Reviews for The Burglar in Short Order
25 ratings4 reviews
- Rating: 5 out of 5 stars5/5Bernie in good form over time. Some insights into Mr. Block
- Rating: 5 out of 5 stars5/5A real gift for Bernie fans! Don't miss it if you like the Burglar books. Or if you want to know what happened with the movie...
- Rating: 1 out of 5 stars1/5I had eagerly awaited what I thought was to be the next installment of the Rhodenbarr series only to discover that it's merely a collection of very short stories with Bernie as a vague theme and some essays discussing his genesis. Very disappointed.
- Rating: 5 out of 5 stars5/5I have read and reread all of the Bernie Rhodenbarr books multiple times in print, cassette, and audiobook, so don't think that this is unbiased! There are short stories, snippets from the books, plus background on Bernie and how some of the stories came to be. Loved it and can't wait to get a print copy!I requested and received a free ebook copy from Subterranean Press via NetGalley. Thank you!
