Week of Feb. 2 2005 | Otto Penzler This week my guest is Otto Penzler. Mr. Penzler joined us earlier in the fall to discuss his collection BEST AMERICAN MYSTERY STORIES OF 2004. This week we will discuss DANGEROUS WOMEN, published by Time Warner Books. The collection features seventeen of the best crime writers working today. Each story is unique and has its own blend of intrigue and subterfuge. It is one of the finest collections I have read in years. All of the stories were commissioned by Otto, none of them have appeared elsewhere, making it much different than your typical anthology. My favorite stories are those written by Walter Moseley, Nelson DeMille, Jeffrey Deaver, Andre Klavan, Joyce Carol Oates, and Thomas H. Cook. Some of
the authors, including Elmore Leonard, liked the characters so much they
are writing their next novel about them. Janet Evanovich, who does not
write many blurbs
for dust jackets, says, " I'm not usually given to superlatives,
but DANGEROUS WOMEN may be the best, most varied, and colorful mystery
anthology of all time." Enough
said. Enjoy the interview, then read the book.
