Dan Napolitano

Dan Napolitano, a reader of John Dickson Carr for three decades, is also a noted collector of Carr first printings and other collectible books. He published his first crime-fiction article, concerning Conan Doyle, as a student in the 1990s, but only began writing professionally about Carr as the editor of Crippen & Landru's 2022's collection, The Kindling Spark: Early Tales of Mystery, Horror, and Adventure by John Dickson Carr. Napolitano is the editor of a Crippen & Landru follow-up collection that will include more previously unknown and unpublished fiction by Carr.
