Chicago Lightning : The Collected Nathan Heller Short Stories (Nate Heller) ReviewI've been a huge fan of Max Allan Collins' Nate Heller series since I discovered "True Detective" in junior high, and this short story compilation is a wonderful addition to his Heller novels. Collins is one of the few authors that keeps the "true" hardboiled private eye genre alive for fans of Hammett and Spillane, Chandler and Ross Macdonald, and in re-reading his series this year so that my memory was refreshed when "Bye Bye Baby" was released this summer, I fell in love with his work all over again. Max seamlessly weaves his fictional character in with historical figures and events, putting Nate Heller right in the middle of the action as it goes down, and there is never a dull moment in any of his work. The writing is always crisp and the dialogue is always sharp, and the characters, both fictional and real life, are always well-drawn and interesting to meet. The historical detail is amazing and I've enjoyed how Nate has "solved" some of the most famous unsolved crimes of our times. The short stories in the "Chicago Lightning" collection are a treat to read, especially the Thelma Todd story, "Perfect Crime", and "Kaddish For The Kid". I definitely recommend ALL of the Nate Heller novels, they're a wonderfully exciting read that will keep you turning the pages loooong after your bedtime, and Collins' crisp prose and historical details, along with the fast-paced action and amazing characters does the hardboiled genre justice...I'm glad I met Nate Heller all those years ago, and I'm even happier to see him return for more adventure, because it's been one HELLUVA thrill ride to enjoy!Chicago Lightning : The Collected Nathan Heller Short Stories (Nate Heller) Overview
