Review title: If you haven't read any other Walter Mosley books, DO NOT READ THIS ONE
Product review: My biggest fear is that someone who has heard about how great a writer Walter Mosley is will pick up this book as an introduction and that would be a horrible mistake. I know of no author with the skill and perception, and sensitivity displayed by Mosley in his other books. But he just plain didn't do it here All I can think is that every author is entitled to a bummer. There is much about sex in this book, and there is much about death. And I will admit, because there are some rave reviews for this book, that I might have missed something. I will say that if you've read several of the author's books, go on and try this one. But please, don't read this until you've read at least a couple of the Easy Rawlins books, and at least one of the Socrates Fortlow books so that you know what Walter Mosley is capable of.
