DOUBLE INDEMNITY : A noir classic

THEY LIVE BY NIGHT : A noir classic

IT: THE TERROR FROM BEYOND SPACE-A 1950's Sci-Fi classic.

Upon Further Review: NIGHT AND THE CITY- A noir classic.

These three critics are happy because they've just read: Escape From Camp Orken.

"... the pace is fast, the expert dialogue snappy. It conjured up all the action and fun of Mad Max, with elements of Deathrace and Escape from New York and The Dirty Dozen.... Praino’s Escape from Camp Orken ... was a huge amount of fun and well worthy of a sequel."

"Fast action, good pacing, interesting plot, and a few twists and turns that kept me interested. This is an author to keep an eye on."re humor, just to keep you on the emotional roller-coaster. This is a great read for young men..., who have grown up as gamers. ...packed with as much action as any game you have ever played."
