MysteryPeople has a double-barreled review of EIGHT MILLION WAYS TO DIE and IN THE MIDST OF DEATH:
In The Midst Of Death and Eight Million Ways to Die are both great examples of the jagged character arc Matthew Scudder travels in this series. Block realizes that even when you take that big step in deciding to fight your demons, the demons will often fight back. I believe these books argue that in this corrupt world it’s the fragile, broken, and discarded souls that need saving the most.
Love that title 8,000,000 ways to die. Loud women talking at doctor now. Hurt my right ring finger. It’s been oj around here St. Paul if I don’t do anything except one place. Hahaha! Now quiet. Miss Scudder so much. But he’ll always be in my heart. Maybe always number 1 in my heart. And he had some money but not a lit but so much ability. At everything.loud talking again.
It was Kim that hired Matt, and was killed….not Sunny.
Good review though.
True dat, Deb. I hadn’t even noticed.
