Critic reviews

<p>“Walter Mosley is a new, strong, and original voice, here to stay and not to be missed.” —<i>The Los Angeles Times</i><br><br>“[The Easy Rawlins mysteries are] at once exotic, and believable . . . memorable . . . and morally complex.” —<i>The Wall Street Journal</i><br><br>“Mosley . . . a writer whose work transcends the thriller category and qualifies as serious literature.” —<i>Time</i><br><br>“Mosley's skill in rendering the time and place of his novels brings to mind the inevitable comparison to genre masters such as Hammett and Chandler . . .” —<i>San Francisco Chronicle</i></p>

What do you love most in your mystery listens? Is it dark, moody settings and gritty storylines? Is it morally ambiguous main characters with complex inner lives? If so, noir is your kind of fiction. As a literary genre, noir can be difficult to nail down because so much of it is based on a general feeling of darkness and danger. Noir fiction was inspired by film noir, and film noir traces its roots to hard-boiled detective novels. Check out the world of noir fiction audiobooks.

This is a great collection of EZ short stories by Walter Mosley. They come between A Little Yellow Dog and Little Scarlet, and fill in a lot of the gaps between those two novels. Really enjoyable. ME Willis is a delight. Characters like Mama Joe, bring added depth. Gone Fishing was written before these stories, and there's references to what happened.

If you want a novel, then you won't be satisfied with short stories, but I really enjoyed seeing how Mosley works with the short story form and also the way the stories link together.

6 stories about Easy and his adventures. No spoilers in this review. In my opinion one of the beat of the series when it comes to character development. I hope you enjoy it as much as I did. Have a nice day.
