“Loren D. Estleman's knife-edged serial-killer thriller, "Gas"" City" is pared to its very bone... Estleman, in the leanest prose possible, brings to life not just his characters but the vices that fuel them and, in the process, exposes the gritty, ragged, sordid underbelly of urban life. He's been called an heir to Chandler — and it's easy to see why.” A —"Entertainment Weekly
"“Shamus-winner Estleman, best known for his hard-boiled Amos Walker series ("American Detective," etc.), creates a new, morally complex world in this razor-sharp tale of crime and corruption in a fictional eastern U.S. city.... will justly be compared with that of James Ellroy's Los Angeles noir mysteries and John Gregory Dunne's "True Confessions." Admirers of unsparing crime fiction will hope that Estleman plans to visit Gas City again.” "—Publishers Weekly," starred review

"May be the prolific Estleman's most thought-provoking and emotionally engaging novel among the 60 or so he's written. Its subject is contemporary rust-belt politics as a human phenomenon and the way that a politician's compromises can affect both the citizenry at large and the individuals who make up that citizenry. Each of the half-dozen plotlines is executed flawlessly and presented in a context of moral ambiguity in which every choice--whether self-serving or altruistic--has consequences both good and evil. A magnificent crime novel."--"Booklist" (Starred Review)
"Portrait of a city by an old master... The chronically undervalued Estleman ( "American Detective," 2007, etc.) serves up what just might be the best novel about urban political corruption since Dashiell Hammett's The Glass Key."--"Kirkus" (Starred Review)
"It is as if Sinclair Lewis or Theodore Dreiser had written a contemporary crime novel while suddenly developing a sense of humor." --Otto Penzler, "New York"" Sun""

Estleman's spare dialogue; unhurried, self-assured storytelling style; and understated and profound use of symbolism make this a novel to savor. "Paul Goat Allen, The Chicago Tribune"
Forget honors for an individual book Estleman, in his prime at 56 years old, is as deserving as anyone of MWA's Grand Master Award, recognizing a formidable contribution to mystery fiction. And it better happen soon, before undervalued' becomes a permanent prefix to his name. "Eddie Muller, San Francisco Chronicle""
