WHAT I’M READING NOW: WHAT MAKES YOU DIE by Tom Piccirilli

The fact that I have this book is good news.  A while ago, Jason Sizemore (the chief at Apex, who published this book) sent us customers a message saying that Piccirilli wasn’t feeling up to signing the books due to

I haven’t read a lot of Krall’s work, but I thoroughly enjoyed SQUID PULP BLUES, which was the second bizarro book I’d ever read (at least, the second that was MARKETED as bizarro).  This one looks like a good mixture
