Review:
?Perhaps this, more than anything else, is what I admire about these novels: the consistent ruthlessness of an unapologetic bastard. And so if you?re a fan of noir novels and haven?t yet read Richard Stark, you may want to give these books a try. Who knows? Parker may just be the son of a bitch you?ve been searching for. John McNally, Virginia Quarterly Review -- John McNally "Virginia Quarterly Review"

?The UC Press mission, to reprint the 1960s Parker novels of Richard Stark (the late Donald Westlake), is wholly admirable. The books have been out of print for decades, and the fast-paced, hard-boiled thrillers featuring the thief Parker are brilliant. H. J. Kirchoff, Globe and Mail (Canada) -- H. J. Kirchoff "Globe and Mail" (04/17/2009)

Parker is refreshingly amoral, a thief who always gets away with the swag.
--Stephen King "Entertainment Weekly ""

Parker . . . lumbers through the pages of Richard Stark s noir novels scattering dead bodies like peanut shells. . . . In a complex world [he] makes things simple.
--William Grimes "New York Times ""
About the Author:
