This time around, the tales are of villainy versus virtue from the Golden Age of pulp fiction and the dawn of modern crime writing. Harlan Ellison introduces a collection of 16 taut and muscular tales starring some of fiction’s hardest-boiled criminals, crooks, desperados and rogues. Anti-heroes to a man, these are the guys who can be guaranteed to outwit the cops, make off with the dough and get the girl. Just don’t get in their way.
