Críticas:

This is a beautifully rounded story and a real triumph of disturbing, bleak, bloody, compelling crime writing * New Zealand Herald on Sunday * The violence is hard and frequent ... Fortunately the bleakness is undercut by Cleave's dry sense of humour ... Blood Men is likely to stay in the mind long after it is finished * Canberra Times * Compelling, dark, and perfectly paced, New Zealand writer Cleave's psychological thriller explores the evil lurking in us all, working relentless magic until the very last page. There's nary a misstep in this riveting thriller about the bad deeds even good men sometimes do * Booklist * Most people come back from New Zealand talking about the breathtaking scenery and the amazing experiences. I came back raving about Paul Cleave. These are stories that you won't forget in a while: relentlessly gripping, deliciously twisted, and shot through with a vein of humour that's as dark as hell. Cleave creates fictional monsters as chilling and as charming as any I've ever come across. Anyone who likes their crime fiction on the black and bloody side should move Paul Cleave straight to the top of their must-read list -- Mark Billingham Riveting and all too realistic. Cleave is a writer to watch -- Tess Gerritsen Dark, bloody, and gripping, Blood Men is classic noir fiction. In Paul Cleave, Jim Thompson has another worthy heir to his throne -- John Connolly

Reseña del editor:

WINNER OF NEW ZEALAND'S PRESTIGIOUS NGAIO MARSH AWARD FOR BEST CRIME NOVEL OF 2011 'Riveting and all too realistic. Cleave is a writer to watch' Tess Gerritsen 'Cleave uses words like lethal weapons' New York Times Book Review Edward Hunter has it all - a beautiful wife and daughter, a great job, a bright future... and a very dark past. Twenty years ago, a serial killer was caught, convicted, and locked away in the country's most hellish of penitentiaries. That man was Edward's father. Edward has struggled his entire life to put the nightmares of his childhood behind him. But a week before Christmas, violence once again makes an unwelcome appearance into his world. Suddenly he's going to need the help of his father, a man he hasn't seen since he was a boy. Is Edward destined to be just like him, to become a man of blood? A true master of the genre that only comes along once in a generation, Cleave unveils a brutally vivid picture of a killer's mind and of a city of fallen angels captured at the ends of the earth.
