Breakout
ByPublisher Description
With Parker locked up and about to be unmasked,
follows his Houdini-like escape from prison with a team of convicts. But when a new heist and new dangers—con artists, snitches, busybodies, eccentrics, and cops—loom among the dark alleys and old stone buildings of the big city to which they've fled, Parker soon learns that not all prisons have bars.
"Fiercely distracting. . . . Westlake is an expert plotter; and while Parker is a blunt instrument of a human being depicted in rudimentary short grunts of sentences, his take on other characters reveals a writer of great humor and human understanding." —John Hodgman
"Stark . . . applies his great wit and dexterous mental skills to a series of . . . ingenious exits and entrances in (what else?)
. . . . Jampacked. . . . He writes with ruthless efficiency." —Marilyn Stasio,
"Stark invites readers to project themselves onto the always-assured Parker, making him a frighteningly easy sociopath to root for. And watching knowledgeable bad guys ply their shadowy trade under pressure is always fun. An immensely pleasurable entry in the Parker series. . . . Simply put,
is great escapist fiction." —

“With only three volumes left in the series, the gap in between reading has grown wider as I don't really want the series to end, and it's still probably too soon to start a reread. That all being said, Breakout really felt like an early Parker novel in the fast pace and with the incredibly interesting additions to the cast.”
