Old-Fashioned Crime Fiction: "Career of Evil" by Robert Galbraith/J. K. Rowling
Published October 20th 2015.
After reading the first two installments ("The Cuckoo's Calling" by Robert Galbraith/J. K. Rowling, "The Silkworm" by Robert Galbraith/J. K. Rowling), I had no doubts I’d be reading the third. And here it is. After having finished it, was it worth it?
Melikes a good detective novel, and what I like about this is that it’s unashamedly in love with Crime Fiction. Should we have novels with more balanced detectives rather than damaged ones? Well, I for one like them dirty, rugged, and foul-mouthed so to speak…The more the better. If my protagonist is lucky in love, the opposite of hopeless at relationships, he may not be better than the mustachioed doughnut eaters who miss all the clues and don’t do a proper job at investigating.
Read on, if you wish to do so.
