Pimpage: An Occasional Feature in Which I call Attention to Books of Interest

Amazon.com: Never Come Back eBook: David Bell: Kindle Store: Elizabeth Hampton is consumed by grief when her mother dies unexpectedly. Leslie Hampton cared for Elizabeth’s troubled brother Ronnie’s special needs, assuming Elizabeth would take him in when the time came. But Leslie’s sudden death propels Elizabeth into a world of danger and double lives that undoes everything she thought she knew.... 

When police discover that Leslie was strangled, they immediately suspect that one of Ronnie’s outbursts took a tragic turn. Elizabeth can’t believe that her brother is capable of murder, but who else could have had a motive to kill their quiet, retired mother? 

More questions arise when a stranger is named in Leslie’s will: a woman also named Elizabeth. As the family’s secrets unravel, a man from Leslie’s past who claims to have all the answers shows up, but those answers might put Elizabeth and those she loves the most in mortal danger.

Amazon.com: Fight Card: Front Page Palooka eBook: Jack Tunney, Anthony Venutolo, Paul Bishop: Kindle Store: Newark, New Jersey, 1954 

Years of fight halls and newsrooms have East Coast sportswriter Nick Moretti looking for a change. When a sloppy hustle goes bad, and Nick takes a bullet in the shoulder, it’s time to go west. Hired by Pinnacle Pictures to write a boxing movie about troubled heavyweight champ Jericho ‘Rattlesnake’ McNeal, Nick joins forces with sexy public relations gal, Dillian Dawson, for a cross-country tour to give an everyman boxer an unlikely shot at the world title – what could go wrong? 

From the crackling neon of Hollywood and Sin City, through the steamy Delta, and on to Chi-Town, the glitzy dream becomes a noir nightmare, and newshound Nick Moretti is about to commit a reporter’s greatest sin – becoming a Front Page Palooka ...

Forgotten Books: Hell's Cartographers -- Harry Harrison & Brian W. Aldiss, Editors

I'm the target audience for this book, which contains autobiographical essays by the SF writers I grew up reading: Robert Silverberg, Damon Knight, Fredrik Pohl, Alfred Bester, Brian W. Aldiss, and Harry Harrison.  Aside from the personal stuff about their lives, the authors also give us some wonderful insights into the history of SF as they experienced it.  Not only that, there's a section at the end called "How We Work" that gives each of the writers a chance to describe his working methods.  For me, that section alone is worth the price of the book.

The book, by the way, was published in 1975, and when you read the essay by Robert Silverberg and marvel at his productivity and awards and marvel at the wonderful books he wrote, just think of this: He's continued to produce fine work for all the years since then.  And then think about this: He doesn't even mention that he was writing two books a month for the soft porn market during some of the time he talks about.  He didn't come out about that until a good many years later.

For someone of my age who loved SF as a youngster, this book is fascinating reading.  Highly recommended.

Update:  Todd Mason has some excellent comments on this book here.

But one of the Girls—Joanne Claramotta, pregnant with her first child—is acting less than festive. It could be hormones. Or it could be Diane Jenkins, the young knockout her husband, Michael, hired as his new deli assistant.

Calming Joanne’s nerves proves impossible when Maggie finds Michael unconscious on his deli floor—and with Diane next to him, strangled to death with her apron strings. Then Maggie discovers something even more disturbing.

Amazon.com: Down the Hatch: One Man's One Year Odyssey Through Classic Cocktail Recipes and Lore eBook: Vince Keenan: Kindle Store The acclaimed essays featured in Slate and USAToday.com collected for the first time 

The product of a teetotaling home, Vince Keenan didn’t have his first serious drink until he was in his thirties. But when he fell, he fell hard. And started writing about it. The result is a love letter to libations and a celebration of the joys of a good barroom. 

In bright and entertaining style, Keenan chronicles a year’s worth of cocktails. Each week brings a new beverage, prepared at home in a modestly stocked bar. He makes mistakes, finds concoctions he doesn’t care for, perfects his technique. Above all, he keeps experimenting. 

While telling the story of how discovering cocktails broadened his world, Keenan also delves into the stories behind each drink, introducing a host of characters from bartenders past and present to a lazy lightweight boxer, a two-fisted screenwriter, and a suicidal Olympic swordsman. 

Written with passion and curiosity, Down the Hatch is a book for the cocktail enthusiast and amateur alike.

5 Reasons the Worst Superhero Movie Ever Isn't That Bad 

Frontlist Feature: State Vs. Lassiter by Paul Levine

Top Suspense Group: Frontlist Feature: State Vs. Lassiter by Paul Levine

Overlooked Films: The Zombies of Mora Tau

For some reason, maybe the current zombie craze, I was thinking about this movie the other day.  I knew how bad it was when I saw it in the theater back in the late '50s, but then nearly all the movies like this were bad back in those days.  If you have one little theater in town, though, and if you're a teenager, you go to the movie on the weekend, no matter what.  So I wound up seeing many, many bad movies of this sort. 

The plot is simple.  There's a sunken ship with treasure aboard.  A group tries to salvage it, and they discover that the ship is cursed and that a zombie crew guards the treasure.  Undersea zombies?  Wasn't that in a Pirates of the Caribbean movie?  Maybe it was a tip of the hat to this one.  

You should watch the trailer if you haven't already seen it.  That way you'll get an idea of the quality of the whole thing.  Some of the actors did a lot of B-movies and TV, but their names are pretty much unknown now.  Ray "Crash" Corrigan is in it, way down on the cast list.  If this one wasn't on MSTK, it should've been, but I still have a soft spot for it.  

Aside: Nostalgia is a terrible thing. Let me tell you one of the things I remember most clearly about going to these movies.  It's the sound of plastic earpieces clicking as every girl in the theater who wore glasses took them off and put them away at the end of the movie before the house lights went up.

The Return of the Cap'n

Cap'n Bob is back in the blogging game.  Take a look at The Cap'n's Blog.

Impossible Monsters -- Kasey Lansdale, Editor

Sure, Kasey Lansdale has a great new CD out (Restless), but she's also carving out her own place in the Lansdale publishing empire.  She writes short stories, as you might know already, and now she has an anthology to her credit.  It's a good one, too.  The title gives you the theme.  These are monsters you haven't seen before, or, if you have, they've been "stepped up a notch," as the editor puts it.

Neal Barrett, Jr., is as hilarious and inventive as ever with "Bloaters," which is sort of vampires in reverse.  David Schow's "Blue Amber" begins with a human skin hanging on a fence.  The Border Patrol has never before dealt with aliens like the ones in this story. Neil Gaiman's "Click-Clack the Rattlebag" is a short and expert chiller. Joe Lansdale's "The Case of the Angry Traveler" is in the classical adventurer's tale vein, with the kind of underground scenes I can't resist.  Selena Rosen's "Nathan" is as blood-spattered a tale as anybody could ask for.  There are a lot more stories here, by Big Names, that I haven't gotten to yet, but you can bet I will.  This is a fine anthology, and a great start for another Lansdale's literary journey.  Check it out.
