The Burglar Who Counted The Spoons by Lawrence Block
The long-awaited eleventh novel in the Bernie Rhodenbarr series.
"It's a delight to find the burglar back on his best form, proving that, even at 75, Block is still one of the greatest crime writers of his or any other generation" * DAILY MAIL *
"Established fans know what to expect - neat, suspenseful plotting, howlingly funny one-liners, irresistable characters and endlessly quotable dialogue. New comers to this marvelous series are to be greatly envied." * MORNING STAR *
"Block returns with a bang after a decade away." * NORTHERN ECHO *
"Block's dialogue sparkles with wit and learned literary references, asides to crime-fiction addicts are plentiful." -- Marcel Berlins * TIMES *
A crisp and assured read, sumptuously funny but the overriding feeling I'm left with after turning over the final page - gratification. It made me smile throughout and from a book, you can't ask any more than that. A wonderful and warm read, a great introduction, albeit a late one, to a series that I now have no option other than to begin at the beginning! * MILORAMBLES *
