RARA-AVIS: Leigh Brackett

I recently picked up Leigh Brackett's "No Good From a Corpse" - after looking very, very forward to reading it after enjoying her short crime stories - and stopped reading before chapter five, very disappointed. It just didn't grab me or make any huge impression. I don't understand the comparison to Chandler's work the book recieved. It wasn't even in the same league. Has anybody else read the book and have an opposite opinion? I really hated to stop because, as I said, I like Brackett's short stories. Oh, well - it happens. --Brian
