In my last post I mentioned some of my favorite recent short story collections. Unfortunately (or fortunately, if I really think about it), I also happen to have a TBR pile that is even longer than that list. Some of the books that I am eagerly looking forward to include:
- Max Allan Collins' Chicago Lightning: The Collected Nathan Heller Short Stories
- Dave Zeltserman's 21 Tales
- Libby Fischer Hellmann's Nice Girl Does Noir Vol. 1 and Nice Girl Does Noir Vol. 2
- The Best American Noir of the Century, edited by James Ellroy and Otto Penzler
- Heath Lowrance's Dig Ten Graves
- Anthony Neil Smith's The Early Crap: Selected Short Stories, 1997 - 2005
- Keith Rawson's Laughing at Dead Men
- Nigel Bird's Beat on the Brat and With Love and Squalor
- McDroll's (aka Fiona Johnson) Kick It Together!
- The Lost Children: A Charity Anthology, edited by Thomas Pluck, Fiona Johnson and John Earl Phillips
- Chris Rhatigan's "Watch You Drown"
- Dani Amore's Four
- Bill Pronzini's Graveyard Plots
- The Best American Mystery Stories of 2011, edited by Harlan Coben
- Pearce Hansen's Gun Sex
- Kaye George's A Patchwork of Stories
- Beat to a Pulp: A Rip Through Time, edited by David Cranmer
- Debbi Mack's Five Uneasy Pieces
- Paul D. Brazill's 13 Shots of Noir
- Iain Rowan's Nowhere To Go
On top of that I have a bunch of back issues of Ellery Queen's Mystery Magazine to go through. The March issue, which I am still working my way through, starts off with terrific stories from Joyce Carol Oates and Doug Allyn. Where am I going to find the time for all these?
