Reseñas de la Crítica

“Faster than a stray bullet. . . . Ellroy spares no sensibilities.” —Los Angeles Times

“You can get sliced just turning the pages.” —The Village Voice

“Brutal and at the same time believable.” —The New York Times

“Ellroy will soon be as well-known as Hammett and Chandler, and L.A. Confidential will be the book that puts him over the top.” —San Diego Union-Tribune

Two cents

I guess I was spoiled by watching the move of L. A. Confidential to appreciate the book. Movie and book were miles apart.

I had a great deal of trouble hearing he moderator through most of the audio book. You need to work on an audio program that helps hearing impaired folks like me enjoy the audio books more.

Abridged! what a rip-off

why would any one in their right mind buy an abridge book it's criminal for Audible to sell abridged versions of books
