I sought out this series back in the '80s, when I was amassing books by Black Mask writers, but when I finally got around to reading it (last year) I found I was missing Mexican Slay Ride. So a few weeks ago, when Emperor Emeritus of the Universe Art Scott was heading for the Los Angeles Paperback Show, I asked him to be on the lookout for it. Instead, he promptly sent me the primo copy shown below, from own private archives. Thanks, Emp!
I have them all except Slay Ride and Spy Catchers. Way to go completing the series.
ReplyDeleteAll the credit goes to the EEOTU. If you haven't read yours, you oughta.
ReplyDeleteGod, I love everything about that "Hot Dam" cover. If is just about the perfect book cover that I would have died for when I was about 13 years old.
ReplyDeleteThat cover is even better in person, Sam. That one detail is much clearer.
ReplyDeleteA great series that ended because an editor didn't like the authors nom de plume
