Pride and Glory

For my latest feat on the Kirkus Reviews page, today I compile a rundown of the numerous prizes given out already in the crime-fiction field this year, and look ahead to what the rest of 2011 has to offer in that same regard. As I note in the piece, “Honors in this genre (and others, by the way) aren’t dispensed quite as generously as grade-school good-conduct stars, but they’ve grown substantially in quantity over the years.”

You’ll find my new Kirkus column here.
