Rating: - Ordinary
I'm sorry to say I really didn't enjoy The Brass Verdict all that much. That's what happens when you write a book a year. It gets to be a hollow exercise. You can read this book really fast because you will not miss much in terms of writing, psychology and wit. I liked the Lincoln Lawyer so I am surprised that the second in the series is so ordinary.

Rating: - The Final Approach
Michael Connelly has effectively combined characters from two of his books to make an extraordinarily pleasurable book. From The Lincoln Lawyer he uses the main character, attorney Michael Haller. From the Bosch series (17 books) he takes the irascible Harry Bosch, premier detective on the LAPD force. Combining these wonderfully colorful characters into a single plot has been a joyous read.

Rating: - The Brass Verdict
As usual, Michael Conneley offered a great read. His characters are well developed, and allow the reader to feel that the character is known to her or him. The plot was engaging, and kept me reading until the end. I am fairly new to Mr. Conneley's work, having read the Lincoln Lawyer earlier this year, and will now seek out other books written by this author.

Rating: - Where's Harry?
The Brass Verdict was well written, as all of Connelly's novels are, in my opinion, but I felt a little deceived by the description of the book as a "Mickey Haller/Harry Bosch" vehicle. To me, Bosch's presence was so negligible that he might as well not have been written in at all. If you like the Mickey Haller character, you'll probably love the book. However, if you like Harry Bosch as much as I do, then I think you'll be as disappointed with this book as I was.
