What They're Saying
Critics Review
“The finest series of detective novels ever written by an American.” –The New York Times Book Review
“Macdonald brought a new method of psychological construction to the hard-boiled novel … he was in line with many of the important mid-century movements of American literary fiction, and deserves to be seen as a worthy addition to them.” — The Times Literary Supplement
