My dad is a huge JDM fan and recommended the McGee books when I told him what I was reading. He has a bunch of the paperbacks downstairs, vintage covers and all. After I'm finished with Marlowe I think I'll pick them up.

You should definitely do this. John D. is great. I read five in a row once. (You do start to notice his ticks at that point--I think he used the term "sybaritic bathtub" in every single one).
