Monday LOL Book

LOL Snoopy
LOL books have a serious case of post-vacation brain lag this morning. Previous LOL books are available at http://jimhines.livejournal.com/tag/lol.

Today we have The Long Look [Amazon | Mysterious Galaxy], by Richard Parks (aka [info]ogre_san). I have a soft spot for Five Star's books, since they were the first publisher to put Goblin Quest out there. Clearly a small publisher with great taste and an eye for talent :-)

Add to this the fact that Richard Parks is a heck of a storyteller, and this should be a very impressive novel. (I believe this will be his first full-length novel ... but I could be mistaken. See the note about brain lag.)

Glad you like it! I'm sorry I didn't e-mail you about this beforehand. I was away from e-mail last week, and already skipped last Monday's LOL book, so I kind of rushed this time.

There's a request for more info below. Do you have a good write-up about the book at your web site? (Surf Control blocks your site from me here at work. Just what are you posting there, buddy?)

Good question. It blocks me too. Maybe the reference to "iniquity."

OK - the cover intrigues me, but what's it about? I checked both the Amazon and Mysterious Galaxy links and there's NOTHING about the book. I'm always looking for a new, good read, but I prefer to look before I leap.
TIA, Kerry

You're very welcome! I figured Monday mornings would be a good time for a little humor.
