Before I launch into the full blown play-by-play of last nights taco truck crawl, Patti Abbott has tagged me to post about a novel that might have been forgotten over the years. The last time I was asked to do something like this, I had to pick Douglas E. Winter’s RUN, one of my favorite novels of all time. I just can’t recommend this book highly enough. A bad guy’s bad day goes from bad to worse in this fiercely original and addictive neo-noir novel about gun running, gang warfare and crooked politics. Fairly recent (2000) and not exactly forgotten, but I’m always amazed by how many people managed to miss this one. |
