A woman ahead of her time, fearless, and always in the middle of solving a mystery! My first intro to Phyrne and OMG does the Masterpiece series tone her down. ( ) Pure delight - I haven't read anything that made me want to burble on in ages. Clever, funny, wonderfully rendered, from the people, to the sex scenes, to the clothing. Phryne Fisher is shaking up 1920's Melbourne, and solving mysteries as diverse as her list of friends. This omnibus edition has the first two books in the series, Cocaine Blues and Flying Too High. This is all [info]lizbee's fault. If she hadn't talked about the books so much, then I wouldn't have been so comprehensively sucked in. Phryne Fisher is a Mary Sue, there's no doubt about it. Beautiful, witty, intelligent, a great lover, rich, sympathetic when she needs to be, a champion flyer, a great driver, blah, blah, blah . . . But for some reason you can't look away. It's like a car wreck - you know it's bad intellectually (I'm not even going into how Greenwood screwed with the English and Ancient Greek language in one line), but you just can't look away. In these two books we meet our main characters and follow various small and larger mysteries. I'm looking forward to reading some more - though I wish the books themselves were better in telling you which one comes next in the series. geen besprekingen | voeg een bespreking toe
Onderdeel van de reeks(en)Phryne Fisher (1-2) Bevat
Phryne Fisher, rich, aristocratic and far too intelligent to be content as a flapper in the Jazz Age. She collects men, fast cars and designer dresses. But no matter how delicious the distractions, Phryne never takes her eyes off the main prize: bringing down villains. Geen bibliotheekbeschrijvingen gevonden. |
