The name sounds vaguely familiar, but I'm not sure where from. What kinda stuff does he write? I'm always lookin' for new authors to check out. I just recently got hooked on Joe R. Lansdale and Nick Tosches, two VERY different, but amazingly good writers.

urban crime kinda stuff, most of it taking place in DC. drugs, murder, underworld kinda stuff.
it holds my attention .
i read gone baby gone by dennis lehane recently. that was a damn good book. someone on here pointed me in its direction.

George Pelecanos is one of my favourite writers. I just read the King Suckerman, which I think was the best book I've read this year.

If you like Edward Bunker, you got to check out G. Pelecanos!

i've read all his stuff.
i don't think he's written anything since he's been doing the wire for hbo and stuff.
