"Diamond hard noir. No holds barred, no punches pulled. There''s a whole lot of fun to be had. Sharp, to-the-point, and briskly-written. More Ray Boyd please, Mr. Goldberg." CrimeTime FM Ray Boyd is an ex-con traveling the open road in a used Ford Crown Victoria Police Interceptor, going wherever his need for money and sex lead him, thinking only of himself and nobody else. In "If I Were a Rich Man," Goldberg''s brutal, sexually explicit, and darkly funny new novella, Ray is on the trail of lost diamonds from a legendary jewelry heist...and stumbles into a twisted honey trap. Praise for the Ray Boyd stories: "Boyd plays all the notes just right. The trip is a blast." Dark City Underground "Goldberg brings on the funny while being wildly observant." Los Angeles Times "Ray, even with all his failings, is a Lee Goldberg character: observant, witty, at times downright funny - for the reader at least - and a heck of a good escape for all of us drab work-a-day slobs." Gravetapping "A fun departure for Goldberg and a throwback to the thrilling and erotic men''s adventure novels of the 1970s." Ellery Queen Mystery Magazine "And here I thought that Lee Goldberg was such a nice boy¿but in Crown Vic, he unleashes the beast with stories that just reek of 1950s pulp paperbacks." The Thrilling Detective

From #1 New York Times bestselling author Lee Goldberg comes the final, pulse-pounding book in the bloody, action-packed JURY SERIES, the novels that launched his career in the 1980s. Brett Macklin faces his greatest adversary yet--a ruthless, professional hit woman, seductress and master of disguise who launches a campaign of terror and bloodshed against him, pushing the vigilante to the emotional and physical breaking point, unleashing a bloody killstorm on the L.A. streets."As stunning as the report of a .357 Magnum, a dynamic premiere effort [...] The Best New Paperback Series of the year!"

In the 1980s, long before Lee Goldberg became a #1 New York Times bestselling author and successful TV writer/producer, he paid his UCLA tuition and rent by working as a freelance journalist covering the entertainment industry. His first, big interviews was with one of his idols, screenwriter Richard Maibaum, who wrote most of the James Bond movies. That lengthy, controversial, and award-winning interview, first published in the UCLA Daily Bruin and later reprinted in Starlog Magazine, was the beginning of Lee''s extensive 007 coverage.Over the next few years, his Bond-related interviews for Starlog and other publications included actors Barry Nelson (the first man to play James Bond in TV''s Casino Royale), George Lazenby (the one-time Bond in On Her Majesty''s Secret Service), Roger Moore and Timothy Dalton, screenwriters Tom Mankiewicz, Michael Wilson and Lorenzo Semple Jr., and directors John Glen and Peter Hunt. Those interviews and more, quoted for decades in reference books about the Bond films, are now collected for the first time, in their original form, in this entertaining, and unique volume.This book, the first in a series of Goldberg''s collected Hollywood journalism, isn''t an exhaustive, detailed examination of the Bond films. Instead it''s an intriguing snapshot of filmmaking in the 1980s, a revealing look at the creation of the Bond films...and perhaps also offers a glimpse into Goldberg''s formative years as a writer, and how the lessons learned from his interviews may have shaped his own career as an acclaimed novelist and screenwriter."Goldberg''s book is quite a time capsule for James Bond fans, offering glimpses at select films through major creative talents. What it''s not is a front-to-back narrative, so don''t expect that; do expect a little repetition, necessary for piece-by-piece context - these are reprints, after all. Being a sucker for the 007 movies, I regularly buy books about them ? only to usually emerge disappointed. That''s not the case with The James Bond Films 1962-1989, thanks to Goldberg''s access, insight and skill, approaching the work as one should: a writer first, a fan second." -Rod Lott, Flick Attack
