Mrs D L C Gowland
There are many incredible stories in this biography and all are dealt with admirable objectivity and lack of judgement. Ellroy wrote in a poem that he wanted to be loved fiercely, ferociously and with dedication Powell has shown the utmost dedication to the task producing a book which - like the best of Ellroy's books - is visceral, exciting and lingers in the mind long after you've finished the final page. Five stars
Powell allows the stories to stand for themselves, painting a rich portrait of Ellroy as a difficult but fascinating man for whom age has dulled neither his fire or his senses.
