Natkanda Kulchanaphanit mnk91design — ** spoiler alert ** I had mixed feelings about this one. The setting bugged me a little - just because I'm not particularly interested in that time period or that geographical region, but I was able to get past that one pretty easily. But, throughout the whole book, I was unsure about how I felt about it. I wanted to like it, but I think the author overdid it with the heavy issues in quite a few places, and almost all the characters themselves were not very likable people, making the book a little hard to like, although the characters were vividly written. I also was a little disappointed with the ending - it seemed a little contrived to me, and I think it would have been a little more heartbreaking and a little bit better of a story if the characters had gone never knowing the secret. Despite this, the concept for the plot was a good one, and Edwards is such a beautiful writer that despite my mixed-feelings on the story itself, I had a hard time putting it down.

Sarah Radzi saraloo — I read all of the Archer books some thirty-five years ago, and since then I have been under the impression that none of the books until The Galton Case was worthy of attention. I was wrong. True, The Moving Target (Archer #1) lacks a family tragedy with haunted children that is the hallmark of later Archer, and it also lacks a disciplined series of images--both in metaphor and in the visuals evoked by the narrative--that carry us to the heart of the classic Archer tale. Still, there's enough here to make it worth your while. The fringes of Hollywood are handled with flair (a sleazy piano bar with B-girls and a coke-head soloist, plus a has-been actress--and former S&M club mistress of ceremonies--turned astrologer/grifter), Archer's narrative voice is spare, elegant and already close to perfect, the imagery is precise, and the picture of a money-obsessed Southern California society living off the energy of countless anonymous Mexicans and Filipinos is very well done. I thought the first and last part of the book were better than the middle (which relies a little too much on cliches of the genre), but this is still the work of a fine genre writer, well on his way to becoming a master.

Sonny Marttz sonnymartt4751 — The plot is similar to Kafka's Metamorphosis, but he turns into a giant breast rather than a giant cockroach. I just couldn't get with this book. Maybe I'm not interested enough in breasts? But I'm male, so that seems unlikely. I give up.

Steve White stevewhiteraven — Second time reading this. It's still one of my favorite books of all time.
