When a series takes on its own life

By

Robert B Parker's LullabyI was asked by Kings River Life to write an article about writers who take over a series for other writers. It sounded like a fun assignment, but I really had no idea. Once I started doing research, I realized how often this happens. It became necessary to start leaving out examples, but the five that ended up in the article are blockbusters, including Dick Francis, Robert Ludlum, Robert B. Parker, Lawrence Sanders, and Mickey Spillane.

If you love crime fiction, you’re sure to have read one of these authors and probably more. Did you know that Robert B. Parker even wrote two novels for another bestseller? Find out who on Kings River Life.

About Terry

I started out as a skip tracer. Just in case you don’t know, that’s the guy who finds the people who don’t want to be found. It was the little things—getting paid to lie—that made skip tracing the fun part of the job.

Those years of chasing deadbeats taught me many valuable life lessons, such as liars come from all walks of life, and always keep your car in the garage.
