I have been reading Robert Crais novels for years. Elvis and Joe only get better and better. I thoroughly enjoyed this story.

    Just What I Would Order
  

*by R***Z on Reviewed in the United States 🇺🇸 on August 8, 2019*

The new Robert Crais novel, A DANGEROUS MAN, is billed as an Elvis Cole and Joe Pike Novel.  It is really more of a Joe Pike and Elvis Cole Novel, since Joe is at the center of the action and is the person referred to in the book's title.The premise is implausible but intriguing.  Joe is going to the bank.  One of the tellers is directed to take an early lunch.  She is walking down the street and is then suddenly abducted by two men.  Woe be to them, for Joe is there.  He aborts their (as yet unexplained) plot and saves the girl.  The men are taken into custody, make bail, and are immediately murdered.  Whoa, what has Joe walked into?  The rest of the novel contains the answer to that question, with Elvis detecting and Joe delivering various forms of mayhem.  Along the way they meet a delightful U.S. Marshal, investigating the murder of a comrade in the Antelope Valley.  That fellow marshal is the 'uncle' (not blood relative, but close friend) of the girl saved by Joe back in Los Angeles.  The FBI are also interested in the case, so that Joe and Elvis find themselves protecting the (putatively) innocent girl but also dodging the lawmen and women who may frustrate their investigation.It's all complicated but completely intelligible and, ultimately, completely transparent and, within the world that Crais creates, plausible.  I liked it.  I enjoyed it, but then I've never met a Robert Crais novel that I didn't enjoy and I've read them all, from THE MONKEY'S RAINCOAT forward.  Crais is among the most polished crime writers in America.  He began writing scripts for major television crime series and then gave us Elvis Cole (twice the king, presumably).  Joe Pike is what I have termed the 'avenging angel' character in the series—the invincible sidekick (like Spenser's Hawk) who is always there when the chips are down, softening up a room and then supervising the body count.  A DANGEROUS MAN delivers precisely what I would order.There are some dissenting voices.  Elvis is no longer the jokester and wit that he once was.  True, but that has been so for many volumes now, and he still gets off a good one-liner from time to time.  There has also been criticism of the book's length and the amount of white space on its pages.  Note that the writer's and NYC editor's rule of thumb is that a book should be 40% dialogue.  This book is thus comparable to a book by the late Bob Parker, but A DANGEROUS MAN is approximately 100 pages longer than the average Parker novel.  Absent the rapid-fire dialogue, novels risk being lugubrious and here's an interesting fact (at least I think it's a fact): readers want the pages to fly by when they're reading.  One of the raps on, e.g., the Great Books of the Western World series is that it put so many words on the page.  DON QUIXOTE should be 600-800 pages, not 80-100.  We want to feel that we are making progress when we read and the physical size and length of a novel is part of the reading process.  We can feel the plot rhythms as we move further and further into the book and suddenly realize that we are physically reaching the conclusion.  Reading on tablets is different from reading in hard copy.Bottom line: a solid Crais novel, with Pike being the dominant figure.

    Great read!
  

*by C***W on Reviewed in the United States 🇺🇸 on March 11, 2023*

As always, Crais doesn’t disappoint. An exciting, can’t-put-down story with bad guys you love to hate, and good guys you’d love to know in real life. The author’s descriptions of action (sleuthing, chasing, shooting) read real and the characters have depth. A fun read.
