Title: Deceiving
Review: The most disappointing book that I've read in a very long time. I know that one shouldn't judge a book by it's cover, but this one was highly deceiving. By the title, the cover and the description, I thought that Steve King was writing a pulp mystery novel. He certainly didn't do that.What he wrote was a very long drawn out, sermonizing, story with one dimensional characters that one didn't care about who were telling a long, drawn out story that didn't go any where.Granted, some of the early pulp mysteries had one dimensional characters and no plots; however, those are not the stories that we remember from the Golden Age of Mystery.Mr. King didn't do this small press any favors when he wrote this book. I certainly won't be interested in anything else in their line.
Is the review positive or negative?
