New Elmore Leonard - Eight chapters online now

Come this May, the new Elmore Leonard novel hits store shelves. Road Dogs brings together three characters from three earlier novels. Jack Foley is the "hero" of Out of Sight, portrayed brilliantly in the movie of the same name. Dawn Navarro starred in Riding the Rap and the third returnee is Cuando Rey from LaBrava. Now, I haven't read the latter two books so I don't know those characters. But the book is Elmore Leonard. What's not to like?

Here's something you can REALLY like. The first eight chapters are now available online over at Entertainment Weekly. Boo-yeah! But wait! There's more. The publisher is making these chapters available as part of a contest to see who can come up with the best fan-produced book trailer. How synergistic is that? Details on the contest here.

How great did you Tuesday just become?
