I was perusing the latest Rolling Stone (the one with The Eagles) on the cover.
In the back there was an ad for some 'Martial Arts Noir' books. Through my tears of laughter I saw the glowing endorsement of our very own DM.
"Smart, Martial-arts thriller" - Gene Ching, Kung-Fu Magazine.
Right above "A writer who understands the deeper side" - Stuart Charno, Kung-Fu Master
It was cool seeing DMs name out of the blue like that.
I am curious about the book though. I envision passages like "Wei Fung launched himself from the Solid Horse stance and spun his whole body into the Startled Monkey kick landing his left foot against his opponent's cheek hearing the satisfying crunch of bone".
Come on DM - give us a full review.
BTW I'm not trying to be dismissive. It's just that I'm incredibly cynical about commercial ventures that capitalize on a 'gimmick', like the crappy 'Dead Tour' murder mystery that used Grateful Dead shows as a backdrop for some horrible storytelling.
