5.0 out of 5 stars Absolutely Wonderful, Enjoyable, Entertaining, LOVED IT, 3 Aug 1999
By A Customer
This was the first mystery book that wasn't just about a brutal murderer or sick person. This was a murder, that wasn't a serial killer, not the kind of thing that would give you nightmares. It was just a normal guy's life mixed in with the capture of his ex-girlfriend. I loved every word of the story, and Robert Johnson was an incredibly clever character! I recommend this book to anyone who has half a sense of humor and the need to read a cleverly put together story that feels like it's coming right from the person's mouth!

5.0 out of 5 stars Robert Johnson Is Terrific, 26 Aug 1998
By A Customer
Any author who can create a enchilada eating cat named Robert Johnson captures my interest immediately. I smiled throughout this book and laughed out loud several times. I hope Tres keeps sticking his nose where it doesn't belong for many more books to come.

5.0 out of 5 stars written with verve and confidence, 5 July 1997
By A Customer
Rick Riordan has written his first book, BIG RED TEQUILA, with the verve and confidence of an experienced author with several successful mysteries published to his credit. His short, action-filled sentences easily carry the reader along from one suspenseful chapter to the next without a stumble or loss of interest. He uses familiar words in unfamiliar association. He creates clear pictures of the scene and characters involved. He avoids the usual cliches which become so common-place in many mysteries. There is a definite "newness" about his writing. His Texan use of Spanish is particularly well done and faithfully reflects the cultural ambience of the City of San Antonio. It gives better definition to memorable personalities without dressing them in masquerade costumes. I appreciate his handling of sexual encounters. His short comments like, "back to the satin sheets," give the reader no difficulty in picturing the activity of the characters without a clinical, play-by-play account. Nor do I wish to be a voyuer. His vernacular which may seem a bit profane to some readers like me (past 75 years), is honest and genuine and will be overheard on most every bi-cultural street in the Southwest. Of greatest importance to me, I enjoyed reading the book. Isn't that its purpose?

1.0 out of 5 stars A yuppie's cliched view of the Alamo City
It's not so much that Rick Riordan gets so much terribly wrong about San Antonio and it's people. It's that he does it in such a cliched and stereotyped manner. Read more
