Doug's review reminded me that I've recently read Victor
Gishler's PISTOL POETS, and academic crime novel set in
Oklahoma. It's sort of like what might happen if Elmore
Leonard wrote an academic novel. Plenty of gunplay, some
humor, and plenty of satire on academia. I thought it was a
little too long (there's a whole section I'd probably have
cut), but it was fun, and I'd recommend it.
