Taking up where Of Modern Dragons (2007) left off, these essays continue Lennard's investigation of the praxis of serial reading and the best genre fiction of recent decades, including work by Bill James, Walter Mosley, Lois Mcmaster Bujold, and Ursula K. Le Guin. There are groundbreaking studies of contemporary paranormal romance, and of Hornblower's transition to space, while the final essay deals with the phenomenon and explosive growth of fanfiction, and with the increasingly empowered status of the reader in a digital world. There is an extensive bibliography of genre and critical work, with eight illustrations. John Lennard is Director of Studies at Hughes Hall, Cambridge and has also taught for the Universities of London, Notre Dame, and for the Open University, and was Professor of British & American Literature at the University of the West Indies-Mona, 2004-09. Of Modern Dragons and other essays on genre fiction (2007), is also available from Lulu.

What Dick Francis does for horse racing, John R. Corrigan does for professional golf in his crime novels featuring Jack Austin, a native of Maine and a player on the PGA Tour. Now, with Snap Hook, the first book in the new Hardscrabble Crime series, Corrigan takes Austin deeper into the world of pro golf. The Russian Mafia has long had its claws in North American professional sports-and in Snap Hook it's moving to the PGA Tour. Veteran PGA Tour player Jack Austin has enough to worry about with a balky putter and a rookie caddie-a disadvantaged teen who, like Austin himself, suffers from dyslexia. Winless in ten seasons on the Tour, Austin's putting woes and ensuing poor scores could now cost him his eligibility. When an infant is kidnapped, however, Austin goes after his friend's baby. Soon he comes face to face with Nikoli Silcandrov, a renegade Russian mobster who needs to launder a great deal of money. Austin's final showdown is with PGA Tour superstar Phil Mickelson, when the two go toe-to-toe at the Buick Classic. Corrigan's first Jack Austin mystery, Cut Shot, was hailed by Robert B. Parker as "a riveting novel, with characters you care about, well conceived and gracefully presented."

Named one of the "113 Best Books of Modern Horror" by critic Stanley Wiater, Deus-X offers a potent combination of mystery, psychological horror, and spiritual terror. Two seemingly unrelated events set in motion a complex plot: in a secret government installation in California, a political prisoner is grotesquely executed; while on the East Coast, an elderly Vermont farmer vanishes, the victim of an otherwordly abduction. Three amateur investigators with divergent world views--a psychologist, a physicist, and a priest--join forces to discover the relationship between these two events. Stalked by a murderous psychopath intent on stopping them, they encounter UFOs, inexplicable religious phenomena, multiple personalities, and overwhelming psychic violence. They are drawn inexorably forward through the gothic halls of a Canadian hospital for elderly and demented priests to the locked chambers of a covert American repository for space-age weaponry, where they uncover a sinister application of computer technology.
