I just read a single crime thriller, i.e. God Father. And I confess that was really intriguing. The first murder committed by Don Vito, the murder of his firstborn, and the preparation of his casket are literally incredible. But the beheading of a horse to get a role (I think )for Jony Fountain was, above all. Well, I can't bear the sight of blood. That's why I avoid such things, but I think action is more worthy to watch rather than to read.
Your short stories are damn good man.
