Reviews
Westlake knows precisely how to grab a reader, draw him or her into the story, and then slowly tighten his grip until escape is impossible., You just can't get good criminal help these days. That's what Stark's heist-meister Parker quickly discovers as he tries to make a score to repair his sagging finances. . . . Stark offers lots of bleak fun as well as intriguing physical details of the illegal variety and righteously sharp descriptions of people we pass every day on the street. . . . This stellar series just gets better and better., Stark's careful control over every element results in a fascinating novel, a look at the true price of crime, and an opportunity to enjoy another book by this master writer., Blazingly written. . . . From the necktie party beginning to the flap-flap of police helicopters on his trail at the end, it's another thrill ride worth staying up all night and calling in sick tomorrow morning for, you nine-to-five bandit, you., Although Parker keeps his cool to the bitter end, it will probably be some time before he can pick up a hymnal without cringing., Westlake/Stark is the cleanest of all noir novelists, a styleless stylist who gets to the point with stupendous economy, hustling you down the path of plot so briskly that you have to read his books a second time to appreciate the elegance and sober wit with which they are written., Fiercely distracting . . . . Westlake is an expert plotter; and while Parker is a blunt instrument of a human being depicted in rudimentary short grunts of sentences, his take on other characters reveals a writer of great humor and human understanding.
Synopsis
Nobody Runs Forever opens a three-part saga with a job at a poker game that sours into a necktie party. When Parker goes in on a messy scam-stealing an armored car-with someone he barely knows, as usual the amateurs get in the way of the job. From a nervous ex-con and his well-intentioned sister to a bank manager's two-timing wife and a beautiful, relentless cop, too many people have their hands too close to Parker's pie. Even when he sees the job turning bad, he can't let go of the score-and there just might be nowhere left to run..., Together at last. Under the pseudonym Richard Stark, Donald E. Westlake, one of the greats of crime fiction, wrote twenty-four fast-paced, hard-boiled novels featuring Parker, a shrewd career criminal with a talent for heists and a code all his own. With the publication of the last four Parker novels Westlake wrote- Breakout , Nobody Runs Forever , Ask the Parrot , and Dirty Money -the University of Chicago Press pulls the ultimate score: for the first time ever, the entire Parker series will be available from a single publisher. Nobody Runs Forever opens a three-part saga with a job at a poker game that sours into a necktie party. When Parker goes in on a messy scam-stealing an armored car-with someone he barely knows, as usual the amateurs get in the way of the job. Featuring new forewords by Chris Holm, Duane Swierczynski, and Laura Lippman-celebrated crime writers, all-these masterworks of noir are the capstone to an extraordinary literary run that will leave you craving more. Written over the course of fifty years, the Parker novels are pure artistry, adrenaline, and logic both brutal and brilliant. Join Parker on his jobs and read them all again or for the first time. But don't talk to the law., An action-packed crime novel starring Parker, the heister starring in the forthcoming Shane Black film Play Dirty ! Richard Stark's Parker novels are the hardest of hard-boiled, classic crime novels where the heists are huge, the body counts are high, and the bad guys usually win. The Parker novels have been a huge influence on countless writers and filmmakers, including Quentin Tarantino, Stephen King, George Pelecanos, Colson Whitehead, Lucy Sante, John Banville, and many more. Their stripped-down language and hard-as-nails amorality create an unforgettable world where the next score could be the big one, but your next mistake could also be your last. There's nothing else like them. Nobody Runs Forever opens with a job at a poker game that sours into a necktie party. When Parker goes in on a messy scam--stealing an armored car--with someone he barely knows, as usual the amateurs get in the way of the job. From a nervous ex-con and his well-intentioned sister to a bank manager's two-timing wife and a beautiful, relentless cop, too many people have their hands too close to Parker's pie. Even when he sees the job turning bad, he can't let go of the score--and there just might be nowhere left to run . . ., This is the second in our F17 batch of the final four Parker novels, and initiates the final story-line of the Parker series. The sequel, ASK THE PARROT,continues the saga culminating in DIRTY MONEY. The opening of this novel is particularly exciting: a poker game at which someone is wearing a wire, spotted by Parker, ends in a necktie party. With that job soured, Parker decides to go in on a messy scam--stealing an armored car--with someone he hardly knows. As usual, the amateurs let their emotions get in the way of the work, and the book ends on a cliffhanger. In his new foreword, Duane Swierczynski writes about how he discovered the Parker series, and how much he admires Westlake. Swierczynski writes for Marvel Comics, has written award-winning mysteries, including the Charlie Hardie series, and had two new novels last year.

- a***a (52)- Bewertung vom Käufer.Letzter MonatBestätigter KaufIt’s rare that I order a used book from an eBay seller and am disappointed in the condition. Unfortunately this book was listed as “very good,” and in my opinion, it is perhaps “good,” but more likely “acceptable.” There is significant wear around all sides, writing inside, and a paperclip inside distorting the pages. Since I am a reader and not a book collector, it’s okay, but I feel compelled to include this information for other potential patrons of this seller.
