From the Inside Flap
Q: Did you always want to be a writer?
Joe: No. I wanted to be a model for husky pants. But then, when I was barely a teen, they stopped making husky sizes.
Damn those clothing designers for shattering my dreams.
Q: When did you decide to become a writer?
Joe: I mean, I'm not offended by the term "husky." Now they're called "relaxed fit" jeans. It's the same thing, but there's nothing sexy about being a "relaxed fit jeans" model. Husky sounds like you're owning those extra pounds, making them work for you. Relaxed fit sounds like you eat too much and are just plain lazy.
What was your question again? Ideas? I hunt through James Patterson's garbage, and steal what he tossed. When Patterson throws out ten pages, that's like fifty chapters.
Ha ha ha! Get it? Because his chapters are so short! I swear, the last Patterson book I read had more chapters than page numbers.
Actually, I just watch old Outer Limits episodes and appropriate the plots, like Alan Moore did with Watchmen.
Q: Who do you like to read?
Blake Crouch, Ann Voss Peterson, Jeff Strand, Henry Perez, F. Paul Wilson, Tom Schreck. Pretty much anyone I collaborate with. Because here's a dirty little secret: when you co-write a book with someone, you kind of have to read the stuff they wrote.
My absolute favorite author is Dr. Seuss. In fact, I tried my hand at writing a few Dr. Seuss-style children's books. Here are the titles:
HOW THE GRINCH STOLE MY WIFE
HORTON HATCHES A TERRORIST PLOT
ON BEYOND DONKEY PUNCH
MARVIN K MOONEY WILL YOU PLEASE DROP DEAD
THE CAT IN THE HAT GETS NEUTERED
GREEN EGGS AND E COLI
THIDWICK THE BIG HEARTED COKE DEALER
MR. BROWN CAN MOO, AND THEY PUT HIM AWAY
THERE'S A WOCKET IN MY POCKET, AND I BLAME CIALIS
BOOMER THE TUMOR
Unfortunately, I haven't been able to sell any of these. I think it may be some sort of rights-issue thing.
Q: What's a work day in the life of Joe Konrath like?
Joe: I wake up early and make some eggs.
Then the smoke alarm goes off, because the eggs are burning because I fell asleep again.
Then I spend ten minutes explaining to the firemen that show up how I'll be more careful next time.
I go back to bed, and the next thing I know, it's around noon. Time for lunch. I want to make an egg sandwich, but I'm out of eggs. And bread. And pretty much everything except some sort of fruit that's been in the refrigerator forever and might be a lime. Or not. It may not even be fruit. So I put it back and think about cooking some pasta but that seems like a lot of work for just lunch, so I go take a nap.
Around three I get up, ready to start my work day, but first I need to eat something. Do pizza places deliver at three? I make a few calls. Nope, no one delivers before five.
I check the fridge. The lime thing is still there, but it looks like it moved from where I saw it last. How odd. Did it move by itself? I'm really hungry, so I decide to give it a try.
It's not a lime, because limes don't have bones.
When I finish eating, I sit down at my computer and write my daily quota, thirty pages.
Q: What's next for Joe Konrath?
Joe:This Spring, Carson's will be releasing my signature scent, called Nocturnal Emission. Available in parfum, eau du toilet, cologne, and roll on. I like the roll on. It tickles my armpits. My goal is to make enough money to buy Nebraska. Then I'll rename it Joebraska, and invite all of my friends to visit. We're going to have a big party in the state capital, Joemaha. You can come, if you want.
Q: Do you want to talk at all about your books?
Joe: Nope. Not really.

