Sneak Peak

Jim Mullaney is working on his next Crag Banyon mystery.  He's posted the blurb on his forum and Facebook:
Bum Luck (A Crag Banyon Mystery) cover blurb:

BANYON INVESTIGATIONS, INC. CASES CRACKED. REASONABLE RATES.

When a desperate leprechaun needs to locate his lost pot of gold, there's only one P.I. in town dogged and sober enough to take the case. Unfortunately, his first choice is in Bimini dodging an IRS audit, so he calls on Crag Banyon instead.

That's just the start of a string of increasingly lousy luck that hounds Banyon from one emerald end of his latest crummy job to the other, where it turns out that a trip over the rainbow isn't the fun-and-booze-filled romp that all the brochures claim. Banyon finds that the whole leprechaun world is upside-down, while at the same time our own world is suffering through a mealtime catastrophe that's threatening side dishes from here to Thanksgiving and beyond.

Toss in a femme fatale more fatale than usual, along with a sexy dame reporter who's so untrustworthy even her curves are crooked, and Banyon finds that he's up to his pretty little eyeballs in more trouble than one plucky, partially plastered P.I can handle. Not without doubling his rates and/or tripling his booze consumption.

UNLUCKIEST P.I. IN THE GREATER METROPOLITAN YELLOW PAGES.

Congratulations, James Mullaney

I've been a fan of Jim's writing every since he took over ghosting The Destroyer series.  After twenty six Destroyers, and contributions to The Assassins Handbook 2, Jim began writing and self publishing not one but two series: The Red Menace and The Crag Banyon Mysteries.

The Private Eye Writers of America have just announced the nominees for their 2013 Shamus Awards and Jim's second Banyon, Devil May Care, has been nominated in the Best Indie P.I. Novel category.  It's an honor just to be nominated (but here's hoping Jim wins).

"Crag Banyon is a two-fisted P.I. with a heart of gold and a liver of stainless steel."

Exploitation Retrospect

Exploitation Retrospect is calling for contributions to a new section -- Assignment: Action! -- that will be in their Fall 2013 issue. 
Assignment: Action! will feature
reviews of men's adventure novels of the 70s/80s and beyond, action cinema, remembrances of memorable action series and characters and so on. If you dig Remo Williams, The Chameleon, The Penetrator, ABLE Team, The Executioner and their ilk we are definitely seeking contributions from you!
This is a chance for Destroyer fans to post remembrances of  the series, its authors and the various ghost writers, how you were turned on to the Destroyer,  hopes for the direction the series has taken, social issues raised, etc.  If they get enough, maybe it will turn into an all-Destroyer retrospective.
