DescriptionsEdit Descriptions

Chandler's greatest creation, Philip Marlowe, was introduced in The Big Sleep. The 8 books here, with the omnibuses, are those written with him as hero. Some of Chandler's earlier stories were re-published with Marlowe's name substituted for the original private eye but are not considered as part of this series. (English, Unclassified)
