"For fans of Spillane's work, you will not be disappointed as it is true to the quality of his early works." --City of Films
"The book itself is tremendous fun with every bit of the adrenaline rush that I expect from a Hammer book, and really captures the spirit of the original Spillane novels in a way that most series-continuation pastiches could never hope to." --Comic Book Resources
"The combined voice of Spillane and Collins makes for a great storyteller." --Slacker Heroes
"a quick-to-read mystery full of fistfights and cheesy wisecracks." --Chamber Four
"An efficient, workmanlike thriller, that checks in at 9, gets out at 5 and gets the job done. And it's hard to argue with that." --The Playlist
"The tale is vintage Spillane, a top-notch entry in the long-running Hammer series." --Rap Sheet
"The story more than justifies it s published resurrection, with my only complaint being that I wanted more. Collins is more sure of the material than anyone who could have taken up the pen and dared to collaborate with a legend like Spillane. At 241 pages, it s a breeze to read and a real joy to experience Hammer growl out lines Clint Eastwood would call tough. I for one am thrilled that Collins took the time to bring us some more Mike Hammer." --Daily Rotation

Mickey Spillane is the legendary crime writer credited with igniting the explosion of paperback publishing after World War II as a result of the unprecedented success of his Mike Hammer novels. Spillane's novels sold tens of millions of copies - I, The Jury went through more than 60 paperback printings in 1947 alone. In 1995, he was named a Grand Master by the Mystery Writers of America. Before his death at the age of 88 in 2006, Spillane chose long-time friend Max Allan Collins to complete his unfinished work and act as his literary executor.
