"Noah Lukeman, one of the top literary agents in New York, gave writers a great gift."--James Frey (regarding The Plot Thickens)"This will certainly help writers of any kind defeat rejection and possibly score."--Writers.com (regarding The First Five Pages)Many books have been written about the query letter. But few have been written by literary agents, who receive thousands of queries each year and who grapple with them on a daily basis. Even fewer books have been written by literary agents who are currently active, who are willing to write from the trenches and offer their perspective on why they reject query letters, and why they accept them. During his last 14 years as a literary agent, New York literary agent Noah Lukeman, President of Lukeman Literary Management Ltd and author of three critically-acclaimed books on the craft of writing, has read thousands of query letters. Now, for the first time, he offers his insights on the query letter, sharing an insider's perspective, giving insights and practical tips about what works and what doesnt. "Lukemans advice is practicaland often entails multiple, time-consuming stepswithout a hint of the flakiness that creeps into many writing guides."--Publishers Weekly (regarding The Plot Thickens)
