Hi. Coincidentally, I'm reading "Bullets" by him right now. I
wouldn't call it hard-boiled, because there's a strong
current of humor, almost farce, running through it.
Definitely dark, though, so it fits in with noir, but I
wouldn't compare him to Leonard. Leonard takes himself far
more seriously.
I met Steve at B'con last year, shared a shuttle to the
airport with him, and a beer at the airport, and he gave me a
copy of "Boost", which I enjoyed. He's a funny guy. His books
reflect his personality, I think.
