HARD CASE CRIME CHECKLIST: PREVIEW BOOKS & EVERYTHING ELSE

A very big and sincere thank you to Charles Ardai, for all his help... This list will be updated when needed...

Preview book number 1
Artist - Greg Manchess ( art from FADE TO BLONDE )
Info - It has previews for the first six books.

Preview book number 2

Info - It has previews for books number 32 through 38. However, there is NO preview for book number 35.


ADVANCE READING COPIES.....
Info - I was planning a checklist for these, but I don't know which books had ARC's made for them.


REPRINTS by Titan / Random House.....
Info - They are the same size as the original mass market paperbacks. Artwork is also the same for the reprinted titles. However, I think the ISBN's are different. NOTE: The reprint for SOMEBODY OWES ME MONEY is TRADE paperback size.

MISC HARD CASE CRIME ITEMS.....

Hard Case Crime catalogs

Hard Case Crime bookmarks

I have NO idea how many different items where made, or how they were distributed.




AUDIO CDs.....
Several HARD CASE CRIME titles have been released on compact disc ( by various companies ).




HAVEN TV SERIES.....
The HAVEN cable tv show is loosely based on THE COLORADO KID ( by Stephen King ).

Mr. Ardai has written some episodes and is also one of the producers.

HAVEN has been released on region one DVD ( and BLU-RAY ) by Eone.


*COLORADO KID HARDcover* - I believe a HARDcover version of Stephen King's THE COLORADO KID was published in England ( AFTER the HCC version ). It has NOTHING to do with HARD CASE CRIME, but I still wanted to mention it.
