The Gang That Shot Up Hollywood: Chronicles of a Chronicle Writer: Vol. 1

  Author: John Stanley
By Creatures at Large Press

John Stanley, 33-year veteran entertainment writer for the San Francisco Chronicle, stalks the environs of Hollywood and San Francisco to profile male & female stars of yesteryear who blasted their way through movies and TV series with high-powered handguns, curvaceous, slinky bodies and other weapons of excessive destruction, all for decent box office. Savor four classic Clint Eastwood encounters: Two “Dirty Harry” moments with actor Clint and two Iwo Jima moments with director Clint. Stanley presents exclusive material and photos about Iwo surrounding the raising of the first small flag, and introduces you to fellow Chronicle employee Joe Rosenthal, who took the famous photo of the second flag-raising. Can hard-hitting martial arts star Chuck Norris survive three showdowns with Stanley? James Stewart survived two Stanley encounters: one about his hard-boiled Westerns, the other about his Hitchcock classics.

Karl Malden faces Stanley in five showdowns on the streets of San Francisco. Sink ...


The Gamblers

  Author: Martin Stanley

Kandinsky's life is at rock-bottom. He's a gambler in debt to a vicious loan-shark and he's going nowhere fast. Then, by chance, he overhears a conversation and realises he has a way out of his mess. He decides to hijack a robbery of seven hundred and fifty grand's worth of drug money.

He thinks it's going to be easy - a sure thing.

But when your partners are even bigger losers than you are, and the owner of the money is a sadistic drug-dealer who's prepared to kill everybody in his way, nothing's ever easy. And when the people you've stolen from want a piece of you too, the only thing that's sure is there's going to be blood. And lots of it.

The Gamblers is a dark, fast-moving and violent odyssey through the Bristol underworld - the kind of place where every smile hides a betrayal and the hand of friendship usually carries a gun. The Gamblers is a vicious British noir in the tradition of Derek Raymond and Ted Lewis.

--Here's a review of The Gamblers by Heath Lowrance, acclaimed author of 'The Bastard Hand' and 'Dig Ten Graves'--
