Blood, Snow, & Classic Cars: Mystery Stories

Rating:
Summary: Some repeats
Review: Hansen is a fine writer, and this is a good collection, but the reader should be warned that it has only 6 stories, 3 of which appeared in his earlier collections --"Surf" in Brandstetter & Others (1984), and "An Excuse for Shooting Earl" and "Molly's Aim" in Bohannon's Country, 1993. Moreover, another story, "Home Is the Place," later appeared in Bohannon's Women, 2002. The publisher should object (to someone or other) that "Home is the Place" was reprinted so quickly.

Review: I found Joesph Hansen's Blood,Snow and Classic Cars to be a good read over all. It's not the kind of stories where you try to figure out who "the killer" is, which i'm not very good at. They're just regular stories and the fact that there is gay characters is never used as a shock value. Though i did'nt think all the story were great my favorite ones were Molly's Aim (great), An Excuse for Shooting Earl and Son of the Morning. So over all i would say give then a try. It would make a good book for along the beach or pool side.
