Will You Remember Me?

Ten months after Patti Abbott launched her “forgotten books” series on the Web, bloggers continue to make recommendations of written works that have, for one reason or another, fallen by the wayside over time, but deserve to be rediscovered. Today’s batch of remembered reads includes: The Dust and the Heat, by Michael Gilbert; The Valkyrie Encounter, by Stephen Marlowe; The Blue Kimono Kill, by Walt Sheldon; Killer’s Wedge and ’Til Death, by Ed McBain; The Last Song Dogs, by Sinclair Browning; Larry Maddock’s Agent of T.E.R.R.A. series; Such Is Life, by Joseph Furphy; David Cole’s Laura Winslow mysteries; and Prey, by Ken Goddard.

Abbott features four more selections in her own blog, including Erle Stanley Gardner’s The Case of the Black-eyed Blonde. Go to her site, too, for a full list of today’s fine “forgottens.”
