Über diesen Titel

Críticas:

"The smarter crooks give Raylan grudging respect; his fellow lawmen grant him their highest praise: 'You're doin' a job the way we like to see it done.' The same can be said of the 86-year-old Elmore Leonard."--Wall Street Journal

"In addition to kinetic storytelling and spot-on dialogue, Leonard has a cool wit. . . . Characters roll from scene to scene, urged on by self-interest and greed, bumping against one another and building up steam until they're smashing together in orgies of violence."--New York Times Book Review

"[Leonard's] finely honed sentences can sound as flinty/poetic as Hemingway or as hard-boiled as Raymond Chandler. His ear for the way people talk--or should--is peerless."--Detroit News

"A punchy mix of crime and Kentucky coal-mine sociology . . . It's one of Leonard's best thrillers in years."--Entertainment Weekly

"With a practised ease and the craft of more than half a century of novelistic composition, Leonard works like the Picasso of crime fiction . . . Raylan is as close as it gets to creating the complete illusion of unmediated entertainment on the page."--San Francisco Chronicle

"Raylan is Leonard's best of the 21st century--good stuff from first page to last."--Los Angeles Times Book Review

"There is no greater writer of crime fiction than Elmore Leonard, and no one who has more resplendent energy. . . . Like pretty well every Leonard novel, Raylan is a delight."--The Guardian (UK)

Reseña del editor:

“Elmore Leonard can write circles around almost anybody active in the crime novel today.”
—New York Times Book Review

With more than forty novels to his credit and still going strong, the legendary Elmore Leonard has well earned the title, “America’s greatest crime writer” (Newsweek). And U.S. Marshal Raylan Givens (Pronto,Riding the Rap, Fire in the Hole) is one of Leonard’s most popular creations, thanks in part to the phenomenal success of the hit TV series “Justified.” Leonard’sRaylan shines a spotlight once again on the dedicated, if somewhat trigger-happy lawman, this time in his familiar but not particularly cozy milieu of Harlan County, Kentucky, where the drug dealing Crowe brothers are branching out into the human body parts business. Suspenseful, darkly wry and riveting, and crackling with Leonard’s trademark electric dialogue,Raylan is prime Grand Master Leonard as you have always loved him and always will.
