Reseñas de la Crítica

"Highly enjoyable.... Populated with an admirable array of laughable miscreants, this droll, savage novel is vintage Lansdale. The author's storytelling powers remain as strong as ever." (Publishers Weekly)

"[A] down-and-dirty riff on Double Indemnity, a provocative new variation on James M. Cain’s noir classic...an enjoyably cynical cruise down the back roads to perdition." (Lisa Henricksson, Airmail)

"Southern crime legend Joe Lansdale channels his best James M. Cain world vision.... Readers can expect to be transported in the usual Lansdale fashion, as nobody does those East Texas period details quite like Lansdale, who always delivers with a finely-crafted, engaging, compulsive crime story in his home terrain." (Dwyer Murphy, CrimeReads)

Wow

Wow!!!! You can’t beat this story… Not with 18 sticks. You’re wasting time by not starting it yet.

Crime Noir Thriller

Whenever a new Joe Lansdale novel is released, my expectations are extremely high and MOON LAKE certainly lives up to those high expectations. MOON LAKE is an excellent stand alone murder mystery with very memorable characters and interesting twists. Listening to MOON LAKE was a great experience and I plan to revisit this audiobook in the future.

love lansdale stories!

I've enjoyed everything that I have listened to and read from Lansdale. His creative descriptions of scenes tend to make me smile or even laugh out loud at times. His Hap and Leonard stories have been my favorites, but these others are also very enjoyable. Moon lake is completely worth every minute.

Enjoyable

Excellent narration. I was never confused about who was speaking regardless of the context.

nah

Waste of time and audible credit. Sad but true. Sorry. Pretty toothless reading. I'd give it about a one of five.
