Eight Million Ways to Die: A Matthew Scudder Novel Audiobook

" I loved this book. Matt Scudder always seems quite detached but he is starting to unravel because he had excepted that he is an alcoholic. The last photograph was very powerful. I could not recommend this more. "

" The first Block / Scudder book I read, and I've been hooked since. Superb. "

" I loved all Block's Scudder books. "

" A "Matthew Scudder" novel. This one has a few interesting characters but the mystery itself isn't difficult to solve and the ending is rather weak. "

" This may be my favorite novel. I'll re-read it and some point and confirm this. "

" I couldn't put it down until I got to the end, but the ending wasn't all that clever. However, it was actually the subplot that kept me turning pages. Skillful management of mystery itself and detective's personal journey. "

" Another Scudder mystery (see When the Sacred Gin Mill Closes). In this one, Scudder keeps remembering the old Naked City TV show epilogue: "There are eight million stories in the Naked City. this has been one of them." "

" This book is R-rated, and I'm not sure I should have enjoyed it as much as I did. But the writing impressed me, and I like Matt Scudder. I am not going to go around recommending it though. "

" Scudder looks for a killer of a prostitute he was helping. His alcoholic cravings are so real you feel his pain. Nice noir. "

" The solution to the whodunit is an afterthought. It's not so much the plot that draws me in as it is the experiences Matt Scudder has while investigating. That said, I come back to read more books in the series because of his experiences with alcoholism. "

" This novel, featuring Block's very dark character Matthew Scudder is filled with New York atmosphere and real bits of evidence that truth is trule stranger than fiction. Block can craft a good mystery novel without doubt but this tour of death in its weirdness is a masterpiece. "

" Apparently this author has several respected mystery series. This series has a burned-out ex-NYC cop as the sleuth. I almost stopped reading it early on, but my interest grew. In general gritty, see-the-underbelly-of-a-city mysteries aren't my type, but this was good. I may read more of this series. "

" Great descriptions of characters and locales in New York City as scenery in a well-told story. "

" Lawerence Block's Matt Scudder series is one of the greats in crime fiction. He belongs alongside the likes of Spenser, Travis McGee, and even Marlowe. This installment was intense and very moving. "

" I actually teared up when Scudder last his last line in the book. I have begun my Scudder journey "

" Slow, lackluster, monotone and completely devoid of conflict. Only read this so-called mystery if you're in need of a sleep aide. "

" Lawrence Block always provides a good read and this is one of them. "

" This was my first introduction to the Matt Scudder series. I fell in love with him and had to read everything Lawrence Block wrote about him. He is one of my favorite characters of all time. His struggles with alcoholism while trying to find a killer is extrodinary. "

" Best book in the series do far! "
