The Case of the Green-Eyed Sister Reviews

The ramifications of the story really come together. -Kirkus on The Case of the Green Eyed Sister

With Perry Mason, Erle Stanley Gardner introduced to American letters the notion of the lawyer as a hero-and detective-which were remarkable innovations. He even gave defense lawyers a good name to boot. His Mason books remain tantalizing on every page and brilliant. -Scott Turow, author of Presumed Innocent and Testimony.

No one has ever matched Gardner for swift, sure exposition' -Kirkus

Gardner has a way of moving the story forward that Is almost a lost art: great stretches of dialogue alternate with lively chunks of exposition, and the two work together perfectly, without sacrificing momentum. -Booklist

About Erle Stanley Gardner

Erle Stanley Gardner (1889-1970) was the top selling American author of the twentieth century, primarily due to the enormous success of his Perry Mason Mysteries, which numbered more than eighty and inspired a half-dozen motion pictures and radio programs, as well as a long-running television series starring Raymond Burr. Having begun his career as a pulp writer, Gardner brought a hard-boiled style and sensibility to his early Mason books, but he gradually developed into a more classic detective novelist, providing clues to allow astute readers to solve his many mysteries. For over a quarter of a century, he wrote more than a million words a year under his own name as well as numerous pseudonyms, the most famous being A. A. Fair.
