Sometimes, it's a job for a Dick.Sol the Wise Guy has stayed out of Hornytown for a hot minute. But when a sexy sheyd sweeps into his office saying she's been framed for murder, well, sometimes a shmendrick's gotta step up to the task.This silly, satirical, romp through the Devil's corner of D.C. prompts the question of what we might repair, with a little Chutzpah."e;The plot is engaging, there are twists, yet everything holds up. The characters have a lot of emotional depth (human and demon alike) and there are moments of profound understanding and serious reverence. Worth your time even if you've read plenty of this subgenre."e; —Daniel Haeusser, contributing reviewer, Skiffy & Fanty"e;Hornytown Chutzpah, like a good noir movie, keeps the pace lean and mean and knows when to move along the plot so that the story doesn't flag. Like a screwball comedy, it knows exactly when to hit the comedy beats and when to become more serious. And it knows when to hit you in the heart and soul."e; —Paul Weimer, Multi Hugo Award winning genre writer, nerds of a feather, flock together"e;With verve, razor-sharp wit, and plenty of heart, Hornytown Chutzpah peels back the layers of hell (well, its DC-adjacent outpost) to expose the messy foibles of humanity. Timely, compulsively readable, and just plain fun."e; —P. H. Low, Ignyte, Locus, and Rhysling nominated author of These Deathless Shores"e;A detective goes to Hell. Literally. What a wild romp! I really enjoyed Hiller's novella, right down to the very potent chicken soup. For people who love noir, detective stories, and the occasional Pit stop, this is for you."e; —Joyce Chng, Hugo-winning author of the Fire Heart duology"e;Wonderfully fun! Hornytown Chutzpah swaps out Virgil for a mouthy private dick to lead you through hell. A visceral underworldly tale, and an unforgettable voice."e; —Meg Elison, author of Foundling Fathers"e;Buckle up for a zany romp through the outskirts of hell. Andrew Hiller's Hornytown Chutzpah mixes together urban fantasy, noir murder mystery, and a big splash of Jewish humor into a wildly imaginative story. It's bonkers in the best possible way."e; —Jo Miles, author of Warped State"e;This glossary is fantastic. I love it!"e; —Jennifer Hudak, author of the Nebula finalist Witch Trap
