 2008-11-24 - Another Winner
The Brass Verdict is a great tale of courtroom drama.It also has a police present and focuses on the two strong characters, both attorney and detective.
I thought this was one of the authors strongest and most interesting stories and recommend it to all Michael Connelly readers
 2008-11-24 - Disappointing
I have waited for this book for years! I have read every book by Michael Connelly ever wrote and loved them all, this book fell flat. I was so disappointed there was no suspense, no character development, nothing. I always (I am a Librarian) recommend Michael to my patrons, but I won't recommend this one. Hopefully the future will bring back what was captured in the past.
 2008-11-24 - The Brass Verdict: A Novel
Not that impressed. Suddenly Harry Bosch is working homicides again without any mention as to why he left closed cases and I'm not that big of fan of Micky Haller. Very disappointed that Harry Bosch was cast into a supportive role and that role was very minor. And suddenly he and Mike Haller are step-bothers.

I thoroughly enjoyed it, I hope we can see more of teaming up between
Harry Bosh and the Lincoln Lawyer in the future
2008-11-24 - Just not his best
I am sorry to say I was just not drawn into this plot. Of course, there were those tense scenes in which I felt the jolt of excitement I remember feeling when reading the Lincoln Lawyer. However, for a significant part of this novel I felt as if I was reading a text book. Several of the scenes were too drawn out and boring. Now, I realize in my last review of a Connelly novel I stated the read was too short. It almost appears as if the author realized this as well, perhaps negative feedback, and tried to overcompensate by writing an overly long novel that, at times, was almost exhausting to get through. Sorry for the negative review but Connelly is one of my favorite authors so I am confident his next work will coicide with some of his best accomplishements.
