Thats amazing - there I was reading "Joey's Case" by K.C.
Constantine
and thinking about posting something along the lines of "an
American
great who is neglegted?" or "is this one of the best series
reads
around?" and this pops up from Mario Taboada as a reading
suggestion:
>*K.C. Constantine: "Joey's Case" (for example - I pick
this one because
>it it particularly hardboiled and even more spectacular
than his other
>novels)
..and then this pops up as well...
>Mario Taboada (whom some absurd internet character keeps
accusing, in
>rather crude terms, of really being K.C. Constantine - I
hope this
>person is not in this list!)
..because I was also going to post a question along the lines
of who is
K.C Constantine? - the name being a pseudonym.
so I vote for K.C. as well as Jon Jackson's excellent Fang
Mulhiesen
books.
Another great read.
Anybody intersted in Jerome Chayrn's Issac Siddel books - say
"Blue
Eyes" or "The Good Policeman"? Now there is another truely
great series
that seems to be neglegted these days. Great and truely
original.
Think of the discussion - compare and contrast Mario Balzic and
Issac
Sidel - now that would be interesting.
