  • [A] hard, critical look at all the fiction works written by Grisham....The author has really studied the man Grisham before embarking upon this project and the same is reflected in the book. The painstaking job the author has done editing, researching and collecting material is to be appreciated and this book is a must resource guide to the fans of John Grisham....Mary Beth Pringle has done a grand job.

Description: John Grisham is one of the most prolific and beloved mystery writers today, still reaching the top of the bestseller lists with books like The Testament (1999) and King of Torts (2003). In recent times, he has also experimented with different genres, such as A Painted House (2001), a semi-autobiographical work, and Skipping Christmas (2001), a holiday narrative. This volume follows up the critical analysis of Grisham's work in John Grisham: A Critical Companion, examining his writing from 1997 to the present.
