Brilliant Writer / Great Book,
By
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Citizen One (Paperback)
Andy Oakes is a writer who far exceeds even the highest expectations for his genre which is Asian noir. Firstly,
this book is fabulous, sleep-stealing entertainment. Mr. Oakes detective Piao is a terrific, complex literary creation. True to genre, he is a man of principle in a corrupt world. But it is impossible to believe that this world - contemporary Chinese bureaucracy and elitism - is a figment of Mr. Oakes imagination. So many parts of this book ring true that it is hard to remain calm and collected at times. The writing is crisp, literate, fast. This is a writer of great talent in some ways comparable to the superb James Church. Read this one; you will not be disappointed from beginning to end. |
