The book with which Willeford's first novel was paired with
was something by Talbot Mundy - exotic thirties' style pulp
adventure. It's an eccentric choice, but I don't think it was
premeditated.

Miker's suggestions for coming themes are good, but I can see
what kind of heated discussions they could lead us to. I'm
not sure if that's a good thing. But I'd like to see some
good discussion on pre-Daly/Hammett hardboiled stuff. It's
just that everything's not handy, for example Gordon Young's
Everhard stories.
