Switchblade is going south—way down south, like a thong bikini in the Daytona Beach heat, where there’s no escaping the humidity. Half of these fifteen tales of vice and suspense take place in the sunshine state, the other half are the same potency of beloved filthy noir, from someplace else. Cult leaders, serial killers, private eyes, rock stars, cigarette boats, bare knuckle fighters, alligators, fugitives, strip clubs, mobsters, and government spooks; add in some stepped on lines of dirty white powder, and you’ve got Switchblade Issue Seven. Featuring the criminal minds of Nick Kolakowski, J.L. Boekestein, William R. Soldan, Mark Slade, Jack Bates, Stephen D. Rogers, Jon Zelazny, C.W. Balckwell, Arthur Evans, Bill Davidson, R. Daniel Lester, Bryce Wilson, Mathew X. Gomez, Scott Hallam, David Rachels, and Michael R. Colangelo.

A Capacious and Quintessential Guide Maxims: #1: Carry a Scholarly Book (at All Times) #12: Know Your Manet from Your Monet #14: Be Proficient in at Least One Classical Instrument #64: Learn to Recite Romantic-Era Poetry on Cue If you think you need a PhD in Greek and Roman philosophy from an Ivy League school to call yourself an intellectual, reconsider your supposition. While you may envy the initials that follow distinguished names of professors and the intellectual elite, it's not the mortar board and scholarly robes you need—it's the obscure esoterica. In this primer, you'll learn to walk the talk of the intelligentsia, leaving simpletons and pseudo-intellectuals in your dust. Inside How to Become an Intellectual, you will find the prodigious truths every self-respecting learned person lives by. This code of scholarly behavior allows aspiring high-brows like yourself to educate their unfortunate lessers, amaze their Mensa friends, and impress their fellow wise people—one distinguished bon mot at a time!
