The earliest stories, not surprisingly, have a somewhat generic '30s detective vibe, but the writing gradually becomes more assured and more distinctly Ballardian. They're all thoroughly enjoyable, fast-paced and often funny, even the ones in which Ballard hadn't quite found his voice; my personal favorites are "A Little Different" and "Scars of Murder." There's also biographical material on the author and a fascinating essay entitled "Writing for the Pulps," penned by Ballard near the close of his long career.
