Victor Gischler writes like he’s read every crime novel on planet Earth, and maybe even some from outer space. Standard issue characters walk his mass-market world, but Gischler’s dark wit punches out a bit more depth to their shadows. He’s someone I wanna have a beer with, and you can tell which characters he feels that way toward, too.

Fast Charlie Swift shoves a kid named Parker in a trash can, but it’s Gischler’s quick, low, and dirty prose specked with the occasional cigarette-thin slice of urban poetry is a far more fitting homage to Richard Stark’s rampaging thief from another time.
