What a wonderful trip down memory lane,

This review is from: Whodunit?: Detective Stories (Paperback)
It is always a pleasure to see what the authors we love read. Most of the short stories in this compilation were not new to me, but what a joy to read them again. The few stories I had not yet read were also enjoyable and introduced me to a few new authors. This is the sort of book to keep in your car, or on hand for those times when a short story is just the thing to keep your mind working and prevent boredom.
