Einstecken will gelernt sein! Eigentlich soll sich Hank von einer Nierenoperation erholen, doch plötzlich tauchen von überall her merkwürdige Typen auf, die es auf ihn abgesehen haben und die auch über Leichen gehen. Was folgt, ist eine unglaubliche Odyssee durch den New Yorker Großstadtdschungel bis nach Mexiko und über Kalifornien zurück nach Manhattan, an die sich der Leser noch lange Zeit erinnern wird. Die perfekte Kulttrilogie für Fans von »The Big Lebowski und Pulp Fiction«. »Ich liebe Charlie Hustons Werke aus mehreren Gründen. Zum einen ist er ein brillanter Geschichtenerzähler und schreibt die besten Dialoge seit George V. Higgins, doch was mir am besten an ihm gefällt, sind sein morbider Sinn für Humor und die scheinbare Mühelosigkeit, mit der er finstere und gleichzeitig komische Schurken erfindet, die Beavis und Butthead wie Sonntagsschüler aussehen lassen.« Stephen King »Ein Plot, auf den Hitchcock neidisch gewesen wäre!« Entertainment Weekly »Charlie Huston mixt extreme Gewalt, rasante Action und eine Portion Melancholie zu mitreißenden Geschichten.« Frank Goosen »Charlie Huston ist einer der herausragendsten Autoren der Kriminalliteratur des 21. Jahrhunderts.« Washington Post »Ein absolut verrücktes Genie!« Duane Swierczynski »Huston ist einer der großartigsten und frischesten Autoren unserer Zeit.« Publishers Weekly »Charlie Huston liest sich wie Chandler auf Speed.« Playboy »Hustons Dialoge sind atemberaubend und seine Charaktere unvergesslich. Dem kann sich keiner entziehen.« The New York Times Book Review »Cool, blutig, hart muss ein Krimi sein, nicht wahr? Wenn Sie das auch so sehen, ist der Amerikaner Charlie Huston definitiv der richtige Autor für Sie.« Stern »Seine Hank Thompson-Trilogie gehört zum Aufregendsten, was je in der Genreliteratur aufschimmerte.« Max »Der Prügelknabe liest sich wie Der Malteser Falke aufSpeed.« Wallace Stroby »Als hätte Sam Peckinpah bei den Blues Brothers Regie geführt.« Booklist »Huston schreibt wunderbar trocken und hat mit Hank einen unglaublich coolen Helden geschaffen.« Washington Post

Hank Thompson is living off the map in Mexico with a bagful of cash that the Russian mafia wants back and many, many secrets. So when a Russian backpacker shows up in town asking questions, Hank tries to play it cool. But he knows the jig is up when the backpacker mentions the money . . . and the family Hank left behind. Suddenly Hank’s in a desperate race to get to his parents in California before anyone can harm them. Along the way he’ll face Federales and Border Patrol, mafiosi and vigilantes, extortionists and drug dealers, and a couple of psychotic surf bums with an ax to grind. From the golden beaches of the Yucatán to the seedy strip clubs of Vegas, Charlie Huston opens a door to the squalid underworld of crime and corruption–and invites the reader to live it in the extreme.

Get to Know Your Character's Sinister Side A truly memorable antagonist is not a one-dimensional super villain bent on world domination for no particular reason. Realistic, credible bad guys create essential story complications, personalize conflict, add immediacy to a story line, and force the protagonist to evolve. From mischief-makers to villains to arch nemeses, Bullies, Bastards & Bitches shows you how to create nuanced bad guys who are indispensable to the stories in which they appear. Through detailed instruction and examples from contemporary bestsellers and classic page-turners, author Jessica Page Morrell also shows you how to: • Understand the subtle but key differences between unlikeable protagonists, anti-heroes, dark heroes, and bad boys • Supply even your darkest sociopath with a sympathetic attribute that will engage readers • Set the stage for an unforgettable standoff between your hero and your villain • Choose the right type of female villain—femme fatale, mommy dearest, avenger, etc.—for your story Bullies, Bastards & Bitches is your all-encompassing bad-guy compendium to tapping into any character's dark side.

Twentieth Anniversary Edition with Contributions from Joe Hill and Owen King ONE OF TIME MAGAZINE’S TOP 100 NONFICTION BOOKS OF ALL TIME Immensely helpful and illuminating to any aspiring writer, this special edition of Stephen King’s critically lauded, million-copy bestseller shares the experiences, habits, and convictions that have shaped him and his work. “Long live the King” hailed Entertainment Weekly upon publication of Stephen King’s On Writing. Part memoir, part master class by one of the bestselling authors of all time, this superb volume is a revealing and practical view of the writer’s craft, comprising the basic tools of the trade every writer must have. King’s advice is grounded in his vivid memories from childhood through his emergence as a writer, from his struggling early career to his widely reported, near-fatal accident in 1999—and how the inextricable link between writing and living spurred his recovery. Brilliantly structured, friendly and inspiring, On Writing will empower and entertain everyone who reads it—fans, writers, and anyone who loves a great story well told.

