4.0 out of 5 stars Max Allan Collins captures the flavor of the show perfectly., August 24, 1998

By A Customer

This review is from: NYPD Blue: Blue Beginning (NYPD Blues) (Paperback)

"NYPD Blue: Blue Begining" is a worthy supplement to the series. Designed as a prequel to the series, it retains the gritty flavor of the show. Collins knows the characters inside and out, and as the novel progresses one can visualize the "episode" of the novel perfectly. There is a nice blend of humor, emotion and toughness here that fans of "NYPD Blue" have grown accustomed to. It's a must-read for fans of the show as well as the uninitiated.
