This review is from: Mcnallys Luck (Paperback)

I hemmed over the purchase of the book. When I started to read it [My first Sanders book] I was delighted by the characters. No one is what they seem. The first impression is stereotypes but I found that everyone had depths that you would never have attributed to them [Peaches too]. Archie who seems as feather headed as they come and is up there with the best.

The plot twists are tied together neatly leaving a satisfied feeling at the end. While looking for other McNally's books I discovered that Lawrence Sanders had died. I felt the disappointment I feel when I find that one of my favorite authors has died. It says a lot on the first book to get that feeling.

I almost turned it down when I read the reviews if you love Block you'll love this. I hate Block. I love Sanders. I plan on reading the rest of Sander's McNally books and plan on the others too. It was a pleasing suprise. Try it you might be also pleased and suprised.

5.0�toiles sur 5 best 2nd book in a series I ever read, Mai 31 2003

This review is from: McNally's Luck (Audio Cassette)

How could you possibly top McNally's Secret? Well, somehow Lawrence Sanders managed to do just that, with this superb second entry in the McNally series. Archy is first hired to find a kidnapped cat (held for $50K ransom!?), but the case soon involves murder as well. The investigation leads to a mysterious fortune teller, who leads Archy through a most entertaining seance. Archy finds and loses love as well. Combining heads with the Palm Beach police detective Sgt Rogoff, Archy untangles this twisted tale through a series of adulterous affairs. I must admit that I was successful in unveiling the first killer, whose alibi fell apart in just the way I suspected. Nevertheless, this book was satisfying, and most of all, FUN!

If you love Lawrence Block's Bernie the Burglar series, you will love McNally.

This review is from: Mcnallys Luck (Paperback)

Lawrence Sanders is one of my favorite authors, and when I first read the McNally detective series, I was instantly hooked. Archie McNally is one of the best characters in mystery fiction that I have ever read (in my "expert" opinion). Archie is a rogue that loves life and all the guilty pleasures that come with it. Yet, Archie has a good conscience, (when he dosen't trip over into the bedroom of latest beautiful woman he encounters). Lawrence Sanders always describes the meals his detective consume in delicious detail. I wish their was a Pelican Inn near where I live, like the one that Archy goes to for lunch and dinner.

In every McNally novel, there is the relationship between Prescott McNally (Archy's father) who probably looked like Lawrence Sanders, Prescott, is the epitome of an "old fashioned Gentleman" who lives in Florida. Yet I believe Sanders was more like Archy in real life.

The first person narrative of Archy is clever. His wit is truely hillarious and the way he describes his detective work, his daily encounter with life and the people he deals with is captivating. I can't speak highly enough of this series. My sincere wish is that a network would make these into a movie of the week, and I would love to see who they can pick to portray Archy. However, until then and long afterwards I will anxiously await the next adventure of Archy, no matter if it is written by another author, since the truely sad passing of the late great Lawrence Sanders.
