About this product
Product Information
The biggest, the boldest, the most comprehensive collection of Pulp writing ever assembled. Weighing in at over a thousand pages, containing over forty-seven stories and two novels, this book is big baby, bigger and more powerful than a freight train--a bullet couldn't pass through it. Here are the best stories and every major writer who ever appeared in celebrated Pulps like Black Mask , Dime Detective , Detective Fiction Weekly , and more. These are the classic tales that created the genre and gave birth to hard-hitting detectives who smoke criminals like packs of cigarettes; sultry dames whose looks are as lethal as a dagger to the chest; and gin-soaked hideouts where conversations are just preludes to murder. This is crime fiction at its gritty best. Including: * Three stories by Raymond Chandler, Cornell Woolrich, Erle Stanley Gardner, and Dashiell Hammett. * Complete novels from Carroll John Daly, the man who invented the hard-boiled detective, and Fredrick Nebel, one of the masters of the form. * A never before published Dashiell Hammett story. * Every other major pulp writer of the time, including Paul Cain, Steve Fisher, James M. Cain, Horace McCoy, and many many more of whom you've probably never heard. * Three deadly sections-The Crimefighters, The Villains, and Dames-with three unstoppable introductions by Harlan Coben, Harlan Ellison, and Laura Lippman Featuring: * Plenty of reasons for murder, all of them good. * A kid so smart-he'll die of it. * A soft-hearted loan shark's legman learning-the hard way-never to buy a strange blonde a hamburger. * The uncanny "Moon Man" and his mad-money victims.
