Title: Same old, same old Spencer
Review: I was once a Robert Parker fan but am no more. I'm tired of the same plot, the same characters who never develop, and the same self-satisfied dialog that I assume someone somewhere must find witty.By the way, am I the only one who wants to hurl when Spenser recounts his relationship with Susan? Here's a suggestion for Robert Parker. Give Spencer something to deal with. Perhaps the death of one of his major characters. (I know who I'd vote for.) Then maybe the Spencer series would take off again.Incidentally, if you are interested in reading some contemporary detective writers who are actually producing good work, try Michael Connelly or Robert Crais. And, if you want to see why Spencer is so popular, read some of Robert Parker's earlier works like Catskill Eagle or Double Deuce.
