2002012357Norfolk VA U.S.A.: Crippen & Landru Publishers 2002. 1st ed. Fine in dust jacket. One of 225 copies this being # 177 bound in cloth and SIGNED & NUMBERED by the author. Accompanying each copy is a seperately printed pamphlet "By the Light of the Loon" by DuBois. Three of the stories were nominated for an EDGAR AWARD while another WON a SHAMUS AWARD. Eleven stories and includes a bibliography. "To say that Brendan DuBois writes Thrillers is equivalent to saying that Fabergé was pretty good at decorating eggs. Not exactly wrong but a vast understatement of their accomplishments. Brendan DuBois's stories are not only filled with conflict tension and mystery but they also dig into the issues that dominate our times. Several of them like the Edgar-nominated title story are about people who served in the murky and amoral world of international intrigue and now want only tranquility in a New England town -- but their pasts come back. Others like the Shamus-winning "The Road's End" combine detection with the tension of the hunt -- but who is the hunter and who the hunted The stories are about revenge and betrayal but above all they are about putting down roots and finding identity." -- dust jacket. Signed by Author. First Edition. Hard Cover. Fine/Fine. Illus. by Heyer Carol. Book. Crippen & Landru, Publishers Hardcover
2003013720Sun City AZ U.S.A.: Dennis McMillan Publications 2003. 1st ed. Fine in dust jacket. This copy is SIGNED by all three contributors: Nisbet the Author S. Clay Wilson Illustrator and Dennis McMillan the Publisher. This first trade edition is limited to just 1000 copies. Previously only available in French. Dustjacket endsheets and foil stamping all by S. Clay Wilson. The jacket is graphically illustrated and something to see. The inside front page is embosed with a gold skull. " In this bleak noir novel set in San Francisco Nisbet Prelude to a Scream etches the lives of two wretched misfits in acid prose. At 50-plus years of age Mark "Pauley" Paulos has survived the horrifically abusive childhood trauma that forms the book's unforgettable prologue along with untracked periods of jail and other misadventures to achieve a kind of precarious stasis. Martin Seam on the other hand has little idea of who or what he is. Full of wants and needs and thoroughly amoral he is willing to steal cheat scam or do anything merely to quiet those incessant desires. Unfortunately Martin is as unsuccessful as he is unscrupulous. When these two collide in their separate orbits about the universe it seems like a cosmic joke. If Elmore Leonard had created Pauley and Martin they would shine with a fine comic sheen. In Nisbet's hands they scratch prickle sweat and stink. Nisbet can overwrite "Like the lysergic pinwheel from which depointillates all phenomenology Mark Paulos' entire juvenile world devolved upon that nail and its strop" but he also presents with wrenching effectiveness the fragile accommodations his characters have to make in order to survive in a hostile world they can never overcome and can keep at bay only for a time." -- PUBLISHERS WEEKLY.
