Hellcats and Honeygirls, an omnibus of three early sleaze novels by Lawrence Block and Donald Westlake, is finally shipping (about five weeks late). I got my copy today and it’s beautiful. In the flesh, the dustjacket looks even more gorgeous than the above image.
The novels included are:
- A Girl Called Honey (first chapter by Block, chapters alternating)
- So Willing (first chapter by Westlake, chapters alternating)
- Sin Hellcat (Block won’t tell us who wrote what)
Also included is an introduction by Lawrence Block.
Hellcats and Honeygirls is a little pricey at $30, but not so bad if you think of it as $10 per book. And the volume really is a thing of beauty, and built to last, to boot.
(You can see the original covers here.)
Update: I should mention that if this is something you’re interested in, you ought to snag a copy now. Subterranean Press titles don’t tend to stay in print for very long, so this one could be gone fairly quickly. Don’t put it off now and regret it later (as I’ve done so, so many times…).
