Product Information

She shot him just above the belt and left him for dead. Then they torched the house, with Parker in it, and took the money he had helped them steal. It all went down just the way they'd planned, except for one thing: Parker didn't die. In The Hunter , the first volume in the Parker series, our ruthless antihero roars into New York City, seeking revenge on the woman who betrayed him and on the man who took his money, stealing and scamming his way to redemption. The volume that kickstarted Parker's forty-plus-year career of larceny--and inspired the 1967 motion picture Point Blank , starring Lee Marvin-- The Hunter is back, ready to thrill a new generation of noir fans.

Reviews
I wouldn''t care to speculate about what it is in Westlake''s psyche that makes him so good at writing about Parker, much less what it is that makes me like the Parker novels so much. Suffice it to say that Stark/Westlake is the cleanest of all noir novelists, a styleless stylist who gets to the point with stupendous economy, hustling you down the path of plot so briskly that you have to read his books a second time to appreciate the elegance and sober wit with which they are written., "Richard Stark writes a harsh and frightening story of criminal warfare and vengeance with economy, understatement and a deadly amoral objectivitya remarkable addition to the list of the shockers that the French call romans noirs."Anthony Boucher, New York Times Book Review, Richard Stark writes a harsh and frightening story of criminal warfare and vengeance with economy, understatement and a deadly amoral objectivity--a remarkable addition to the list of the shockers that the French call romans noirs., "Elmore Leonard wouldn't write what he does if Stark hadn't been there before. And Quentin Tarantino wouldn't write what he does without Leonard. . . . Old master that he is, Stark does all of them one better." Los Angeles Times, "Westlake knows precisely how to grab a reader, draw him or her into the story, and then slowly tighten his grip until escape is impossible."- Washington Post Book World, "Parker is a true treasure. . . . The master thief is back, along with Richard Stark."-Marilyn Stasio, New York Times Book Review, If you're looking for crime novels with a lot of punch, try the very, very tough novels featuring Parker. . . . The Hunter , The Outfit , The Mourner , and The Man with the Getaway Face are all beautifully paced, tautly composed, and originally published in the early 1960s., "Glitters with seemingly effortless intricacy, being aimed at one episode-a stunner, the kind of moment in fiction that really does have you leaping from your chair and exclaiming in surprise and glee."-Richard Rayner, Los Angeles Times, on The Hunter, "I wouldn''t care to speculate about what it is in Westlake''s psyche that makes him so good at writing about Parker, much less what it is that makes me like the Parker novels so much. Suffice it to say that Stark/Westlake is the cleanest of all noir novelists, a styleless stylist who gets to the point with stupendous economy, hustling you down the path of plot so briskly that you have to read his books a second time to appreciate the elegance and sober wit with which they are written."--Terry Teachout , Commentary, The UC Press mission, to reprint the 1960s Parker novels of Richard Stark (the late Donald Westlake), is wholly admirable. The books have been out of print for decades, and the fast-paced, hard-boiled thrillers featuring the thief Parker are brilliant., "Parker . . . lumbers through the pages of Richard Stark's noir novels scattering dead bodies like peanut shells. . . . In a complex world [he] makes things simple."-William Grimes, New York Times, "Writing a couple of years ago . . . John Banville reckoned the Parker novels to be ''among the most poised and polished fictions of their time and, in fact, any time.'' That''s high praise from an impeccable source, and Banville is right to single out the technical excellence of these books. The Parkers read with the speed of pulp while unfolding with an almost Nabokovian wit and flair. . . . Original editions of these books, and even later reprints, change hands for scores or hundreds of dollars on the Net, and it's excellent to have them readily available againnot so much masterpieces of the genre, just masterpieces, period."Richard Rayner,Los AngelesTimes, "Richard Stark writes a harsh and frightening story of criminal warfare and vengeance with economy, understatement and a deadly amoral objectivity-a remarkable addition to the list of the shockers that the French call romans noirs."-Anthony Boucher, New York Times Book Review, "Whether early or late, the Parker novels are all superlative literary entertainments."--Terry Teachout, Weekly Standard, "Whatever Stark writes, I read. He's a stylist, a pro, and I thoroughly enjoy his attitude."-Elmore Leonard, "Parker is a true treasure. . . . The master thief is back, along with Richard Stark."Marilyn Stasio, New York Times Book Review, The University of Chicago Press has recently undertaken a campaign to get Parker back in print in affordable and handsome editions, and I dove in. And now I get it., "Parker is refreshingly amoral, a thief who always gets away with the swag."Stephen King, Entertainment Weekly, Writing a couple of years ago . . . John Banville reckoned the Parker novels to be 'among the most poised and polished fictions of their time and, in fact, any time.' That's high praise from an impeccable source, and Banville is right to single out the technical excellence of these books.

And now I get it."--Josef Braun, Vue Weekly, If you're a fan of noir novels and haven't yet read Richard Stark, you may want to give these books a try. Who knows? Parker may just be the son of a bitch you've been searching for., "If you're looking for crime novels with a lot of punch, try the very, very tough novels featuring Parker. . . .

Stark's clever plot structure, moving back and forth in time, is totally engrossing."-- Library Journal, If you''re a fan of noir novels and haven''t yet read Ricahrd Stark, you may want to give these books a try. Who knows? Parker may just be the son of a bitch you''ve been searching for., "Parker is refreshingly amoral, a thief who always gets away with the swag."-Stephen King, Entertainment Weekly, Parker is a brilliant invention. . . . What chiefly distinguishes Westlake, under whatever name, is his passion for process and mechanics. . . . Parker appears to have eliminated everything from his program but machine logic, but this is merely protective coloration. He is a romantic vestige, a free-market anarchist whose independent status is becoming a thing of the past., Elmore Leonard wouldn't write what he does if Stark hadn't been there before.
