Book Reviews of Maltese Falcon (Crime Masterworks 01)
Book Review: Best Mystery Novel ever
Summary: 5 Stars
This probably one of the best mystery novels ever written. Originally published in five issues of an old pulp magazine from 1929 to 1930, this has become the staple for fictional detectives without ethics. This novel and three short stories were the only fiction Dashiell Hammett ever wrote using the Sam Spade character, but I do recommend you also get the book, "The Radio Adventures of Sam Spade" also available on Amazon.com because it'll give you further adventures when you cannot get enough after reading this novel.
