action!
