Review of 'Gun machine' on 'Goodreads'

3 stars

This has been getting a lot of buzz, and while I admire its verve, I can’t say as I’m as blown away as some. I’m a huge fan of Ellis’ first novel Crooked Little Vein, a nasty little satire that hit all the right spots. Gun Machine, a crime thriller about possible the greatest serial killer in history, is more concerned with quirk than crime, and while I’m a great fan of quirk, it never falls completely together for me. It’s a good ride, don’t get me wrong, and worth reading, but I wanted something just a bit meatier.
