What author(s) would you like to see have a "Maelstrom"-type line?

[Sock Monkey]

I've been thinking about the author-specific imprints I've seen pop up lately. Bryan Smith is getting a line from Thunderstorm and Brian Keene has had one for a few years. I really like the idea of the Maelstrom line (an annual release of 1 novel by Keene, 1 novella by Keene and 1 book by an author that Keene likes) and was wondering what other authors would people like to see have a "Maelstrom"-type line?

Of course, everybody would love Stephen King, so let's get that one out of the way. But what about other authors? My top three picks would be:

1. Kealan Patrick Burke
2. Joe Lansdale
3. Jack Ketchum


Any other suggestions?

Other than Stephen King? I would probably vote for Clive Barker.

You know I completely forgot about Barker. Good choice!

Ray Garton and Edward Lee. Imagine the carnage.

I would add Joe Hill and Richard Laymon.

How about McCammon...

Kealan Patrick Burke for sure, as well as Greg F. Gifune, John Little, Norman Prentiss, and CD's own Brian James Freeman
