  1. Wonderful…I know SO many of these titles and this has been a real trip down nostalgia lane (with a lengthy stop on Macabre Boulevard). I have to say that cyberspace is the perfect venue for sites like this one, delightful niches maintained by people out of love and devotion for their favorite enthusiasms. My last novel, currently making the rounds, features a character called “Nightstalk”, who was named as an homage to Darren McGavin’s classic “Kolchak” (mentioned on your site, of course). A pleasure finding your site this morning–if you get a chance, pop by my blog “Beautiful Desolation” and have a look. You might find something of interest (I suspect you will)…
