How nerdy is it that I want to read this?
I hope there are lots of readers like Gerard who want to read the book :-) and that there will be good synergy with the McBain reissues by amazon's Thomas & Mercer imprint.
I would hope so as well. I just a did a weed list for my library because we are out of room in our Mystery section. I was both sad and happy to see that there were several 87th Precinct novels on the list. Sad because they are great books. Happy because I get first crack at buying them.
Erin asked to use a few of my quotes in the McBain/Hunter book and afterward downloaded me the finished manuscript. She's done an excellent job--extremely well-researched and also extremely readable. She and Elizabeth should be proud.
I put the book on order.
