I loved Mixed Blood, was leery about what Wake Up Dead would be like (sophomore novels can be so troublesome) but it just grabbed me and wouldn't let go. What really makes me awestruck though is that few novelists start out at the top of their game. They get better with time and experience. Doesn't that just give you chills when you think about where Smith's work could go? Excellent interview, Keith. Smith is so good at this.

Roger Smith has become one of my top five favorite writers after reading Mixed Blood. Like you I wasn't believing all the hype. But now I know, Roger is the real deal. Violent, brutal and gritty.
