I am not a thinker, nor a philosopher, I don’t think much, I don’t reason much, how I can change the world nor do I weigh the world in categories. I am a poet, and I believe in the beauty of life. I feel things, the air we breathe, the water that flows, the stars that twinkle, the fire that burns, the light that illuminates ..so on ….So life is simple for me ….to feel your way out …through your happiness, through your hardships .. this book is not a great book, its a simple book…a sweet book, that I wrote on some lonely nights I aimlessly walked on my terrace staring the summer sky, or a Sunday when I had ample time, or when there was a power cut… I hope it refreshes you like a lime soda after you read it….. So my readers, Just like someone said .. “ Find happiness in things you do or do things that can give you happiness…..” Live a fruitful life, my fellow earthlings…

“Traverses Texas, finding evidence of the hard boiled, sultry, and disreputable throughout the state . . . Think of the book as a sort of criminal travelogue.” —Booklist If everything is bigger in Texas, then that includes the boldness of the criminals who call the state home. From large urban centers to the Cajun Gulf coast, there is big money to be made running guns, drugs, and catering to the greedy and disillusioned. Each distinctive region can claim its own special brand of outlaw. In Lone Star Noir, you’ll find stories by James Crumley, Joe R. Lansdale, Claudia Smith, Ito Romo, Luis Alberto Urrea, David Corbett, George Wier, Sarah Cortez, Jesse Sublett, Dean James, Tim Tingle, Milton T. Burton, Lisa Sandlin, Jessica Powers, and Bobby Byrd. “This isn’t J.R. Ewing’s Lone Star State. This is the Texas of chicken shit bingo, Enron scamsters, and a feeling that what happens in Mexico stays in Mexico . . . So what defines Texas noir? Who knows, but you better pray that blood doesn’t stain your belt buckle.” —The Austin Chronicle

Robert E. Howard published primarily in pulp magazines, creating memorable characters like Conan of Cimmeria. After his suicide at the age of 30, pulps continued publishing Howard material posthumously. His first hardcover book appeared in 1937, a year after his death. That book, A Gent from Bear Creek, is the holy grail for Howard collectors--only 12 original copies are known to exist. This invaluable resource for Howard collectors has information for every known published work. Initial chapters provide a biography, discuss Howard's literary legacy, and give basic tips about book collecting and selling. The main body of the work is a bibliography of Howard's published works from 1925 through 2005. A thorough index locates the publication of every Howard story or poem.
