Jules Brenner has a life-long habit of turning the things he loves to do into his main occupation. As a reader since his pre-teen years, he's narrowed his field of primary interest down to the mystery novel, which includes suspense, crime, detectives, spies and other dramatic and usually well-structured material within that genre. Now, he receives a slew of books directly from publishers for the purpose of reviewing them on his website, Critical Mystery Tour and on About.com. His reviews have also been published in Crime Scene Magazine, 9ine Magazine and several local newspapers in the Los Angeles area.Quotes from his reviews appear around the web and on authors' home pages. He has received a number of email commendations from authors whose books he has reviewed, sometimes referring to Jules' review as the best they have read. His list of plaudits are on the site.
