Title: The Triumph of the Thriller
Review: I never paid much attention to the "thriller" genre, although I had read a few books that Mr. Anderson writes about. Many of us book lovers have read an Agatha Christie or a Sherlock Holmes story. But in "The Triumph of the Thriller," Patrick Anderson gives us the history of the thriller how it has evolved and what's being written now; from the earliest Edgar Allen Poe and A. C. Doyle stories - through the writings of Chandler and Cain - to present day authors such as Karin Slaughter, Michael Connelly and Peter Abrahams, among many others. After readng Pat Anderson's book, I immediately ordered a bunch of books by his recommended authors and I haven't been disappointed! It was a great read!
