Stephen King writes many novels about novelists or other writers, often in the middle of a difficult writing process or even losing their sanity because of their work. He even introduced himself as a character in the Dark Tower series, albeit a most unflattering self portrait. His novels range from sci-fi to horror to drama. Answer 6
John Dunning has written a few mystery books about a book seller (Cliff Janeway who is a retired ex-cop, and who starts up a rare books bookshop). There are about 4 or 5 books so far. The one book I have is called The Bookman's Promise. Others include The Bookman's Wake, The Sign of the Book, Booked to Die, and the most recent book - The Bookwoman's Last Fling. Excellent Stuff, in my opinion. << GO BACK to questions
