Summary: I CAN'T GET ENOUGH OF BOSCH
Review: I just love Harry Bosch, out all my fav detectives/cops/forensic scientists, Harry is just a sensational, brilliant detective, who always gets his way eventually and always cracks the case so wide open, that you are always reading just a little bit more...In this one, Bosch is investigating the murder of a former Vietnam buddy that was found in a pipeline. But, in true Connelly style, murders are not what they seem and soon Bosch is actually investigating robberies that are somehow connected to his dead friend. What I love the most about Bosch is that he is such a tough detective, that you can't help but love him and the millions of times, he gets thrown off cases for being too damn good. Connelly is an excellent writer and although this is not quite as good as "The Poet" or "The Concrete Blonde", it is still a brilliant book for his second time. I love "The Black Echo" as it kept me up all night just piecing everything together and wondering what happens next and who else is involved... Excellent work from an excellent author!

Summary: A good read
Review: The first of Connelly's Bosch novels smacks of first-time writer. The ending of the novel is directly from several action movies over the past twenty years, however this does little to detract from the overall excellence of the book. Bosch is a tough cop and a character that is easy to sympathize with as he works against the bad guys and the good guys to solve the case. A loose cannon in every respect, Bosch works by his own code of ethics. Although this is not Connelly's best work, one would be hard pressed to not say that it shows promise, and no one should let this book escape their attention.

Summary: An Amazing Debut Novel
Review: I am always excited when I discover a new author I think I might enjoy. At the same time I tend to be skeptical, until that author shows me that they can write an entertaining story. The last debut novel that blew me away was Caleb Carr's The Alienest. Michael Connelly's, The Balck Echo blew me away as well. This is a great book. It is engaging, exciting and extrememly well written. The mystery is well constructed and the resolution rings true. I can't wait to read the next book in the series. If it's half as good it will be amazing!!!

Summary: Not My Favorite Connelly Novel, but it was still OK.
Review: This being my 4th Michael Connelly novel, was not as good as the other three. I think that it was still a good novel, but just not great! I have read so many books that I get kinda critical. But, if you are a veteran of the Vietnam War, then you might find it interesting with all the underground tunnel warfare tactics. It turned out to have a good ending, but I didn't think that Mr. Connelly needed to have Ms. Wish involved with the conspiracy, since she was such a likeable character throughout the entire book. If I were you, buy "The Poet," probably my favorite Michael Connelly novel.

Summary: Hard To Put It Down Once You Start Reading
Review: This was my first Michael Connelly book, and after breezing thru this I know it won't be my last. The action gets started right away & never lets up. Det. Harry Bosch is a former Vietnam War vet, a tunnel rat who saw plenty of action during his tour there. It turns out the case he's called in to work on involves the body of an old war buddy named Bill Meadows. Harry has to find out who killed him and why. His maverick ways of doing his job have gotten him in trouble in the past, transferring him to Hollywood Homicide where he is under surveillance by 2 IAD detectives named(I kid you not)Lewis & Clarke! I won't divulge any further info but must tell you if you like great mysteries with likeable detectives then get started with this book & look for further books with Harry Bosch as the main character. Highly recommended.

Summary: Fantastic
Review: Having been a Patricia Cornwell fan for years, it has been difficult to find another author of the same standard in mystery writing. Finally, i have found one. Michael Connelly is fantastic and his first novel "The Black Echo" was gripping, insightful and entertaining. I learnt alot about police procedures, vietnam war veterans and of course Bosch. Looking forward to reading more of his books.

Summary: Glad to meet you Harry
Review: I found this book online and ordered it, little did i know that i would start one of the greatest series i have ever read. Harry Bosch is an incredible character. Any fans of Chandler would love this. I have read all six Bosch novels and feel like Harry is a friend. If you like series and police procedurals pick this one up first. CONNELLY ROCKS!

Summary: Read this now!
Review: What a fantastic book! If you enjoy great reading and great characters plus a fast paced novel than you must read this. You never have a slow part and you never feel like it is all happening too fast. I had bought this book a couple of months ago and been reading other books for awhile figuring I would just get around to it but why in the world did I wait? It makes a lot of the other thriller/mysteries out right now look naive. If you are even half interested get this book and read it. Awesome!
