I am constantly amazed by the number of people who still haven’t read Gord Rollo’s body of work. My first encounter, as many people, was his Leisure release in 2008 of The Jigsaw Man. I actually wrote a book review for Withersin Magazine back in April of this year on that very same book. I was then able to meet and hang out with him for the first time at Context 22 earlier this year, as well.
Not only is his work bloody exciting and well written, but he’s a hell of a nice guy to boot. Since Context we’ve become friends and when he told me he was knee-deep writing his next Leisure release, I not only became excited to eventually read something new by him, but also knew that more people need to start reading his previous work now to get excited with the next book that’s coming out soon.
You can check out Gord’s site here. Believe me, you’ll have a bloody good time!
Well, I haven’t read any of Gord’s work yet. But it’s on the large TBR pile. Right next to Laymon….lol
Gord is an amazing guy and super friendly. It was great meeting and hanging out with him at Context.
I look forward to his old and new work.
Thanks for the head’s up Ty!
