You Bunch of Mad Illiterates...

It probably only matters to me, but apparently, in the fall of 2009, Busted Flush Press will be releasing their first original novel, Tower.  It's a collaboration between Ken Bruen and Reed Farrel Coleman, two of the finest living writers of crime fiction.

A little bit about the book:

"Born into a rough Brooklyn neighborhood, outsiders in their own families, Nick and Todd forge a lifelong bond that persists in the face of crushing loss, blood, and betrayal. Low-level wiseguys with little ambition and even less of a future, the friends become major players in the potential destruction of an international crime syndicate that stretches from the cargo area at Kennedy Airport to the streets of New York, Belfast, and Boston to the alleyways of Mexican border towns. Their paths are littered with the bodies of undercover cops, snitches, lovers, and stone-cold killers."

One final thought: Busted Flush Press (prize (& a good one!) for the first person to tell me where they got the name) is an independant press.  Don't you dare effing buy this book at Borders...
