It's not often I enjoy a collection of short stories as much as I did this one. While not for the faint of heart - some of the stories are quite gory - this is just the ticket for fans of hardboiled crime fiction. To use an analogy, reading this book is like going to an event that's being catered by 13 outstanding chefs, each of whom is serving just one dish. Naturally, some dishes are going to be more to your liking than others, but none disappoints, because each chef is a master at what he does. Gee, I'm hungry now. I did spot a couple of very minor editing errors that I'm sure will be addressed in subsequent editions. Still, I found "Beat to a Pulp" damn entertaining.
