WERE THEY HEROES...OR PUNKS?

The Fourth of July dawned hot and ominous. The city was steaming-ready to go off like a string of firecrackers. The big rumble was on.

It would take Papa Arnold's Family far from their Brooklyn turf. Before the night was over they would have to fight their way home. They would seek out-and find-the city's dangers, its violence, its mysteries. They would rape and kill. But above all, they would stick together.

They were brothers. The Family was the only family they had.

FLESH AND IRON

This is the story of Ace Jones, a man whose flesh and soul have grown to the iron of the souped-up heaps that are his whole life.

There's a woman named Sandy, who sees in Ace the same fever that burned out her husband, and the same wild attraction that made her love him.

And there's Sandy's brother-in-law, who respects Ace almost as deeply as he hates him.

Theirs is the special world of the stock-car racers-filled with the stench of burning rubber, the tearing shriek of metal against metal. But the fire inside them will be felt by anyone who has ever known the corroding urge to get ahead of the man in front...

Marihuana - William Irish

A cheap and evil girl sets a hopped-up killer against a city.

"...roaming the streets...a menace, a living death, to anyone that crosses his path."

MARIHUANA turns weak King Turner into a deadly weapon, a conscienceless killer with no more human feeling than a hooded cobra or a mad dog. Turner is the novice taken along to a "ranch" to blaze weed; his reactions to the drug were intended to provide comedy for his veteran-smoker companions. Then Turner gets his hands on a knife-and a gun!
