Now Available!

Haffner Press Murder Draws a Crowd: The Fredric Brown Mystery Library, Volume One: Work has been underway for nearly four years assembling the first two volumes of THE FREDRIC BROWN MYSTERY LIBRARY. Now is your chance to get in on the ground floor of what is hoped to be the definitive collection of Fredric Brown sans his science fiction works. Assembled in chronological order of publication, this set will contain all the short fiction (of all genres: mystery, horror, noir, western, detection, etc.) and all of Brown’s novels (again, excepting his sf works). You’ll be able to enjoy Fredric Brown at his longer lengths from The Fabulous Clipjoint and Night of the Jabberwock to The Lenient Beast and Mrs. Murphy’s Underpants.

Definitely worth your time!

Nice. But $40 is beyond what I'm willing to spend.

I have three volumes of Dennis McMillan's Fredric Brown series of complete stories from the late 80s. They are great.

The Fabulous Clipjoint is one of my favorite books, as is The Night of the Jabberwock. I personally want to be a member of the Vorpal Blades...

This is a long time coming, I pre-ordered it at least two and a half years ago, so I'll be glad when it comes in November. Note that it's not going to be sold on Amazon, except through the Marketplace, later, after all current orders have shipped.

Rick Robinson said...

Oh, and Jeff, it's well over 700 pages, so it's a lot for the money.

Rick Robinson said...

Oops, that's well over 600 pages...

Jeff Meyerson said...

I see Amazon is selling it for $45.

You can still preorder the book directly from Haffner Press for $40. I believe the total page count is 744,according to the newsletter.
