An encyclopedic site

If you read Italian, you might enjoy the Jazz al Nero blog. The biography and bibliography section includes entries about writers whose names you've seen here (Yasmina Khadra, Petros Markaris, Ian Rankin, et al.), plus many more (Léo Malet, Mickey Spillane, Ellis Peters, Cornell Woolrich, etc.). Even if you don't read Italian, it's fun to see all those names on one list.

The entries are good places to pick up basic information on writers about whom you may be curious -- and to practice your Italian.
