Critics Review
Traditional crime writing at its best; the kind of book without which no armchair is complete * The Sunday Times * No one constructs a whodunit with more fiendish skill than Colin Dexter * The Guardian * Dexter has created a giant among fictional detectives * The Times * A character who will undoubtedly retain his place as one of the most popular and enduring of fictional detectives – P. D. James, The Sunday Telegraph The writing is highly intelligent, the atmosphere melancholy, the effect haunting * The Daily Telegraph * The triumph is the character of Morse * Times Literary Supplement * Colin Dexter’s superior crime-craft is enough to make lesser practitioners sick with envy * The Oxford Times * [Morse is] the most prickly, conceited and genuinely brilliant detective since Hercule Poirot * The New York Times Book Review *
