So I was yesterday years old when I learned that the ding “Pink Cadillac” is actually NOT about a car. 😳

Thanks, @briankeene, for warping yet another piece of my childhood. 😜😘

My review: ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

"Every single one of the short stories in this collection is an absolute gem, & there's enough variety...science-fiction, fantasy, noir, et al...to satisfy just about everyone's tastes!"

I think @stephenking.bsky.social’s FROM A BUICK 8 is one of the most engaging, well-crafted, and accessible cosmic horror stories of modern cosmic horror fiction.

Me: “I know that look. Who’s about to have a bad day?”

Keene: “A writer who better check himself.”

Me: “Who?”

Keene: “Nobody you know. Crime writer.”

Me: “So your Batmaning multiple genres now?”

Keene: <shrugs>

Me: “This is not how retirement works, Keene.”
