A Crow's Wisp

Joe Monninger's work has appeared in American Heritage, Scientific American, Reader's Digest, Glamour, The Boston Globe, Sports Illustrated and Ellery Queen, among other publications. Over his 30 year writing journey through multiple genres in fiction, nonfiction, and young adult novels, Monninger has attracted significant praise: Pulitzer Prize-winning critic Richard Eder, reviewing Monninger's 1991 novel The Viper Tree, compared him to renowned author Graham Greene; in 2007, NPR's Bill Littlefield said Monninger's historical boxing book, Two Ton, deserves a spot among that sport's classic literature.
