#Noirvember: Supernatural Noir

Supernatural Noir
Paul D. Brazill
Near to the Knuckle/Close to the Bone

Werewolves, vampires and other creatures of the night prowl the neon and blood soaked streets in this sharp short story collection that places the supernatural in a hardboiled noir world.

Honestly, I probably have read most of the stories in here before — hell, I probably own them in other collections, but I always grab the latest from Mr B just in case there’s anything I missed. I didn’t even know how much I missed Roman Dalton, his werewolf detective, until I started reading through the stories again. Netflix ought to swoop in and bag those stories for a new series.

There’s a mix of other protagonists here, too — a variety of one-offs like ‘The Liberator’ that nonetheless fit in the same dark demonised streets that Roman roams. Like Lenny said, you want it darker? Then this is your world. Howl at the moon and watch your back.

He’s even got a playlist for the book!

Song for a Saturday: Broken Bicycles – Tom Waits

I was lucky enough to get a story in the new edition of Drunk on the Moon: A Roman Dalton Anthology. Of course I turned to the original crooner of ‘Drunk on the Moon’ for inspiration and chose a tune from One from the Heart, an unjustly overlooked disc from Waits and the crystal-voiced Crystal Gayle.

‘Broken Bicycles’ takes a look at the collateral damage of crime in The City and how desperation drives people to try mad ways out of apparent hopelessness — even if your only role models come from comic books. Check out the whole collection for more adventures with the werewolf P.I. Great stories and the price is right.

Review: The Neon Moon

The Neon Moon
A Roman Dalton Anthology
Ed. Paul D. Brazill
Blackwitch Press

Another fistful of fun from Blackwitch Press. A bunch of terrific writers run away with Paul D. Brazill‘s werewolf detective Roman Dalton and the dark madness of The City. Matt Hilton brings ‘Booze and Ooze’ while Vincent Zandri takes on ‘Full Moonlight’. ‘Chances Are’ you’ll enjoy Carrie Clevenger’s fresh take on the old cop tale. Ponzi schemes from JJ Toner, darkness from Veronica Marie Lewis-Shaw and wild times from Chris Rhatigan, Ben Sobieck and Ben Lelièvre. The lad himself rounds out the collection with ‘The Brain Salad Murders.’ Spend a night with the werewolf detective and you’ll never be the same again — and who’d want to be?

Na zdrowia!

At Knife Point: Paul D. Brazill

Over at A Knife & A Quill, I have an interview with Paul D. Brazill:

Who’s that howling at the moon? Why it’s none other than our fave werewolf detective, Roman Dalton. Paul D. Brazill has a new collection out of tales from the desk of the notorious PI. AK&AQ had the chance to get the writer at knife point and quiz him about the latest publication.

Q: Who is Roman Dalton, Werewolf PI?

A grizzled ex- cop turned grizzly werewolf who prowls The City’s neon and blood soaked streets. And drinks a lot.

Q: How did you create him?

Tom Waits is as noir as a very noir thing and his song Drunk On The Moon is one of his noirest. It always made me think of werewolves. So, when the late lamented Dark Valentine Magazine opened submissions for cross-genre stories I just thought of a werewolf/PI crossover called Drunk On The Moon. It seemed natural.

Q: Where do these stories take place?

The stories take place in somewhere known as The City which is neither here nor there but certainly south of heaven….
