I am really loving this series. The twist was interesting...can't give it away. I wish I could watch the TV series. There was a commercial for the series playing on TV tonight but unfortunately it is an exclusive “Crave TV” production. I will continue to read. Books are their own magic.
A great detective mystery with a solid plot and great writing. I didn't see any of the twists coming, but in retrospect I can see the set-up for it. All you can ask for from this genre.
A good follow-up to the premier Harry Bosch novel. Black Echo left Harry in an odd place and made me wonder where the character could go from here. Black Ice plausibly moved the character ahead. I am way behind the curve reading Michael Connelly, but I am enjoying catching up. There are a few instances that are a little far fetched and stretch believability - but that is why we read novels and not newspapers. The skill Connelly displays is in showing the way Bosch handles his reality. He comes across as a fully fleshed person dealing with extraordinary circumstances. The same drive that makes Bosch a good detective is the same drive that won't allow him to be shut out of an investigation. Over all, a great read that moves Bosch and his world forward.
