"Lliteras' genius is wide-ranging. He is not only a unique stylist, but a great storyteller as well."

– New Age Retailer

"Kept me interested till the end . . . I would read a long section of the book, and then put it down for a while. However, it was not before the siren call of curiosity was overwhelming, and I picked it up again for another reading session. It is not a deep mystery, but it is a worthy read." (Five Star Review)

"[A] fine thriller set in the heart of . . . book publishing."

– Don Crinklaw, Booklist (ALA)

"Deftly crafted with the kind of narrative driven storytelling style that holds the reader's rapt attention from beginning to cliff-hanger ending, Death Takes a Byline is an extraordinarily entertaining and thought-provoking read that is especially and unreservedly recommended for personal reading lists and community library Contemporary General Fiction collections."

– Midwest Book Review (MBR)

(5-Star Review) "This is yet another work by D.S. Lliteras that provokes a stringent ‘YES!’ from the reader. He sees the world as few are able and shares the meaning of feeling with us. Quite simply, this is a brilliant little novel – one that makes us eager for the next one!"

– Grady Harp, top book reviewer

"Death Takes a Byline plays it for action and arch humor . . . Lliteras is a terrific writer, but he is also a master ironist."

– Bill Ruehlmann, The Virginian-Pilot

“Death Takes a Bylinegrabs the reader's attention immediately and you cannot stop reading. I love the way that Lliteras breaks the story down and allows each main person in the story their own section to tell their point of view. And readers are going to be shocked at the craziness of some of the characters . . . but that will not stop you from reading and rooting for Larry!!!”

– Missi M., Cozy Mystery Book Reviews

“I definitely like his [Lliteras'] writing style. His books really make me think. He's definitely an author worth checking out!”
