Noir

[close] Did you enjoy Stieg Larsson's Millenium Trilogy and want to explore more in the genre? Or just looking for something new to read

[close] Noir, hardboiled and pulp. This is the reading group linked to the Point Blank podcast. If you're a fan already, support the guys through Patreon at : https://www.patreon.com/pointblankcrime/overview If you've never heard the podcast, find it here: https://itunes.apple.com/us/podcast/point-blank-hardboiled-noir-detective-fiction/id1276038868?mt=2 If you have heard it, it's also there. If you're not interested in podcasts, but love pulp and noir, your welcome to stay. Each month we read hard boiled, noir, and pulp fiction along with hosts Kurt and Justin. We are a community that feeds into the podcast and we give feedback and we read a whole bunch of other stuff along the way.

[close] Discussion around the Scottish crime writers and their books featuring at the Bute Noir crime writing festival, taking place on the Isle of Bute in the west of Scotland from 5th to 7th August, 2022. Authors present will include Val McDermid, Douglas Skelton, Denise Mina, Ambrose Parry, Chris Brookmyre, Alan Parks and many others. I am attending the festival but have no association with the organisers.

[close] This group was created by a group of indie authors. We write books, good books, sometimes great books, and we read each other's books. This group is a way for us to introduce new titles, discuss popular indie books, and is open to both indie authors and readers who are looking to "go indie". We invite other indie authors, and while we focus on mystery, crime and noir, really we want to talk about good books with a little grit to them.
