“The crowning surprise of “Cooler Than Cool” is that it stirs the heart.”

“Consistently engrossing.”

“A thoroughly researched chronicle of Leonard and his literary career. Likely to be popular where Brian Jay Jones’s and Walter Isaacson’s biographies circulate well.”

” For Leonard’s legion of fans the book is a must-read, but you don’t need to be a Leonard fan to enjoy this beautifully crafted life story.”

“A welcome celebration of a writer who, word by word and page by page, earned every bit of his fame.”

“A strong overview of a towering crime novelist’s career, this satisfies.”
