I’m just catching up to this one; heard great things about it everywhere. I’m 8 chapters in and feel very comfortable saying this guy (Whitmer) is a genuine talent. Excellent so far. I’m only stopping for a reunion dinner with my ex-roommate from North Dakota. I started reading it at the gym a little while ago and forgot I’m supposed to use the equipment there. This book is EXCELLENT and I will be reviewing it at my dopey blog next week.

Andrea Gibbons here, one of the editors of Switchblade, currently celebrating a review like this with some bourbon. The same way I celebrated when I read the manuscript and realized we’d be lucky enough to publish it. But apologies for the delay in printing! It should be available in a week or two, and we do have more coming up, aiming for two a season. You can go to the Switchblade page at http://www.pmpress.org/content/article.php/switchblade to see the latest. The next book out will be Chieu Hoi Saloon by Michael Harris, a journey into the blackest depths I’ve ever read, and will be out in September. We’ll be listing more upcoming in August…

I will be reading this. I have so many going on at the same time but I have thought about this book since the first time you mentioned it.
