A review by melodon
L.A. Noire: The Collected Stories by Megan Abbott, Joyce Carol Oates, Lawrence Block, Joe R. Lansdale, Andrew Vachss, Duane Swierczynski, Francine Prose, Jonathan Santlofer

5.0

I was very excited to read this book, and it did not disappoint. All of the stories were great noir tales that felt as if they could have happened in the game itself. It took advantage of the anthology set up nicely; if this had been a novel length story, I doubt I would have been as interested. Again, this anthology set up made it feel as if I were reading episodes right out of the game. I only wish there had been more stories. Of course, I can always read more noir anthologies if I need to.
