Oh, the humanity.

Soon-to-be-Mockingbird!

He bought all those record home run baseballs, too…

You are most welcome! I love the amount of detail and attention you put into it. I could believe those were real shows and movies ❤️

It’s also got great fight scenes, snappy dialogue, and awesome artwork. Go read it ASAP!

The murder/mystery is well plotted but what really makes this book is its exceptional character work. It is somewhat reminiscent of one of my favorite Jim Thompson books, The Kill-Off, but still very much its own, wonderfully compelling thing.

And then stopping yourself from also adding, he also played Binky, the villain in Shakes the Clown.

The Baseball Willenium is truly upon us!

I love that they spelled out Artoo Detoo like it was the official alien name, and poor R5-D4 just got letters and numbers.

You’re welcome! I especially loved Henri. Big lugs like him are always fun characters!

@patrickhorvath.bsky.social has created something really special here, and I am eager to read the sequel, which is coming out now.
