I've just borrowed 'The Book With No Name' & 'The Devil's Graveyard' by 'Anonymous' from my library (there is another book called 'The Eye Of The Moon' by same), as the blurb makes them of interest. On the copyright page, it's copyrighted to the pseudonym 'The Bourbon Kid'. The books are published by Michael O' Mara Books Ltd.
My question is, does anyone know who 'The Bourbon Kid' is? Is it a complete unknown or a known author 'slumming it'?.

I don't know if the Bourbon Kid is anyone we might know, but the whole thing was drummed up via a clever internet advertising strategy - the Book With No Name, written by Anonymous, and anyone who reads it dies. I was lent it by a friend who was hugely enthusiastic, but I found it repetitive dross, to be honest. For a chapter or two it seems promising, but after a while I began to wonder if there'd been a printing error and I was reading the same four chapters over and again... The thing was incredibly popular, but then so is Twilight.

Nope, still here - but then I've only read a chapter, still got to finish Shaun Hutson - Body Count. Thanks for the info Lemming & no I don't understand Twishite either.
