5.0 out of 5 stars A going-back to your childhood book, for a man of violence, July 13, 1999
By A Customer
This review is from: The Deep (Paperback)
This is one of the best Mickey Spillane books because it appeals to a broader audience by not being quite as quick to violence as his Mike Hammer series. I have given this book to people who thought they would never read a Mickey Spillane book, and they have enjoyed it.

5.0 out of 5 stars As hard-bitten and gutsy as a brassy blonde dame, September 20, 1997
By 
Ray King (Morgan Hill, Ca USA) - See all my reviews
This review is from: The Deep (Paperback)
If you like your books with a hard edge and to heck with political correctness, "The Deep" will deliver.

Returning to avenge the murder of his childhood partner in crime, Deep fights the mob, the cops, politicians, basically everyone in the city. There's a mystery here but mostly it's a chance to see a 50's man's man make hamburger out of anyone who gets in his path. Spillane may not be the most polished writer but he has a visceral style that makes you smell the garbage in the alley and see the teeth fly as they shatter against a gun barrel.

5.0 out of 5 stars The master of last minute plot twists, April 30, 1999
By A Customer
This review is from: The Deep (Paperback)
I've read a lot of books. Every once in a while I read a book that takes me by supprise. This book not only did that, it took me to a bar, got me drunk, and left me wanting more. Mr. Spillane is one of the best writers that it has been my pleasure to read. He makes that Louis L'amor guy look like a girly-boy. While this book isn't for the squeemish, I would highly recomend it to anyone who likes last-minute kicks in the head.
