The Word Is Murder by Anthony HorowitzMy rating: 2 of 5 stars
I really enjoyed Magpie Murders Anthony Horowitz's first murder mystery novel. However in The World is Murder he has inserted himself as the narrator. Written in the first person this is part whodunit part documentary on Anthony Horowitz and I don't think it works. All the chatty information on how he writes and what projects he has worked on kill any suspense in the mystery story and make the final confrontation between the murderer and Anthony a laughable cliche. Please Anthony you write great books don't try to play the main character as well.
