I have several novels by Ed Lee and a couple by Wrath James White but I've never heard of Nate Southard, thanks for the tip.

You're welcome. It's a great operation that picked up a lot of authors that the end of Leisure left stranded.

Yeah, I'm familiar with the whole Leisure to Deadite move. A lot of great writers got screwed by Leisure. I just wish I could get the Deadite books in stores.

I just finished Joe R. Lansdale's The Nightrunners and I can say that I am a fan. It was splatterpunk goodness at its best. The best part was Brian's dream about The God of the Razor. It definitely had its gory parts but even if you're not a fan of gore, his descriptive writing and the fact that he doesn't waste any time moving the story along makes this worth the time.

Finished Tequila's Sunrise by Brian Keene. A great little fable that contains a lot of his mythos. Fans of his books will really like this. The short stories in it aren't bad either but not as good as the main story.

Just started reading The Neighborhood by Kelli Owen

I've switched over to fantasy at the moment, Patrick Rothfuss's The Name of the Wind. So far it has been everything I've been told it was. His writing is poetic and the story is reeling me in.

Been reading some of the stories I hadn't gotten around to yet in The Book of Cthulhu.

That's always a struggle in the small press world. Barnes and Noble doesn't stock POD books.
