Lawrence Sanders -- information

There's really not a lot of stuff on the web about Sanders, aside from the 320 fan reviews of McNally's Migrane or whatever.

Here’s the Thrilling Detective page on Sanders.

A little too much cheerleading here, but you sort of expect that from Thrilling Detective, and aside from that there's a lot of interesting information, starting with Sanders using a pseudonym a couple of times. I did not know that. Apparently Sanders really was a straightforward professional, spending many years as second-tier kind of journalist. He achieved his success in later years, which is always heartening to hear, too.

This looks like a fairly complete bibliography.

A good blog entry where some guy ruminates on his sixth grade reading material. Hell, he sounds precocious – I think I first read Sanders a bit later. (Interesting reference to smutty Sanders sex books, too. Maybe an update? Although of course you never find THOSE in the thrift stores. And actually, really, Sanders doesn't exactly have a reputation as a smutty sex novelist, which suggests these are all lacking that ineffable something that makes that kind of thing really work.)

Interesting review of Sanders’ sf novel The Tomorrow File, which is another one of those books I’m vaguely curious about but not so much to really dig up. Sounds dystopian in a hip-Seventies kind of way.

And that’s about it, at least of interesting stuff I could find. A good example of a popular writer who’s not much discussed online.
