Looking for Rachel Wallace Audiobook

" One of them intense Spenser shows how enlightened he is kind of books. I love Robert B. Parker. "

" Another great one from Parker. The story lagged the slightest bit in the middle but, all in all, a solid story and a good read (pardon the pun). "

" One of the early Spenser novels. Parker took on social issues earlier than most in his writing. "

" This is Good Spenser. Spenser acts as bodyguard for a feminist lesbian, who is subsequently kidnapped. Hence the 'Looking For...', so I'm not spoiling anything. It's a sweet story. "

" A good Spenser romp as usual. "

" this is one of the best in the series, lots of action and Spenser's wit is sharp as a tack. No Hawk here either and just enough of Susan, this was done well before Parker started churning out potboilers. "

" This book was a quick, fun read. "

" I really enjoyed this book. It was what I expect an older mystery/ private eye book should be. I love the character of Spenser. Smart, tough, wise guy, etc. "

" I read it in three days, went out immediately, and grabbed four more from the local book trader. Next up: The Godwulf Manuscript, which cost me $1.25. Sure it's an old tattered copy, but the words inside are the same, and I can hardly wait! "

" A fun ride, a little dated, but who cares with the wonderful, testosterone-laden Spenser coming to the rescue of a lesbian feminist who doesn't want to be rescued but needs him anyway. A detective novel with real ideas and lots of fun, and good food! "

" Very Good; Continuing character: Spenser; he signs up to serve as a bodyguard for a gay author; when she's kidnapped, he'll stop at nothing to find her. "

" I enjoy Spenser's irony and sarcasm and his blatant disregard for the way others perceive him. Parker continues imbuing his wise-cracking private investigator with more than enough savvy to back up his macho spiels. Not the tightest plot, and dated material but still an enjoyable read. "

" The best Robert B Parker I've read. The interplay of the radical feminist and the macho is wonderfully handled. "

" One of the most solid of the series. Particularly evocative for its blizzard setting "

" As always Parker is first rate in this; the sixth installment in the spenser series. "

" My favorite of the Spencer series. It was written more than 20 years ago, but his take on gender, and identity politics, and the affection shared between PI Spencer and lesbian activist Rachel Wallace is real, and powerful, and inspiring. "

" LIke the witty banter. Don't like the profanity, violence, or sexism inherent here. Rachel Wallace is a lesbian feminist who doesn't want a big strong PI protecting her, but needs him anyway. Hello again, 1970s. "

" Pure Spenserian genius, Parker is as near perfect as a writer can get. His dialogue is on a level without equal. "

" Great fun read. Always count on Parker for snappy dialogue. Spenser is cool. "

" This is a must read. Parker through Spenser tackles a lot of tough societal issues, all the while solving a mystery. This book not only entertains, it will make you think. "

" His early writing of the Spencer character is so good, even without Hawk. The story line and the dry humor are what makes his writing so good. "

" A good story in the continuing saga of Spencer and Hawk "

" Very quick read with a story that keeps moving. Despite the length, the characters were well developed and likable. Fun read. "

" This was a decent Spenser novel. The fact the Blizzard of '78 caused a scene to be written made me smile. "

" Again, early Spensers are great. "

" I am amazed by Parker's ability to make Spenser a character I want to return to over and over again. Boston feels like home! Absolutely one of the best he wrote. "

" A fun ride, a little dated, but who cares with the wonderful, testosterone-laden Spenser coming to the rescue of a lesbian feminist who doesn't want to be rescued but needs him anyway. A detective novel with real ideas and lots of fun, and good food! "

" One of Parker’s best. Good action, great dialogue. What’s not to love? "

" One of them intense Spenser shows how enlightened he is kind of books. I love Robert B. Parker. "

" Great fun read. Always count on Parker for snappy dialogue. Spenser is cool. "

" Another great episode in the Spenser library. The dialog between Spenser and Rachel Wallace (and Rachel and Susan and Rachel and Hawke) sparkles. "

" Spenser hired as a bodyguard for a gay feminist. Then Spenser's macho wit gets him fired. The woman is kidnapped. Then Spenser becomes chivalrous using his grit to rescue the damsel. Classic Spenser. Susan is featured but Hawk is omitted. "

" Typical Spenser. This was funny:"The dining room was very quiet except for the yellow walls." "

" this is one of the best in the series, lots of action and Spenser's wit is sharp as a tack. No Hawk here either and just enough of Susan, this was done well before Parker started churning out potboilers. "

" This Spenser novel had a rather odd theme, feminism and lesbians. It was an interesting mystery, and as usual, had humor and Spenser being a smartass. "

" Very Good; Continuing character: Spenser; he signs up to serve as a bodyguard for a gay author; when she's kidnapped, he'll stop at nothing to find her. "
