Nimisha Upadhyaya –
Ellroy creates an absorbing, if bleak, world in post-Pearl Harbor LA. The complex plot and morally grey characters kept me engaged, despite the darkness.
Yash Kumar –
Not my favorite Ellroy book, but still a solid piece of crime fiction. Some parts felt unnecessary.
Vipin Kumar –
The book was difficult to get into, but worth it in the end. The historical elements were interwoven into the story well.
Mohd. Aqdas –
A brutal, unflinching look at wartime LA. The language is harsh, but the story is gripping. A challenging but rewarding read.
Anurag Srivastava –
The story was interesting, but the writing style was a little hard to follow at times. Overall, a decent read.
Alvin Clin Narzary –
A grim, but great novel about the dark side of humanity during the World War period. Not for the faint of heart.
Suryanshu Shekhar Singh –
A bit too cynical for my taste. The non-stop barrage of corruption got tiring after a while. Well-written, though.
Paridhi Jain –
I was hooked from the first page. The plot twists and turns kept me guessing until the very end.
Prajjwal Sahu –
Ellroy at his most visceral. The plot is dense, the characters morally bankrupt. Not for the faint of heart, but undeniably powerful.
Megha Sapra –
I struggled to connect with any of the characters. The plot was convoluted and the ending unsatisfying.
Rishabh Raj Harsh –
A masterpiece of noir. The atmosphere is palpable, the tension unbearable. Be prepared to be disturbed.
Biswajit Barman –
Gritty and dark, just as I expected from Ellroy. The characters are fascinating, even if you hate them. Highly recommended.
Kiran Sudhakar More –
A gripping crime novel. The post Pearl Harbour setting really added to the thrilling plot.
Hanish Kumar –
Dark, dense, and disturbing. It’s a challenging read, but if you like noir, you will appreciate this.
Abhay Deepakkumar Gadhiya –
Ellroy doesn’t pull any punches. This is a raw and unflinching portrayal of a dark chapter in American history.
Raghav Bajpai –
Overly complex and sometimes confusing. I got lost in the plot at times. Still, Ellroy’s writing is undeniable.
