Rucka's SMOKER is the latest in his Atticus Kodiac bodyguard
series. Well written and suspenseful with realistic
characters. But not quite as good as the previous two, KEEPER
and FINDER.
I believe we read and commented on the stories in the
Hard Boiled Anthology a couple years ago. My recollection:
uneven.
Interested in what you think of the non-Helm
Hamilton.