About the author

Joe Konrath has written over twenty novels in the Lt. Jacqueline "Jack" Daniels thriller series. They do not have to be read chronologically to be enjoyed, but the order is: Whiskey Sour, Bloody Mary, Rusty Nail, Dirty Martini, Shot of Tequila, Fuzzy Navel, Cherry Bomb, Dead On My Feet, Serial Killers Uncut (with Blake Crouch), Shaken, Stirred (with Blake Crouch), Dying Breath, Everybody Dies, Rum Runner, Last Call, White Russian, Shot Girl, Chaser, Old Fashioned, Bite Force, and Witch Brew. More coming soon.
Wow, that's a lot of Jack.
If you like your thrillers on the dark side, check out the Konrath Dark Thriller Collective, which includes the books The List, Origin, Afraid, Trapped, Endurance, Haunted House, Webcam, Disturb, What Happened To Lori, The Nine, Second Coming, and Close Your Eyes.
Joe also wrote the Stop A Murder mystery puzzle series, where you become the sleuth and solve brain teasers to try and catch a killer.
He also wrote the sci-fi trilogy, Timecaster, Timecaster Supersymmetry, and Timecaster Steampunk. Even if you don't think you like sci-fi, give them a try. They feature Joe's well-known characters from his other series, and are insane.
With Ann Voss Peterson he wrote the Codename: Chandler thrillers, including Flee, Spree, Three, Hit, Exposed, Naughty, Fix (with F. Paul Wilson), Rescue, and Free.
And, finally, he writes erotica under the pen name Melinda DuChamp, also with Ann Voss Peterson. Those books are probably too spicy for you, so only the brave and bold should seek them out.
Joe writes a lot. You should probably read everything.

- Reviewed in the United States on April 16, 2020Format: KindleVerified PurchaseKonrath has become my favorite author. I don't usually read consecutive books in a series. I like to skip around amongst some of my other favorites. But, I can't seem to leave this one. A side note - I hope Harry McGlade shows up in more stories. It's pretty obvious that his character is a good indication of how Konrath's demented mind works. Ever consider stand-up???
Murder, mayhem and hilarity. Can't beat it for a fun and exciting novel.
Keep on keepin on, dude!
- Reviewed in the United States on May 3, 2018Format: KindleVerified PurchaseIt's a shame that you weren't able to introduce these books at the same time as Jack's series. They would of helped in understanding the relationship between Jack and Phin. Worthy read and couldn't place the last installment to the Phin storyline.
- Reviewed in the United States on May 18, 2019Format: KindleVerified PurchaseI read all 3 books from this series and really loved them all. The characters are detailed in a way they're so easy to get to know and root for. And contrary to what some folks say, I love Harry's character. He's a breath of fresh air when everyone else is so serious. Yes he's a pig most of the time but he's vulnerable, lovable and full of good intentions alll the same. Would reccomend!!!
- Reviewed in the United States on June 29, 2020Format: KindleVerified PurchaseThis is the book I have been missing. It answers so many questions about the Jack Daniels series.
You can read other, professional reviews (pay close attention to Dave Barry), to get an idea of they think. Read the blurb to find out what it is about.
Harry's parts are hysterical. Jack and Phin come to an agreement. Didn't see that coming. Did any of the other books in Jackdanielsverse ever mention Phin had a brother? If one did, I missed it.
Phin has a brother. The brother, Hugo, if he hasn't been mentioned before, is exactly the type of family member you just don't talk about.
This has a high rating for both violence and funny. I think funny should be a higher score.
Can I review this twice and give more stars? Didn't think so.
- Reviewed in the United States on November 13, 2021Format: KindleVerified PurchaseScary, funny and heartbreaking. Phin has the scariest, evil brother ever. Couldn’t put this one down, so not much sleep, not to mention the nightmares.
- Reviewed in the United States on November 8, 2019Format: KindleVerified PurchasePhin and Pasha are still together. Phin has a brother Hugo and while in prison, Hugo is recruited to serve the Caucasian Nation. In order to advance in rank, he must kill people in a specified order. He gets out of prison, kills Kenny and kidnaps Pasha in order to get to Phin.
- Reviewed in the United States on May 16, 2018Format: KindleVerified PurchaseIt’s too bad that there so many errors in the book when a good proof reader could have made a difference.
- Reviewed in the United States on December 30, 2019Format: KindleVerified PurchaseThis short series is one of the best I've read in a long time that made me laugh out loud frequently! Harry is just funny!! I'll save the ending for those who haven't read it yet.

- WendyReviewed in the United Kingdom on August 18, 2018
1.0 out of 5 stars Violent and Brutal
Format: KindleVerified PurchaseI like the books about Jack Daniels and Phineas Troutt - not about Harry Mclade, those books are just plain irritating - and I wanted to find out what happened to Phineas. This book spends a lot of time on his extremely cruel and sadistic brother.
Maybe the storyline was good, but far too much time spent on the blood and gore - with vivid explanations. I'll be honest, this book gave me nightmares, even though I skipped most of the parts about Hugo.
Even trying not to read about Hugo, I read to the end as I wanted to know about Phineas.
Read only if you enjoy sadism, cruelty and torture - with graphic descriptions.
