SynopsisAuthorized by the estate of the late Raymond Chandler, this volume reveals the missing life history and detective adventures of Philip Marlowe, one of the 20th century's most enduring and beloved characters. Marlowe is the quintessential American detective: cynical yet idealistic; romantic yet full of despair; a gentleman capable of rough violence. The stories are written by some of the detective-mystery genre's leading lights, including Max Allan Collins, Sara Paretsky, Roger L. Simon, Stuart M. Kaminsky, Robert Crais, Edward Hoch, Ed Gorman, Eric Van Lustbader, Loren Estleman, Simon Brett, and Joyce Harrington. The final story in the volume is Raymond Chandler's last Marlowe adventure: The Pencil. The stories run chronologically through the career of Marlowe, from 1935 through 1960. These are classic Marlowe tales of betrayal, mistrust, and double-dealing on the seamy side of Los Angeles. You can share your thoughts about Raymond Chandler's Philip Marlowe in the new ibooks virtual readers' group at www.ibooksinc.com, Celebrating the centenary of Raymond Chandler's birth with a collection of new Philip Marlowe stories by 23 of the world's most renowned mystery writers.

Not Chandler Stories, but Good stories similar in nature to Chandler.
Although I haven't read all of the stories, the ones that I have read have been enjoyable. Although the book isn't what I expected, it is still a very good value.Verified purchase: YesCondition: Pre-owned
