5.0étoiles sur 5 Love that Travis!, Juil 12 2004
Par Rocco Dormarunno (Brooklyn, NY) - Voir tous mes commentaires
(TOP 1000 REVIEWER)    (REAL NAME)   
While I still find "Flash of Green" to be my favorite MacDonald book, there's something so appealing about the Travis McGee series that keeps me coming back to them. And "Darker than Amber" has such a quick pace, that you cannot put this mystery down. And Travis, well, he's just Travis--you gotta love this guy! I just hope that MacDonald continues to gain in popularity, as I feel he is horribly overlooked.

4.0étoiles sur 5 A Travis McGee novel., Avril 23 2004
Par James Yanni (Bellefontaine Neighbors, Mo. USA) - Voir tous mes commentaires
(REAL NAME)   
The Travis McGee series is a very extensive (21 books) series by John D. MacDonald; the main character is a delightful personality, something of a cross between a standard hero and a con man antihero, and the books are all well-written and enjoyable, something of a cross between action-adventure and detective-mystery. There are certain similarities between the plots of the books, but there are generally enough differences to keep them from being truly formulaic.

The books are all capable of standing on their own; a new reader can start with any one of them without feeling that he is missing anything, and this book is a perfectly good place to start, although it is the seventh written. The stories were set in the contemporary world, and are thus a bit dated now as they were written in the sixties and seventies, but this book is less jarringly so than some of the others.

5.0étoiles sur 5 A dark tale that sparkles., Mai 30 2002
Par Chadwick H. Saxelid "Bookworm" (Concord, CA United States) - Voir tous mes commentaires
(REAL NAME)   
Part time white knight and full time beach bum Travis McGee rescues a rotten to the core damsel in considerable distress. Seems this beautiful sociopath has developed a serious case of the conscience, something her now former partners have not. When the girl meets her inevitable and quite bitter fate, McGee (always the one to right a terrible wrong, and this girl was behind some truly terrible ones) and his friend Meyer begin plotting revenge. MacDonald's writing, as usual, sparkles with wit, insight, and tension. Read any of MacDonald's novels and you'll see why he was such a highly respected author. Recommended.
