I just finished reading this, the first Ellroy book I've read. It was a good book, but not really to my tastes in terms of the relationships for the main character (why I'm not a Wambaugh fan). The lone wolf aspect is one of the things I like best about Hard Boiled fiction. I didn't notice the prose being unusual, I take it his "telepathic" style came later? Is any of his other writing more hard boiled?
