Resumen del Editor
“Knights had no meaning in this game. It wasn’t a game for knights.” (Raymond Chandler)
In a world of criminals, thugs, con artists, cheats, and swindlers, there must be a man to stand against the powers of darkness and corruption. A man not afraid to walk the mean streets—whether they be those of 1930s Los Angeles, an ancient fantasy realm, or some far-flung planet of a future star empire. He is a man who knows that a “good man” is not always a “nice guy”. But when the chips are down, he understands that a hero does the right thing, even if it means losing everything.
He is Sam Spade. He is Philip Marlowe. He is Rick Deckard. He is Harry Dresden.
He is all these men and more.
Now, join Larry Correia and Kacey Ezell as they present all-new stories of fantasy and science fiction with a hardboiled detective bent by today’s top authors.
Grab the bottle of Scotch from your bottom desk drawer. Light a cigarette. Tilt your fedora back on your head. But don’t forget to watch your back. This is No Game for Knights.
Stories by: Laurell K. Hamilton, Larry Correia, Christopher Ruocchio, Michael Haspil, D.J. Butler, Kacey Ezell, Griffin Barber, Robert Buettner, Sharon Shinn, Craig Martelle, Chris Kennedy, S.A. Bailey, G. Scott Huggins, Nicole Givens Kurtz, and Rob Howell.
Larry Correia is the creator of the Wall Street Journal and New York Times best-selling Monster Hunter International series, with first entry Monster Hunter International, as well as urban fantasy hardboiled adventure saga The Grimnoir Chronicles, with first entry Hard Magic, and epic fantasy series The Saga of the Forgotten Warrior, with first entry Son of the Black Sword. He is an avid gun user and advocate who shot on a competitive level for many years. Before becoming a full-time writer, he was a military contract accountant and a small-business accountant and manager. Correia lives in Utah with his wife and family.
Kacey Ezell is a medical emergency helicopter pilot, recently retired from the USAF, who also writes sci-fi/fantasy/alt history/horror fiction. Her first novel was a Dragon Award finalist in 2018, and her stories have been featured in Baen’s Year’s Best Military and Adventure Science Fiction compilation in 2017 and 2018.

Historia
From the pulpy pages of Black Mask Magazine in the 1920s and '30s, through the film noir era of the 1940s, to today, noir fiction has lured many a reader and movie-goer away from the light and into the dark underbelly of society. Names such as Raymond Chandler, Dashiell Hammett, and James M. Cain; titles like The Big Sleep, The Maltese Falcon, The Postman Always Rings Twice...these have inhabited our collective consciousness for decades. Humanity, it seems, loves the dark. And within the dark, one figure stands out: that of the femme fatale.

Historia
Humans have always been fascinated by darkness. Especially the darkness of a city at night, when the black sky is made ever more inky by the pools of illumination dropped under streetlights. Whether the mean streets be in an alternate past charmed with dark magic or the dirty alleyways of futuristic crowded space stations, the city—and its darkened streets—will always fascinate us. Here then, an anthology of all new stories of science fiction and fantasy with a hardboiled noir twist that acknowledge that the city is a living, breathing entity...and it isn’t always on our side.

Five days after Owen Zastava Pitt pushed his insufferable boss out of a 14th story window, he woke up in the hospital with a scarred face, an unbelievable memory, and a job offer. It turns out that monsters are real. All the things from myth, legend, and B-movies are out there, waiting in the shadows. Some of them are evil, and some are just hungry.

Historia
When the biggest colony ship in human history was sent to settle a paradise world, an accident hurtled it deep into uncharted space. A thousand light years from Earth, with no way home and no way to call for help, the colonists’ only hope for survival was the one barely habitable planet in range, a nightmare world they named Croatoan. Landing on the only five mountain peaks tall enough to rise above the lethal acid clouds, the settlers carved a civilization from the rock.

Historia
Do you love sparkly vampires? Well, too bad, because you won’t find a single one of those fancy-dancy bloodsuckers anywhere in this collection! It Came from the Trailer Park began as a fun idea to revisit the classic horror and old-school creature feature genres, with a hefty helping of B-rate tropes thrown in for good measure. Who doesn’t love a good Bruce Cambell or classic Vincent Price flick on a dark and dreary night? Emmy award winner Bill Oberst, Jr. opens the collection and sets the stage for the stories to come.

For the first time the secrets of both Makeda and her people are revealed in the tale of their epic struggle for honor and survival in Instruments of War.

Once, Jackson Rook was a war hero. Raised from boyhood to pilot an exosuit mech, he’d fought gallantly for the rebellion against the Collectivists. But that was a long time ago, on a world very far away. Now, Jackson Rook is a criminal, a smuggler on board the Multipurpose Supply Vehicle Tar Heel. His latest mission: steal a top-of-the-line mech called the Citadel and deliver it to the far-flung planet Swindle, a world so hostile even the air will kill you. The client: a man known only as the Warlord.

Bringing with him the practical experience that comes from having owned a high-end gun store—catering largely to law enforcement—and as a competitive shooter and self-defense trainer, Correia blasts apart the emotion-laden, logic-free rhetoric of the gun-control fanatics who turn every "mass shooting" into a crazed call for violating your rights, abusing the Constitution—and doing absolutely nothing to really fight crime.

Thirty years later, humanity has rebuilt … to an extent. Human ingenuity has provided some creative solutions to life without electricity, but most folks survive at the subsistence level, farming to keep themselves and their families fed.

Just cops & mobsters shorts in different genres
Fourteen mostly traditional stories of cops and knights versus the usual big bad Them. Even though the genres changed from fiction to sci-fi to fantasy, or from past to present to future, few of these gave enough attention to setting, world building, or any characters beyond the MC. Of the three anthologies by this group (Noir Fatale and Down These Mean Streets), this was my least favorite.
Other features: There’s a Table of Contents. The narrators are solid. All the shorts clock in around an hour. Most appear to be standalones. There were two with F bombs. Most were on the decidedly tame end. There don’t seem to be repeats, although I see that Mr. Correia is now offering short story collections made up entirely of his creations, so the last short here may exist elsewhere.
1. 1957 by Robert Buettner - straight up WW intrigue, Casablanca style⭐️
2. Faint Hearts by Griffin Barber, Kacey Ezell - space station / aliens don’t add much to detective noir
3. The Lady in the Pit by DJ Butler - whispered fantasy with a confusing cast and hazy motivations
4. All in the Family by Nicole Givens Kurtz - another detective story for which laser guns add nothing
5. Sammy Oakley and the Jewel of Amureki by Laurell K. Hamilton - MC is a squirrel channeling Zootopia
6. Utopia’s Sheep by Craig Martelle - washed up detective in a world where humans are slaves to A.I. ⭐️
7. Pandemonium by Sharon Shim - like The Equalizer, but starring a shapeshifter
8. Pagan by S.A. Bailey - seedy, full of genetically modified baggage, F bombs don’t elevate this
9. The Hound of Bstd’s Villa by G. Scott Huggins - absurdist fantasy, three stooges style with what-wolves
10. Midnight Ride by by Chris Kennedy - another detective in space, taking a job for a dame
11. The Incomparable Treasure by Robin Howell - wizards and mobsters and meh fantasy
12. Storm Surge by Michael F Haspil - featuring MC Alex from the author’s Graveyard Shift ⭐️
13. Gutter Ballet by Christopher Ruocchio - steampunk gritty in a future empire gone wrong ⭐️⭐️
14. Allegation of an Honorable Man by Larry Correia - a fun caper within the MHI universe ⭐️
