About this series
Dick Richards finds himself stranded—not just on a dead-magic world—but a dying one. An endless wind scours the plains under a bleak, gray sky; the survivors of a centuries-old calamity eke a living in the husks of hollow cities; and an offbeat religion offers the tantalizing hint of a new source of power.
As the spells which keep him alive fade, Dick questions whether to compromise the values he has left in order to survive.

"A fun and quirky adventure. Chris Wong Sick Hong is an author to watch!" - Patricia Briggs Does saving the world count if you do it out of spite? They call me a dick because I am one: Dick Richards, Private Eye. Tour guides and politicians up for reelection crow about how Tipton’s “majestic skyscrapers paint a living mosaic of light against the edges of space,” blissfully ignorant of the Under seeping through society’s cracks like fluorescent mold. Elves, dwarves, superheroes…everyone’s got secrets and what’s a little blackmail among associates? That’s just life. And while there isn’t enough cash in the universe to pay for knight-in-shining-armor suicide missions, there are lines. Tap dance across those—firebomb my apartment and kill my friends—and now it’s personal. Some compare me to Harry Harrison’s Stainless Steel Rat or Jim Butcher’s Harry Dresden. An AI thinks I’m like Tom Rob Smith’s Child 44. One Tom, one Dick, two-and-a-half Harrys. The after-school special damn near writes itself. But do you really need to be told what to think? Buy or don't. I don't have time to babysit. ____________________________________________________________ Join Dick Richards on his next adventure! The 2nd part of the series, Dick Richards: Planeswalker is now available as an ebook. Readers' reviews “Chris Wong Sick Hong knows his craft well and strikes a daring pose with DICK RICHARDS, PRIVATE EYE. Entertaining, informed and informing, humor and action driven, this Noir Cyberpunk adventure is sure to thrill and entertain. With tinges of Harrison’s Stainless Steel Rat and Gibson’s Burning Chrome, DICK RICHARDS forges a unique alloy of fantasy, magic, and science into an engaging and entertaining story.” - Kevin Noel Olson, author of TOCSIN CODEX "This is such a fun, quirky book. So many authors do the noir style badly, but Chris absolutely nails it. In a futuristic world that's like Blade Runner with elves, a jaded private detective gets drawn into a case that becomes increasingly dangerous...and increasingly personal." - 5 star review on Goodreads "I loved this book from start to finish. The world is engaging, the characters are colorful and interesting. The plot is engaging and dynamic. If you are a fan of the sci-fi genre, this is a great book to read." - 5 star review on Amazon "I definitely recommend this to anyone looking for a fresh take on the traditional detective/mystery story." - 4 star review on Amazon
