A "Fletch Club" Favorite

There are readers who've waxed unkind upon such sublime, escapist fare as Gregory McDonald's "Fletch" series of mystery/comedy/ adventures. With 1993's "Son of Fletch," it's obvious what so many have hinted at for decades--yes, decades. There's a pacing here, and a necessary passing of time; and, to long-time readers of the inimitable Fletch, dozens of most-welcomed references to previous characters and situations that the most loyal will revel in, savor. And, there's a new outlaw in the mix: Fletch's alleged son, Jack Fletcher Faoni (remeber Crystal?), if he's to be believed, seems a chip off the old block, indeed...It's true literary joy to witness the two attempt to figure out one another, while whisked away on another cause-and-effect-laden fact-gathering expedition. Though it's as UN-intellectually challenging as fiction gets, McDonald scores, with dialogue fit for, well, a Chevy Chase film, charac- ters with enough personality to fuel a book of their own (remember Flynn?), and a readablility that is simply not matched in American mystery writing today. Which is exactly what members of the club keep coming back for, again and again. Bravo, Fletch. Wouldja pass the orange juice?

Wonderful!!!!

I usually don't get into mysterys but this one was amazing! I'm a fast reader, I finished this in just two days i couldn't put it down. Thank you!!!

Thank heaven -- FLETCH IS BACK!!!

McDonald's only real failures in his Fletch series is that there are not enough of them. "Son of Fletch" gives the reader of the series a sense of the passage of time and gives the first time Fletch reader a wonderful adventure full of mystery and intrigue from beginning to end. This book is a sure winner -- BUY IT NOW!!!
