ReviewsPRAISE FOR MICKEY SPILLANE "Mike Hammer is an icon of our culture." - The New York Times "A superb writer. Spillane is one of the century's bestselling authors." - The Plain Dealer (Cleveland) PRAISE FOR MAX ALLAN COLLINS "Max Allan Collins is the closest thing we have to a 21st century Mickaey Spillane." - ThisWeek (Ohio) "Collins' witty, hardboiled prose would make Raymond Chandler proud." - Entertainment Weekly, "Collins, a first-rate storyteller who started his own career with paperback originals, adds some narrative finesse to what he calls the "Hammerverse" but remains true to Spillane's essence. This volume also includes five previously unpublished Hammer stories, adding extra pizzazz to what is a fitting celebration of a genre giant." -Booklist "[Collins] has no problem serving up Hammer the same way Spillane did, with plenty of mayhem, violence, and sex, dished out in straight-ahead, no-frills prose, right on target, so direct, with no room for sissy stuff like digressions, detours, or doubts. Hammer is a shark that needs to keep swimming to survive, and Collins tosses plenty of chum into these waters...It's the real deal, folks: primo, primal detective fiction. Pass the peanuts." -Mystery Scene PRAISE FOR MICKEY SPILLANE "Mike Hammer is an icon of our culture." - The New York Times "A superb writer.
