<p/><br></br><p><b> Book Synopsis </b></p></br></br><p>Over the many years that Inspector Brant has been bringing his own patented brand of policing to the streets of southeast London, the brilliant but tough cop has made a few enemies. So when a crazed gunman, hired by persons unknown, pumps a magazine full of bullets into Brant in a local pub, leaving him in grasping at life (but ornery as ever), his colleagues on the squad are left wondering how to react. <p/>Brant's old partner Inspector Roberts, the man who may know him best, finds himself wondering why someone didn't shoot the hateful detective years ago. In Ken Bruen's <i>Ammunition</i>, they're all about to find out that the answer is quite simple: if you come after Brant you'd damn well better kill him the first time--because if you don't, you won't want to stick around to find out what happens next.</p><p/><br></br><p><b> Review Quotes </b></p></br></br><br><p>"It's always a delight to discover a writer with an utterly distinctive voice...the words that best describe him, besides original, are outrageous and hilarious." --<i>Washington Post</i> <p/>"Bruen's furious hard-boiled prose, chopped down to its trademark essence, never fails to astonish." --<i>Publishers Weekly (starred review)</i> <p/>"Bruen's style is clipped, caustic, heartbreaking and often hilarious." --<i>Cleveland Plain Dealer</i> <p/>"Irish writer Ken Bruen does the noir thing well. His men are tough, his prose is lean, and there's not a single drop or morsel of sentimentality to be found therein." --<i>Entertainment Weekly</i> <p/>"A soul-mate of Jim Thompson's, or maybe James M. Cain's." --<i>Irish Times</i></p><br><p/><br></br><p><b> About the Author </b></p></br></br><b>Ken Bruen</b> has been a finalist for the Edgar and Anthony Awards, and has won a Macavity Award, a Barry Award, and two Shamus Awards for the Jack Taylor series.
