![]() ![]() I had thought originally to highlight a different book front here today, from the only Jones work I know is in my possession: his 1965 TV tie-in novel, Voyage to the Bottom of the Sea (Whitman). ![]() That was the concluding installment in Crider’s own “PaperBack” series, which he’d debuted in his blog back in 2010-and which The Rap Sheet picked up, in his honor, just before the author’s death in February 2018. ![]() Jones’ 1977 novel, The River and the Dream (which, I just noticed, he misspelled The River and the Dread). ![]() First, it was exactly one year ago today-on December 3, 2017-that Texas mystery writer and longtime blogger Bill Crider posted the front and back covers from Raymond F. The change of pace is provoked by a couple of unfortunate anniversaries occurring this week. I can pretty much guarantee that you’re not the only one looking at this latest installment in The Rap Sheet’s “PaperBack” series and wondering, How in the heck did a science-fiction novel manage to worm its way into this mix? I thought the “PaperBack” choices were all from the crime, mystery, and thriller shelves. Part of a series honoring the late author and blogger Bill Crider. ![]()
