<p/><br></br><p><b> Book Synopsis </b></p></br></br>"Sharyn McCrumb is a born storyteller." <p/> *Mary Higgins Clark <p/><br>WINNER OF THE EDGAR AWARD! <p/> <p/>"Sharyn McCrumb has few equals and no superiors among today's novelists." <p/> *San Diego Union-Tribune <p/><br>For one fateful weekend, the annual science fiction and fantasy convention, Rubicon, has all but taken over a usually ordinary hotel. Now the halls are alive with Trekkies, tech nerds, and fantasy gamers in their Viking finery *all of them eager to hail their hero, bestselling fantasy author Appin Dungannon: a diminutive despot whose towering ego more than compensates for his 5' 1" height . . . and whose gleeful disdain for his fawning fans is legendary. <p/><br>Hurling insults and furniture with equal abandon, the terrible, tiny author proceeds to alienate ersatz aliens and make-believe warriors at warp speed. But somewhere between the costume contest and the exhibition Dungeons & Dragons game, Dungannon gets done in. While die-hard fans of Dungannon's seemingly endless sword-and-sorcery series wonder how they'll go on and hucksters wonder how much they can get for the dead man's autograph, a hapless cop wonders, Who would want to kill Appin Dungannon? But the real question, as the harried convention organizers know, is Who wouldn't ? <p/><br>"I loved BIMBOS OF THE DEATH SUN . . . Beautifully observed, funny, nicely constructed, even compassionate." <p/> *Robert Silverberg<p/><br></br><p><b> About the Author </b></p></br></br><b>Sharyn McCrumb</b> is an internationally acclaimed <i>New York Times </i>bestselling author whose work has been honored with all five of the major awards in crime fiction (Edgar, Agatha, Anthony, Macavity, and Nero)--with two Best Appalachian Novel awards.
