RIP Mr. Leonard...

I haven't read any of his books yet, have watched movies based on his books, those were pretty much great movies.

I think I'll have to visit the library. Any recommendations on what book to start with?

try get shorty or killshot or just about anything he wrote

if you watch the fx show justified its based on some of his earlier western novels

Elmore Leonard books are an easy read and like i said earlier the dialogue is just spot on and always entertaining
