Otto Presents Queen's Quorum (Part 1)
This was a fantastic event. I took a Greyhound bus from South Jersey to go see Andrew and I was not disappointed - the Mysterious Bookshop is like a dream. I could spend all day in there, pouring over the walls of books. Manager Ryan and the staff were very friendly and helpful, and once the event began, Andrew was so pleasant and down to Earth. I look forward to Cameron Winter Book #5 and an opportunity to visit the Mysterious Bookshop again!
If you seperate Hard Boiled Fiction and Noir Fiction then Carroll John Daley was the first Hard Boiled Fiction Writer and James M.Cain was the first Noir Fiction Writer (with Dashielle Hammet in between)!!!
wow!
Andrew wasted his talent by getting involved in politics and religion
James like your CRIME books (have no time in my life for alternate fictional history which is horrible enough in reality) or your opening monologues what is going on with the L.A. QUINTENT are Widespread Panic and The Enchanters books 3 and 4 or stand alone 📚 books?!!!
There's James M.Cain and James Ellroy since Dashielle Hammet no one can touch them!!!

Last year, there was a guy who looked and talked and moved like this in a dentist's waiting room in Costa Rica. It's a place where a lot of Americans go for high quality, low cost dental work. So it was probably him or his doppelganger.
Fishing to me really isn't about catching the fish. It's exciting when it happens, but really it's everything else that makes fishing great. Nature, friends, family, the scenery, etc. It's also relaxing, almost meditative. It's a nice escape from the daily grind. Even if you don't catch any fish, you still win.
Love this author. My Dad had been a fan and so because of him I started reading his books and loved them. I actually, probably about 20 years ago now, had a short e-mail correspondence with the man himself. I was 21 or 22 at the time. I felt that I would e-mail him and let him know how much of a fan I'd become of his. I do remember he told me his favorite movie of all time was "Deliverance". He appreciated my praise and was extremely kind. It's a shame to me that such a great writer is barely known. The Brady Coyne books would make an awesome t.v. show too. Glad to have stumbled upon your video. \,,/
That's me in front row 2nd from left wearing black hat
Many thanks for filming this!
I checked out a book by George's Simenon the couple from Poitiers from a local library today the Harcourt publishers.
Mr. Michael Connelly is one of the hardest working writers out there & deserves all the accolades he gets. Far as I'm concerned, he is right up there with my all-time favorite crime writer ever, Derek Raymond (author of I Was Dora Suarez). The other thing I respect about Mr. Connelly he does not try to write like Raymond Chandler, like so many of the young and naive scribes (who fail & fail miserably at it). Please, writers, find your own style. You will only fail if you attempt to imitate someone else.
Unfortunately the overrated The Maltese Falcon no longer holds up.
10 minutes of wind 💨
Now Otto needs to rope him down… ?
I was hoping there would be an audio interview with him somewhere.
BACKGND TO DANGER, I died a 1000 x, The Racket, Nby Lives 4ever,
Fascinating talk I now look forward to opening my copy! Please, please try and sort the audio out for future talks - as this was a difficult and, at times, a painful exercise with audio on full punctuated with ear splitting laughter. Otherwise, thank you very much.
Glad to find this!
The Burning Court is my favorite among his books.
The late night talk show personality is wearing a little thin.
Sensless
Interesting video. I believe the only first editions I have of novels are John Gardner's JAMES BOND books from the 1980s, which I got as each one was coming out. I wrote him some fan letters, and was delighted to get some personal replies, before he told me he could no longer do so (he got too busy!) I was amused by your comment about the "boring trivia"-- when reading either Jules Verne or Ian Fleming, I would often skim past sections that got too technical to get to "the good stuff" (the actual plot). I never had this problem when reading Leslie Charteris, maybe that's one reason he became my favorite author! (Simon Templar is also FAR more likable than James Bond.) I was just joking online that it looked to me like Warren William wanted to throttle Gracie Allen in that film. I just saw that Van Dine passed away 2 months before the film came out. Crazy enough, 20th Century Fox was going to do "The Winter Murder Case" as THE SONJA HENIE MURDER CASE, but then re-wrote it to remove the murder and Philo Vance, and released it as SUN VALLEY SERENADE (1941) with Sonja Henie.
Another banger from man carrying thing
He's quite funny perhaps little off his rocker. I read some of his books there good stories. It's his writing style and short sentences can be frustrating.
Wonderful story! I am in awe.
Yea lets talk about you, cuz I have six of your books.😂😃😍
19:54 you can also tell it's a BOMC when there is no price on the DJ flap
Found this fascinating! So glad it showed up in my RUclips feed… Ross Macdonald one of the all time best… the Lew Archer series, oh so good.
“Acerbic” ! Well chosen 😁
Coincidentally I commented within youtube last week on M.I.'s 'The Weight of the Evidence' as "being in a class of his own" ..also for his "erudition". Comment since taken down bc uploader repeatedly breached audiobooks' copyright ...I guess
Man, I have to look away. You're giving me extreme book envy. And I'm trying, in my older years now, to be practical and to be content with ... kindle. These volumes make that SO painful.
congrats !!!
Recently read his book Telling Lies for Fun and Profit. I know it’s a nonfiction book, he kept mentioning soft core sex books and I was so confused, because I was thinking about them as murder mysteries. It took me quite a while to figure out the book was 20+ years old.
Just started It’s Always 4 O’clock! 🎶🎶 haven’t read him before, but just a few pages in, I think he’s going to be habit forming… perhaps Little Caesar next. Read his Wikipedia blurb… astonishing career. Made a ton of money, but lost most of it gambling…
By the way it will be cheap ebooks,not 1st editions.
Mosley, imaginative, creative, spontaneous and an unstinting passion for writing and storytelling! A treasure…
I read I the Jury and My Gun is Quick decades ago. I can honestly tell you I have never since read anything like those books. Truly a master of his craft
It was such a wonderful read! I didn't want it to end, loved everything about it.
Regarding the covers showing buxom beauties, the stories within were sometimes called "bodice rippers." Alas, rarely was the bodice ripped off.
Your collection looks marvelous! When I toured downtown Manhattan, fresh from small-townville, I just saw, you know, Rockefeller Center, Times Square, Grand Central Station and the rest of the time spent searching desperately for a grocery store that would allow me to stay on my diet! How do people eat healthily there, I wondered. I guess there must be farmer's markets in good weather. Anyway, what a quaint book shop and looks so well-organized! The only Upfield library has in my region is the Mountains Have a Secret.
Thank you so much.
Libre! Thank you… a fav of mine… IMO DeLillo’s best! 🎉
Great interview, thank you! I had to turn up my volume to eleven though...
Lean mean and obscene!
What a wonderful night! Thanks so much to everyone who made it out, and I hope you love CHRISTMAS PRESENTS!
❤The Mysterious!📚👻🎃
The boss is back
Walter is a living legend.
Love his work
Just found your RUclips channel! This is fantastic, especially for a beginning writer. Thank you for doing this!
I buy an Upfield book every chance I get. They are hard to find and cherished. Right now I’m reading his 1956 book Man of Two Tribes in paperback. It says First Collier Books edition published in 1986. I first ran across the name Arthur Upfield in an online obituary of Tony Hillerman who credited him with the idea of crafting the main character of a race other than his own. I investigated him a bit and found out he was in the Battle of Gallipoli in WWI.
I just finished The Other Side Of Silence. Enjoyed it. I had never heard of him before this book. I’m glad my library had this book. I will read him again.interesting video, thank you for posting!
