The Deadly Streets

Terrifying tales of teenage gangs and life on the mean streets from the multiple award-winning author of A Boy and His Dog. Remember Charles Bronson stalking the streets of New York blowing holes in muggers in Death Wish? Remember Glenn Ford standing off the vicious juvenile delinquents in Blackboard Jungle? Well, it is more than fifty years and two different worlds from 1955 to now. And something the author of these stories knows that you are scared to admit is that reality and fantasy have flipflopped. They have switched places. The stories that scare you today are the ones about rapists and thugs, psychos who will carve you for a dollar and hypes who will bust your head to get fixed. Glenn Fords world was yesterday, and Bronsons is today. And in the stalking midnight of this book, one of Americas top writers, Harlan Ellison, invades the shadows of both!
