5.0 out of 5 stars
Thoroughly engaging. An rich, exciting, funny journey.
The Amazon.com description is accurate. The writing is on the mark and reads like every detective novel you ever read combined with a be-bop rythym of New York as it really was. Beautifully designed and thoughtfully paced, this is a perfect marriage of word, image and design. The most original book I've seen in years. You simply can't put it down.

1.0 out of 5 stars
Potential destroyed by brevity
Unique concept, but is that all there is? I read it in Borders bookstore in 20 minutes!!! Additionally, the book is supposed to be celebrating the sleeze era of Times Square, yet it seems to be more interested in generating a noir movie myth than looking at the reality.
