About this listen

Artemus Black doesn't believe in fate...but even a hardened Hollywood PI can question destiny when cases turn ugly.

With an assistant who mocks him relentlessly, an obese cat that loathes him, a romantic life that's deader than Elvis, money problems, booze, nicotine, and anger management issues, how much worse can it get?

The answer is plenty, and Black finds himself in a web of deceit, betrayal, and murder - and bad hair days.

If you love Chandler and Hammett, Black's irreverent nod to the noir classics is sure to draw smiles and keep you listening late into the night.

Get it now!

A four-novel bundle of the critically acclaimed Black series from a New York Times best-selling author.

Through two books

I found Black is Back more entertaining than Black but liked the first book’s story better. To me there were more clues in the first story. The second was more of a surprise reveal than revealing the guilty party at the end of a mystery.
That said, I found myself smiling more listening to book 2. Part of the enjoyment was due to the continued development of the characters, part was more humorous writing. Russell Blake seemed to better understand what noir style is, the allusions were more thought-provoking. My favorite is near the end of the second book when Black was thinking back, “the vision was as vivid as a first kiss.”
The narration is good. R.C. Bray is clear and easy to understand, not easily done when voicing rap singers trying to prove their cred. It’s clear he understands who the characters are..

As expected: Bray Delivers!

Great story and bundle of books with Bray protraying each character in perfect reality especially, the Korean singers of the new hit song: Mugsy, oo-ah!

Fun modern noir...kinda

This is a fun listen and a bit more light heated than true noir. Well with the credit.
