You know, I am positive I read DEATHGRIP when it came out - there's a horrific scene early on in which a car crashes into a record store - but I don't remember Sumer archeology (altho' I do recall it in SNOW CRASH).

DEATH...Good review of NIGHTLIFE here Mr. Errickson. DEATHGRIP has moments and I'll admit I skimmed it because I am recovering from being a drunk. However, DEATHGRIP goes into Sumer archeology like Neal Stephenson's SNOW CRASH did. DEATHGRIP was '91, SNOW CRASH was '92, so the war in Iraq may have revealed some more Cuneiform or revived interest. I enjoy your writing.

NIGHTLIFE is a worthy read. Wasn't a fan at all of his previous novel DARK ADVENT, but I will continue to read him. I also have a copy of PROTOTYPE, and I liked his short story in LOVE IN VEIN.Will Erricksonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16285306262078600804noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-825351661748594023.post-84275864994163919192013-03-08T16:12:41.311-08:002013-03-08T16:12:41.311-08:00It seems like your kind of underplaying Hodge'...It seems like your kind of underplaying Hodge's talent a bit here. I love your reviews but I disagree with sort of throwing Hodge to the side. His talent is immense. Re-read "Deathgrip", its incredible.
