Addicted to the books!! I have finished 9 books and will find the rest. Elvis and Joe are very good partners, perfect. They complement each others characteristics/ personality. I wish Joe Pike got more books and bigger rule. Robert Crais is a bestselling author, with great humor!!
Still, nothing in the first seven Elvis Cole books (beginning with The Monkey's Raincoat, 1987) could have prepared readers for Crais' 1999 novel, L.A. Requiem. An ambitious, sprawling, multiple point-of-view tour de force, that book dropped most of the author's characteristic humor and, instead, headed straight for the jugular, straddling genre boundaries, merging the private detective novel, the police procedural and the thriller in a dark, engrossing and occasionally heartbreaking tale of murder, betrayal, corruption, child abuse and the painful secrets that lie buried in the human heart. You could practically hear the chains of various genres snapping all over the place.
But I've never spent five seconds trying to decide if Elvis is hard-boiled or soft-boiled. I don't think there needs to be a laundry list of rules as to what detective fiction should be. You know, I'm a writer, I'm a storyteller, I'm using characters to explore things that I want to explore. I just hope that the books are entertaining.
