Reviews
The most successful entries delve bone-deep into addiction, as characters smoke to smother physical pain, loneliness, and their days . . . These writers capture the mental gymnastics behind the characters' bad decisions, and the joy such bad decisions can bring., Critical praise for Lee Child: "Child is one writer who should never be taken for granted." -- New York Times "Child's writing is both propulsive and remarkably error-free, and he's expert at ratcheting up the tension." -- Los Angeles Times "A superb craftsman of suspense." -- Entertainment Weekly "Child is a deliberate stylist and his prose is taut, dynamic, and highly-sprung." -- Spectator , "Five Reasons Why the Jack Reacher Novels are Brilliant" "Wily plotting, swift pacing, mordant wit: Child is one skillful writer." -- Kirkus Reviews, Typically for Akashic--publisher of the terrific Noir series--the stories approach the subject matter from an impressive number of angles . . . Akashic has yet to produce a dull anthology, and this one is especially good.

Synopsis
Lee Child recruits Joyce Carol Oates, Jonathan Ames, Cara Black, and others to reveal nicotine's scintillating alter egos. In recent years, nicotine has become as verboten as many hard drugs. The literary styles in this volume are as varied as the moral quandaries herein, and the authors have successfully unleashed their incandescent imaginations on the subject matter, fashioning an immensely addictive collection. Featuring brand-new stories by: Lee Child, Joyce Carol Oates, Jonathan Ames, Eric Bogosian, Achy Obejas, Michael Imperioli, Hannah Tinti, Ariel Gore, Bernice L. McFadden, Cara Black, Christopher Sorrentino, David L. Ulin, Jerry Stahl, Lauren Sanders, Peter Kimani, and Robert Arellano.

    The book was exactly as described and arrived quickly. The only problem is a recurring one with this seller and other similar sellers - the book is poorly packaged in a plastic envelope and gets heavily bumped in shipping. I would like to see the books wrapped before shipment, but I understand this can't be done for cost reason. Luckily it isn't an expensive book, and I will continue to purchase basic books from this seller. A+++++

    Book arrived quickly and is pretty close to "Very Good" description. Value priced and I'm glad I made the purchase as this is an excellent read. However, the book was mailed loose inside an over-sized plastic bag without any protection. Wrapped in a bubble wrap jacket would be a big help. A book can take a beating in USPS transit without some buffer. I can't tell if the bumps and dings were original or occurred in transit. I'd prefer to pay for shipping than have it sent with no protection.
