Thanks for the link. I wish I could help, "Black Wings" is a
book I'd love to read, it has a heavy rep.I looked it up on
Amazon - they had theBlack Lizard edition listed as "out of
print - limited availablity", complete with an ISDN #.Whether
this means that there are unreleased copies of the book
gathering dust in a warehouse or this is just some clerical
error is not known to me. I suspect the latter.Back in 2000
there was some talk of Barry Gifford reviving the original
Black Lizard line, which would make this book ideal as one of
the first releases.We can only hope that this is the case -
I've yet to hear any more on the topic. I was hoping someone
on this list would have more info but so far there has been
deafening silence on the topic.As a side note - I understand
the author's original title was "Red Wings etc". Gold Medal
obviously decided that black was the right hue for noir
(naturally enough) & didn't want to confuse their
readership with a title that didn't refer to darkness or
death, synonyms for which make up a large slice of Gold Medal
titles.
