    Amazon.ca delivered the latest 3, which I'd pre-ordered, in late July. I reread them almost immediately and greatly enjoyed them. I thought
    "Slayground" was great, but not that outstanding in the context of this series.

    I thought I noticed a sort of continuity problem in "Plunder Squad". Parker seems to get from a bedroom community outside of Pittsburgh to an address in Philadelphia in 35 minutes. Did I misread this?
