MacMillan, 1966

A diary of Joe Namath's first year with the Jets (1965)
Bob Curran did history a favor by writing this chronicle of the 1965 New York Jets, which was the rookie season for their future superstar, Joe Namath. Detailed play-by-play descriptions are given of every game, and the book touches on Jets personalities such as Wahoo McDaniel and Don Maynard. The saga of the team's touchy three-way quarterback situation that year, with Mike Taliaferro trying ...

St Martins Pr, 1988

A nightmare close to home
I live 2 miles away from West Pittston and know people who either knew the Smurls or who are related to them. I actually attended their national press conference when all of these events occurred. I will *never* forget the feeling that I had when I first heard the story as a teen. I used to be really well read with this topic but once the 'drama' of it all died down I didn't think much of it. I ...

Chaosium, Inc., 2007

Excellent Cthulhu mythos anthology set on the American frontier
Frontier Cthulhu is a rousing trade paperback of all new mythos stories from Chaosium, published in late 2007. I am so happy about this avalanche of new mythos fiction from Elder Signs Press, Chaosium, Mythos Books and Hippocampus in the US, and Rainfall Books in the UK. Every few months us fans have some new book to gloat over; on the horizon are a Nyarlathotep anthology from Elder Signs ...

JnJ Publications & Rainfall Books, 2007

Selection of stories from Rainfall Books' chapbooks
Cthulhu's Creatures was released in 2007 and I have only now gotten around to reviewing it. There are a number of reasons for that; I suppose my problem was that although I mostly enjoyed this book, the best stories were all reprints I already had, mythos poetry is just about never any good and the worst stories were not so hot. Rainfall Books is an enterprising press in the UK which produces ...

St. Martin's Press, 1989

Faith keeps harrowed family together.
I ended up buying a copy of this book based on a made for TV film I had seen years ago. It just turned out that the man I was talking to about the film knew it had been based on a book and knew who wrote it. I hadn't known of the book and as I do enjoy a scare thought I'd give it a whirl. The first and most scary element is that this book is written by a man of faith, a recognised priest. ...
