Book Reviews of The Blue KnightBook Review: NOT his best book Summary: 2 Stars
although the usual elements are there--defender of the faithful searching the heart of darkness (his own) at a crucial point in life (middle age); the good-as-gold woman who gets away; the woman who doesn't--sprinkled with stories cops tell each other. But it drags, as if written to a formula not fully developed. Wambaugh writes well, part Hemingway, part Joseph Conrad. But this adventure story for men misses in all but the gastronomical department.
Book Review: blue knight Summary: 4 Stars
one of Wambaugh's earliest which I had missed. It flowed well but the ending was very depressing.
