Testimonials
” “From the trenches of World War I to the post-Vietnam era in North Platte, Nebraska, A Better Place is a wonderfully written, dramatic, multi-generational saga of soldiers, and lovers, goodness and evil. Diverse, complex and unforgettable characters. Well done."
- —Deborah Shlian, award-winning author of Rabbit in the Moon and Silent Survivor
” “Steve Forman strafes the south Florida scene with Boca Knights, an outrageously funny mystery novel with a raft of offbeat characters and prose that moves trippingly off the pen. His main man is a character for the ages. Carl Hiassen, watch your back.”
- —Doug Preston, New York Times bestselling author of Blasphemy
” “Steve Forman’s fun, funky twist of the private eye novel is entertaining and takes dead aim at Boca Raton with devastating results.”
- —James A. Born, author of Burn Zone
” “This novel is long on clever dialogue and character development. Mystery readers of all stripes will like what they find here.”
- —Booklist
” "Boca Mournings is a riotous, ribald look into the wacky world of South Florida. Not since Carl Hiassen at his peak has anyone captured the pothole-marred, driving-impaired, and geriatric-dominated zaniness as well as the new master of the comic crime novel, Steve Forman.”
- —Jon Land, bestselling author of Strong Enough to Die
” “Eddie Perlmutter is a high testosterone, no-nonsense detective with a tender core who makes turning sixty a carnal, tropical ride.”
- —Andrew Gross, New York Times bestselling author
” "Steve Forman is a brutally funny writer. His no-nonsense, unadorned style begs comparison to Dashiell Hammett, but Hammett's humor at its darkest never hit home this hard. Reading of Eddie Perlmutter's exploits is like rolling in an aisle paved with broken glass and wanting to do it all over again two minutes later."
- —Loren D. Estleman, author of FRAMES
” "If my experience reading Boca Knights is any indication of those to follow, I am personally going to have a sleeping problem. I read the book in two nights. Intending to just glance through the first few pages, I read no fewer than 14 chapters the first night, finally getting to sleep at 1:30 am, then turned the last of its 331 pages at 2:15 the next morning!"
