WHAT I’M READING NOW: WEST OF NOWHERE by Alan LeMay

I love LeMay’s work, in particular THE SEARCHERS. However, I was under the impression that this is a short story collection of westerns. I just read the forward, however, and it would seem that despite the cowboy on the cover

WHAT I’M READING NOW: BORROWED FLESH by Sephera Giron, URBAN RENEWAL by Andrew Vachss and MR. MERCEDES by Stephen King

What can I say about King that hasn’t already been said? As for URBAN RENEWAL, how did this one get by me? It was published, and I didn’t even notice. I’m not a big fan of Cross, though, so I’m

WHAT I’M READING NOW: FEARS UNNAMED by Tim Lebbon

I can’t say I’m a huge fan of Lebbon, since I haven’t read much of his work, but what I have read, I fuckin’ love. This one is a quartet of novellas, so I’m sure I’ll enjoy the hell out

WHAT I’M READING NOW: DEEP IN THE DARKNESS by Michael Laimo

I love Laimo’s short fiction. I’ve only read one of his novels, ATMOSPHERE, which I didn’t dig too much. Hopefully this will be better.

I haven’t read much of Lee’s longer work, just his short fiction. I’ve read MONSTROSITY and CITY INFERNAL, the latter of which is the first in his Hell series. IA is the second, and it looks pretty cool. I have

WHAT I’M READING NOW: EXPANDED UNIVERSE by Robert A. Heinlein

From what I can tell, this looks like a collection of opinions-column-ish pieces from Heinlein. Nothing would please me more. I’ve never read non-fiction from him, and considering how ahead of his time he was with many of his views,

WHAT I’M READING NOW: THE FARROWING by Jesse Wheeler

Of all the writers I’ve found through StrangeHouse, Jesse Wheeler is my favorite. He’s a relentless bastard, and he’s capable of making someone like me gag with his words. DINNER AT THE VOMITROPOLIS is a transgressive masterpiece. THE FARROWING sounds

WHAT I’M READING NOW: FOR US, THE LIVING by Robert A. Heinlein

This is his very first novel, but the interesting thing is, it was never published during his lifetime. I’m very fascinated with this because I want to know why it never made it into print back then, considering how amazing
