Cold Service (Spenser Mysteries (Hardcover)) review:3 stars (As Spenser Novels Go, a solid B) - Decent Spenser novel, but far from the best. My greatest disappointment: all of the drama of recovering from near death that was in the book where Spenser got shot was mostly absent from this one. I also agree with other reviews who say (a) the series is slowly declining in quality, (b) the publishes definitely stretch short novels with large type and book design to make bigger books and (c) enough Susan already.3 stars (I can't take it anymore!) - The best thing that could happen to this series would be if Susan Silverman caught a stray round in a drive by shooting and died and Pearl the wonder dog is put down with rabies. Must we continually read about how breath takingly beautiful Susan is and put up with their childish sexual banter? OK, they think each other is good in the sack, we get it. Give it a rest Mr. Parker, please. Having said that, this book gets three stars because Susan doesn't figure in it prominently. Less Susan allows more Hawk, which is a good thing.4 stars (The Price of Friendship) - One would think that by now that the assorted thugs, punks, and lowlifes that inhabit the fair city of Boston would have figured out that if they mess with Hawk, they better kill him. Make a run at Hawk and let him live and he will look to even the score and settle the debt. That is precisely what happens in this recent release.
