My Opinion of Policemen's Union

I didn't care that much for this book. Partly, I think it was the details and the unfamiliar terminology that distracted me from the story's flow. Mostly, however, I think it was because I felt apathetic towards most of the characters, Landsman in particular. I thought he was rather a cliché character-an alcoholic policeman who's down on his luck and has very little to live for besides his job. Since I didn't have any strong feelings for the characters, I could have put the book down at any point and not felt the need to pick it up and continue reading.