“[A] fantastically hopped-up thriller . . . a wrong-man plot worthy of Hitchcock.”—Entertainment Weekly (Editor’s Choice) It’s three thousand miles from the green fields of glory, where Henry “call me Hank” Thompson once played California baseball, to the Lower East Side of Manhattan, where the tenements are old, the rents are high, and the drunks are dirty. But now Hank is here, working as a bartender and taking care of a cat named Bud who is surely going to get him killed. It begins when Hank’s neighbor, Russ, has to leave town in a rush and hands over Bud in a carrier. But it isn’t until two Russians in tracksuits drag Hank over the bar at the joint where he works and beat him to a pulp that he starts to get the idea: Someone wants something from him. He just doesn’t know what it is, where it is, or how to make them understand he doesn’t have it. Within twenty-four hours Hank is running over rooftops, swinging his old aluminum bat for the sweet spot of a guy’s head, playing hide and seek with the NYPD, riding the subway with a dead man at his side, and counting a whole lot of cash on a concrete floor. All because of two cowboys, two Russian mafia men, and some of the weirdest goons ever assembled in one place. All because of Bud. All because once, in another life, in another world, the only thing Hank wanted was to take third base—without getting caught.

Kaum ein Produkt kennt so viele Namen und Abwandlungen wie das Selterswasser. Immer aber gehen sie zurück auf das kochsalz- und kohlensäurehaltige Mineralwasser aus den Quellen im mittelhessischen Selters im Taunus im Landkreis Limburg-Weilburg. Die Spuren des Selterswassers in historischen Darstellungen wurden bereits erforscht, ebenso die zahlreichen Berichte berühmter Chemiker und Mediziner aus fünf Jahrhunderten über den Selters-Brunnen, aber es fehlte bis heute eine Erfassung der Rezeption des Selterswassers in der belletristischen Literatur. So, wie der Begriff "Selterswasser" zum weltweiten Allgemeingut wurde, findet sich sein Gebrauch in Hunderten literarischen Texten aller Kulturen rund um den Erdball. Je nach Kontext kann das Selterswasser in der Literatur amüsieren, erheitern oder gar Leben retten helfen; auf der anderen Seite kann es aber auch zermürben, körperliche Probleme bereiten oder gar töten. Das hier erstmals zusammengestellte umfassende Kompendium literarischer Textauszüge soll ein Nachschlagewerk darstellen zur Auffindung von Textbelegen zum Thema "Selterswasser". Die Sammlung ist zur besseren Orientierung in alphabetischer Reihenfolge der Autorennamen oder – bei anonymen Texten – nach dem Titel geordnet und soll die Leser vor allem zur weiteren ausführlichen Lektüre der Werke animieren.

What do Tom Jones, Nick Cave, Joan Baez, John Denver, Ray Charles, Del Shannon, Keith Richards, B.B. King, Roy Orbison, Johnny Cash, Carol Channing, Manowar and Linda Ronstadt... have in common? Mickey Newbury. They recorded his songs. Matter of fact, Newbury's material has been covered by over 1,230 artists. That is just about everybody. His inspirational ballad "An American Trilogy" has been recorded by more than 550 artists. It was Elvis' showstopper. His "Just Dropped In (To See What Condition My Condition Was In)" is the rocker that launched Kenny Rogers' career into the stratosphere. Newbury, who grew up on Houston's tough North side, is the only songwriter to place four top hits on four different charts... simultaneously. The train hopper was also instrumental in mentoring Kris Kristofferson, who says, "God, I learned more about songwriting from Mickey than I did any other single human being. He was my hero and still is." Shotgun Willie Nelson adds, "He was one of the best writers we've ever had and one of the best friends I've ever had." And that is not all. Newbury's albums enjoy an extensive cult following. Peers consider him among the best of the best, and many artists refer to his albums as "perfect." Some call him a modern day Stephen Foster. Why then is Newbury known mainly to insiders? A well-kept secret? Too good for the masses? Two truths can be stated: The man cannot be pigeonholed, and he refused to sell out. Like crystal and stone, Newbury's fascinating story is clearly and solidly laid out. It may even change a few truths. As he wrote, Time has a way of changing everything Truth has a way of changing all the time.
