"I have in the works the collected pulp detective fiction of
Leigh
Brackett, possibly to include her superb hard-boiled novel No
Good from
a Corpse, only reprinted once since it's 1944 original
appearance. The
Introduction will be a memoir of Brackett by Ray Bradbury,
and it will
have an Afterword by Michael Connelly. Bracket is the best
female
hard-boiled writer of all time, and it's a shame her work has
been
unavailable for so long, but this volume will remedy that
situation.
The print run will be 1,000 copies, price not set, and may
include some
special copies signed by Bradbury and Connelly."
