I have to say when I read the first book with this new character I was not all that impressed. Don't get me wrong, it was okay but I did enjoy it but it wasn't one of his best efforts I'm not sure if it was the character I didn't like how the story went I just can't put my finger on it. but this book was truly amazing, very much a character who I will now follow. the ending was great

A lot more than I expected

Let me start by saying at first I was very unimpressed with the narration, I am sorry but it just was not my cup of tea. BUT as the book went on and the story became more engaging, It sort of grew on meme. Now I hope the second book uses the the same man to narrate. Go figure This is sort fo a coming of age story, 2 guys, Key west transplants and lots of adventures, how could it go wrong? The answer is it can't. The characters the stories the pace all were perfect. Some of it a bit unbelievable., but so much fun. The story is about 2 guys, best friends ,; Kansas Stamps and Will Bell and its begins in 1971 and its a romp through the early part of the decade. I highly recommend this book

What did you love best about Florida Straits?

There was nothing to not like. This book combined my love of New York life and Key west life. The two come together like oil and water, but in the end it all gets sorted out.

What other book might you compare Florida Straits to and why?

The style reminds me Tim Dorsey.

What does Richard Ferrone bring to the story that you wouldn’t experience if you just read the book?

His voice, was amazing!

Did you have an extreme reaction to this book? Did it make you laugh or cry?

I laughed and cried.

Any additional comments?

This is 3rd book in the series and while you could easily read this one without reading the others, I suggest you do not do that, reading he first two gives you prospective. Typically well crafted novel, attention to details and interesting sub-plots. This entry in the Amos Decker series is possibly the most emotional, heart strings pulled but to the authors credit he did not try to use his book to promote a political agenda like so many do today. Kudos - I give this 5 stars and 5 fulls Lenny's - hang on its fun ride! I do hope there is a 4th book in the works

Made me smile, very easy to listen to and very enjoyable

Any additional comments?

First of all in all fairness and in the spirit of openness, let me tell you that I received a free copy of this book from the narrator. Let me also preface this by saying I am not a big fan of Pulp fiction, but this book may have changed my mind about that. The Author, Jim Beard, took an Iconic action figure from the late 1960’s and brought him to life. The story takes place during the Cold war era and while I was not crazy about the yacht cap our hero wore , that seemed a bit odd, the story its self was enjoyable. The descriptions of the various locals provided imagery and added that level of realism needed. Very well done. There were characters left out from the original stories, but this had no effect on this novel.

In summary if You are looking to spend some time with a highly entertaining book, this is one you should read. It’s fun and not to “serious” , I may now need to read more modern Pulp fiction.
