Title: Mickey Spillane is a hack
Review: Truly, truly bad... If you want good noir, see, Hammett or Chandler (both pof the Macdonalds are great too). Spillane simply does not know how to write: the prose is awful, the murderer managed to be both obvious and utterly implausible, the main character is an egotistical brute with no redeeming values. Very unpleasant to read.If you must read Spillane, you might try his later work--its possible he learned to write in his later years...
