James Lee Burke is, for my money, the best mystery author in print. His writing style is flawless. He describes Louisiana like no one else can. His characters are very human and flawed, and the plots develop with surprising twists and turns. His main character, Dave Robicheaux is a complicated policeman with a complicated life. The series can be read in any order, but they should be read by anyone who can appreciate a really good book by a really great writer. - Carol Maske

James Lee Burke at the top of his form, says Tony Hillerman--and I agree.
