Críticas:
"It likely is best suited for public libraries with strong reader interest in mystery/detective fiction. Summing Up: Recommended. General readers." - Choice "American academic Professor Mitzi Brunsdale does a magnificent job of illustrating how mystery fiction expanded from short story to novel to film, television and comic books and produced iconic hero figures from Holmes to Batman. ... The research for this book is exhaustive and the background to these iconic characters quite fascinating (I learned an awful lot about G. K. Chesterton for one) and the bibliographies for each of the 24 linked essays are a marvellous reference source in themselves. ... In short, this is a valuable work and will be an invaluable reference source for future generations of students of the genre ..." - Getting Away With Murder "The selection of entries from all types of crime and mystery media make this an intriguing work that will be useful for literary and cinematic research collections. Recommended for larger public libraries, crime collections, and academic libraries." - Booklist "As one of the few titles available organized by character with in-depth character analysis and some literary criticism, this is a nice addition to any reference collection supporting serious mystery, suspense, and detective fans at the college and high school levels. Recommended." - Library Journal
