Harlan Ellison joins Andre Williams, Sun Ra, Nick
Tosches and Kim Fowley at KICKS BOOKS, as he explodes from the launching pad with
the first volume of mind-maulin’ short stories that deliver a one-two JD punch
that is sure to rearrange your zipgun collection. The king of sci-fi future-bop
finally reclaims the throne as the unadulterated boss cat of juvenile
delinquent badass fiction with a mess of insane stories (including the elusive landmark JD/jailbait/bad seed socker SEX GANG) that have been
unavailable for fifty years. Harlan has written a massive introduction that
unravels the mystery behind his most elusive cranium crackers! Full blast at
kicksbooks.com! 176 pages. $14.95
