WHAT I’M READING NOW: MORTAL LOCK by Andrew Vachss
I love his work, but his short stories are probably his weakest form. Still, the first story in the book knocked it out of the park, so we’ll see how it goes.
WHAT I’M READING NOW: JOYLAND by Stephen King
I love Hard Case Crime, and I love Stephen King (although I didn’t care for THE COLORADO KID). So far, their second outing together is much better.
WHAT I’M READING NOW: PORTRAIT OF A KILLER by Patricia Cornwell
The real identity of Jack the Ripper? All right, I’ll bite, although this was more the kind of book that my mother would have read, rather than me.
WHAT I’M READING NOW: CATCH ME IF YOU CAN by Frank W. Abagnale (and Stan Redding)
I loved the movie, and I love books about cons. Hell, who doesn’t? (Another favorite of mine, by the way, is MATCHSTICK MEN.) Now it’s time to be exposed to Abagnale’s charm first hand-ish (since it is through Redding’s filter,…

WHAT I’M READING NOW: THE RESTLESS DEAD by Hugh B. Cave
Cave is one of the classic pulpsters, and reading his work is always fun. However, I’m not much of a fan of his voodoo stuff. I don’t know why. It just doesn’t strike me as interesting, even though he lived…
WHAT I’M READING NOW: BITE by Richard Laymon
You can’t go wrong with Laymon. It’s impossible. The sad thing is, since he’s dead, there is a finite number of novels by him. I’ve been spreading them out, although it’s pretty hard to resist. I read the first chapter…
WHAT I’M READING NOW: SILKEN PREY by John Sandford
Ah, a new Prey book. I’ve been a huge fan of this series for quite some time. I even got to meet Sandford a couple of times. I don’t think I’ve ever been stuck with a Lucas Davenport book I…
