If you know already know the writings of J.L.B., then I need say no more.
If you don't, but have a love of dark violent, well-wrtitten stories, and think you might enjoy some action packed stories with a sense of melancholy, a angry and violent (yet literate and well meaning) narrator, and tales of vicious crimes, punishment (and usually, revenge of some sort), set amidst the the jails and mean steets of New Orleans, and the bayous,rivers and small towns of South Lousiana, buy "The Neon Rain", and start at the beginning.The narrator's best friend (in most of the books) is one of the most unforgettable and enjoyable "alter-egos" in history.
Tragedy, love, friendship, murder, mayhem, as well as unforgettable dialogue and characters, make James Lee Burke one of my favorite fiction authors of all time.
