Review: Will say that Jim Thompson was one great writer! - Didn't get this. Instead I got the Sam Walton biography. But I didn't complain. It was from Goodwill store and probably the worker couldn't read so I didn't mind the donation. Will say that Jim Thompson was one great writer!! Maybe I'll run into this sometime.
Review: like his work for various true crime magazines - WARNING: The paperback version of Fireworks includes only about one third of the hardcover edition. Much of the missing material is comprised of the less traditional Thompson writings, like his work for various true crime magazines. Since the cost of the hardcover has recently gone down, from $11 to about $2, I suggest you pick this one up quickly.
