The Black Lizard Big Book of Black Mask Stories (Vintage Crime/Black Lizard) Review: One of the Best - I would definitely say this has been one of the best book purchases I've ever made; great to read on the go with your Kindle app on your phone or with your actual Kindle if you have one of those. There are a ton of stories in these types of anthologies, a lot of the stories are from authors you most likely have never heard of but they get to be heard again here after all the years since their original publication. I look forward to getting another one of these, and maybe in print so I can have them on the shelf to read anytime! I simply love the Noir genre, and when you are used to the caliber and authenticity you get from these vintage stories, you will find that there's really no other modern author of the genre as can compare even to the most unknown of these authors from the heyday of pulp fiction. Review: A Great Read - This book with its collection of stories from Black Mask magazine is an absolute treasure. These stories from the so called pulps comprise examples of the best kind of story telling. Short and to the point they establish, plot and character quickly and economically and then wind through their twists and turns to a resolution within a very few pages. The writing is unrivalled in its descriptive nature using a wonderful economy of expression to achieve a maximum of impact. All of the stories are uniformly good although one has one's favourites. None of them are unreadable and the short introductory piece prefacing every tale tells us all we need to know about the author. Not surprisingly many of these writers also wrote scripts for Hollywood in its golden days and these authors penned almost every script for the wonderful film noir movies that featured the likes of Humphrey Bogart, Jimmy Cagney, Edward G Robinson and many less famous but equally talented actors. This book and its companion piece are great buys and represent amazing value. I loved them. ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | Best Sellers Rank | #836,595 in Books ( See Top 100 in Books ) #210 in Mystery Anthologies (Books) #931 in Short Stories Anthologies #1,998 in Hard-Boiled Mystery | | Customer Reviews | 4.7 out of 5 stars 154 Reviews | ## Images ![The Black Lizard Big Book of Black Mask Stories (Vintage Crime/Black Lizard) - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/815vaUDWLFL.jpg) ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ One of the Best *by A***W on December 23, 2019* I would definitely say this has been one of the best book purchases I've ever made; great to read on the go with your Kindle app on your phone or with your actual Kindle if you have one of those.
