A review by zzzrevel
Eight Million Ways to Die by Lawrence Block

3.0

I really enjoyed reading this novel. However,
I know this is pretty argumentative, but to
me it fails in being a real crime novel. Scudder's
an alcoholic and not a detective but he ends up
investigating a murder, and lo and behold,
the author gives a nice telling of a story of
a crime.
Except for the ending. Too compact, too little on
how the clues get put together, too offbeat in
who did it.
So I enjoyed reading it but I can't say overall it's
better than average satisfaction for me. Sorry.
