Quote: harleykwin said: Just finished Flood and Dead and Gone both by Andrew Vachss. Both are gritty, excellent books - I'm now hooked on his Burke series of novels. Also just ordered Shella on Amazon as I can't find it in B&N nor any of the smaller book shops in the city.
He was one of the authors recommended in rex's "rec me an author" thread and I am so glad to have picked up his books...
Yay!
Just finished Down Here too. Vachss fuckin' rocks - can't believe I didn't pick his books up til now...
Shella was the first book of his that I read. After that, I scooped up everything he wrote. Flood and Strega are my favorite Burke novels, but I love all his stuff. He has two short story collections (I forget their titles) that have stories featuring a character named Cross. Also great, and Dark Horse released at least one limited series based on the character. If you can find it at your local comics dealer, check out Another Chance To Get It Right - a book he did to raise money for various child protection charities.

MisterJLA: RACKS so hard, he called Jim Rome "Chris Everett." In Him, all porn is possible. He is far above mentions in so-called "blogs." RACK him, lest ye be lost!
