Download Dirty Money Audiobook (Unabridged)

" If you are looking for action, there is plenty of it in this book. Reads like a screenplay for an action flic, which is probably what it was intended for. The writing is pretty flat and Stark is not big on scenery or setting. The characters are pretty flat too. I did keep turning the pages to the end, I will give him that. "

" The last Parker book ... 24 books and Parker's brutal efficiency still enthralls. "

" From the movie Payback (a one-shot), to Darwyn Cooke's graphic adaptations (three but spaced out by at least a year), to this novel: I really enjoy the Parker character as a sort of dark Spenser or precursor to Reacher! "

" I know he's considered a master of genre fiction, and I was definitely intrigued by the premise (the aftermath of a heist gone wrong), and the dialogue is occasionally Elmore Leonard-esque--but this book never wowed me. "

" Not the usual tight Richard Stark novel as of late. Too much dependency on references to characters from his last two novels. But hey, the author just turned 75. Some day Stark/Westlake will be dead and will mourn the loss of anticipating his next novel. "

" A fitting conclusion to the last Parker caper. "

" So sad to say goodbye to Parker. I'll never read these books for the first time ever again. Not the ending to the series that Butcher's Moon would have been, but not terrible either. "

" Another standard tough-guy book "

" It was good for what it was ... another in the Westlake genre ... although it was tolerable as a stand-alone, it was part of a series, which was disconcerting. He's died a few days ago. Prolific guy. Now that I admire ... "

" I will miss Parker, and I will miss his creator, Richard Stark (Donald Westlake). This latest (and last?) Parker book is business as usual, and it's enjoyable to read if you're a fan. "

" The end of the Parker books... nothing really new. RIP, Donald Westlake "

" Last book of the series, what are we going to do? "

" Appeared the author wrote a half of book. "

" Parker, is man with a plan. Get in his way and you get hurt, just like politics. "

" I listened to this one on CDs. I had a hard time relating to any on the characters and the plot was rather sluggish. "

" I know he's considered a master of genre fiction, and I was definitely intrigued by the premise (the aftermath of a heist gone wrong), and the dialogue is occasionally Elmore Leonard-esque--but this book never wowed me.

" The narrative drive in this book never lets down for a second, and the hooks at the end of chapters are brilliant.

Parker is as ruthlessly efficient as ever. When the partner he's thrown together with asks him not to kill anyone, all he says is, "we'll see."
Indeed. "

" Parker, as seen by Donald Westlake writing as Richard Stark "

" The end of the Parker books... nothing really new. RIP, Donald Westlake "

" One of the best crime writers... "
