4.0 out of 5 stars
FULL EDITION,
By Bill Cunningham "bill cunningham" (San Marcos, Tx. USA) - See all my reviews
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: The Underbelly (Outspoken Authors) (Paperback)
I think the prior reviewer must have purchased a chapter from the book that was orginally published online. This is a full edition, albeit short (more of a novella) by one of America's most grievously under-rated crime writers.

THE STUFF IS HERE!!!,
This review is from: The Underbelly (Outspoken Authors) (Paperback)
After being consumed for two days by Gary Phillip's UNDERBELLY, this is my review: THE - STUFF - IS - HERE!!! Put down that flat, watered-down forty you've been slurping and take a hit of this! The crack of mystery novels!!! The Underbelly has the hard-hitting pathos of T.R. Burnett's The Asphalt Jungle, and a humor equal to Chandler's. The only reason I can fathom for Phillip's obscurity is his shirtsleeve politics - scornful digs at the Brightbarts and Ann Coulters, cheerleading for the ACORNs who alleviate the suffering he describes so faithfully, right down to a skeletal vagrant taking a dump in an alleyway. His sleuth, Magrady, earns redemption by working for the community organization that has helped him along the way.

BEWARE! Part 12 of a series of chapters,
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: The Underbelly (Kindle Edition)
I thought I was getting the Kindle version of the book being released this month in print. However, it is just chapter 12 in an ongoing serial story. Nothing else! Don't buy this, even for a buck!
