Strange for me with a Ray Bradbury novel in that I found this a slow burn, it took a bit of reading to get into it. Thankfully for me I persevered with it, its Ray Bradbury after all, he's my favourite author for a good reason, a phenomenal imagination. Drawing me into the milieu inhabited by the characters and gripped by the page turner storyline to the very end. I can't abide 'Reviews" that give a blow by blow account such that there's no point in reading the book. So I won't bother with that, instead I suggest reading it, experience every nuance for yourself. This is a detective story murder mystery set in Hollywood.

Review of 'A graveyard for lunatics' on 'Goodreads'

5 stars

A graveyard I'd like to visit Fantastic read by Ray Bradbury. Of course I am biased; I love everything I've read by him. This story takes the reader into the innards of a film studio where long time ago one of the leaders of that industry died. At least, everyone knows he did. But did he? More and more details about this man come to life after death.
