4.0 out of 5 stars His writing is like good wine (really!) 5 Jan 2001
By Rowan W. Smith - Published on Amazon.com
Format:Paperback
Beautifully structured, ages well, satisfying on its own yet leaves you with a desire to sample more. The Boss in the Wall, completed by his ex-wife and partner, Grania Davis, contains many of the best qualities of Davidson's writing. It is filled with wonderful bits of knowledge you won't find collected anywhere else; each piece adds to the enjoyment of the story; the reader walks a few pages listening to a terrific story-teller and then - BANG - she is in the middle of an involving tale without being entirely sure how she got there. Read - read - read.
5.0 out of 5 stars One of the best books i've ever read 15 May 2012
By David Brown - Published on Amazon.com
Format:Paperback|Amazon Verified Purchase
First. Please do not let the cover of this book to describe it. It does not. Yes there is a house and yes there are House Devils, but they are nothing like the cover. As well the cover depicts yet another horror story. This is not a horror story, not completely. The story is very avram davidson who is primarily a fantastic/science fiction writer. Yet this novella spans so many genres. The writing is vivid, but yet the story itself has a not quite seen, other worldly feel to it. Yet the things that generate this atmosphere are very real, relatable, almost historical. At times its like an anthropological search for the boss in the wall. And yet(I keep saying yet...)its not at all dispassionate/scholarly. Whatever you have to pay to get a copy of this book I very much suggest you do.
