A review by cnorbury
Ceremony by Robert B. Parker
3.0
My first Robert B. Parker read. I thoroughly enjoyed the book. Fast-paced, taut prose, authentic dialogue, good MC and supporting characters. The MC, Spenser, is just enough a wise ass to make him humorous, but still serious and not overplayed just to create the humor.
I read this in a day, which is good and bad. Character development is minimal at best, setting is often overlooked as are character descriptions and backstory, and the plot was straightforward with minimal twists or surprises.
A great book if you just want to devour an entertaining story while enjoying a day at the beach or curled up in front of a cozy fire.
