Chase to the rescue

The Chase Gordon series is always exciting and Gator Alley is no exception. I've recently started running and listening to a Chase Gordon story definitely reduces the suck of it. As long as the author, Douglas Pratt, keeps pumping out Chase Gordon books, I might be able to sustain this new hobby.

An enjoyable story

As I commented in previous reviews the author carries on a wonderful Florida mystery tradition of the white knight, in slightly battered armor working for individual justice. It's a place based series where the setting is a additional character.. I am 72 and still remember my dad turning me on to the Travis Mcgee books when I was in high school.almost sixty years ago. As I listened to the story, I smiled, and thought my father would have enjoyed this. The Author also uses some of John D Macdonald style by making his stories a ongoing sequence of the main characters life. The other thing that John D Macdonald did was add plenty of historic reference of current events in his stories. The author of this book does the same thing,so far. I enjoyed every book so far. I would encourage young fans of this series to read John D Macdonald, Travis Magee books.as well.
