Review: Good, Clean Humor at the Expense of Truman.
Rating: 5 out of 5

I enjoyed the stories about this troubled newspaper columnist. The situations that were thrust upon him were very laughable. In the beginning of the first book, I tired quickly of the predictable dialogue. But either the dialogue got better or I didn't mind it so much. If you like stories where revenge is played out against the arrogant, then you will enjoy this book. I enjoy mysteries and I enjoy humor. Though the humor here is mostly slapstick, that's ok. I'm a product of the 50's and 60's. When I first started reading this book, I was reminded of Sgt. Friday on Dragnet (The dialogue was just as corny there, too).  This book is really a bargain, because it contains two great books.  You don't have to wait for the sequel, because you have the second book in your hand.
