I haven't read them yet, but I knew it wasn't finished. My big beef was I saw Patrick advertise on his Twitter the "Tenth Anniversary Edition" and was like "YOU DON'T GET A TENTH ANNIVERSARY EDITION IF YOU HAVEN'T FINISHED THE SERIES YET!!!" LOLOh. Cool. Another book/series that isn't done..... Should have figured that out, I guess.

I like Dashell Hammett OK, but Raymond Chandler is where it's at for me. His plots are...occasional, at best, but the phrasing and imagery is just...stunning.My gaming friend from work lent me a book he wants me to read, The Big Book of the Continental Op by Dashiell Hammett. It's a compendium of all 28 stories and two serialized novels from the pulp magazines. I've never read any Dashiell Hammett before but I've recently taken a liking to detective fiction so I'll looking forward to giving him a try. If I like him, this is what I'll be reading for quite some time - the book is 733 pages long, and that's in an oversized book (the pages are 7" by 9.25" with two columns per page).
