Michael's new book '46 Down' is now available from 12 Gauge Press. A link for ordering the book can be found on the home page of my site.
Trivia: Michael got the name for the book b/c he was answer 46 down in a crossword puzzle.

Yeah, I remember reading in an interview or something awhile back that he didn't wanna do any more books. Guess he changed his mind, or needed the money.  |

lol.
I've never actually had the fortune since I became a Madsen fan a few months ago, of being able to look around my bookstores (where I live) for any of his. Are they hard to find/easy to find? I suppose after his recent success they'd probably start becoming in higher demand.
And any reviews? Worth buying?

I bought 'Burning In Paradise' & 'Blessing of the Hounds' from his web site. Both are excellent! I recommend them highly. His first two are kinda hard to find, but sometimes you can find copies on ebay.

Hopefully the next time I'm in my second home, 46 down will be available.

You know what really sucks...
I've ventured to many of the book stores in the city I live in and none of them even have his books in stock in their warehouses. So I can't even order them from a bookstore.
Shortly I'll be ordering "Burning In Paradise", and "Blessing Of The Hounds" from the internet. I'd also like to get his new one.

Something to remember though is that if his publisher lists their releases with Ingrams (the main book distributor), as long as you have his name, the ISBN number of the book or the title of the book, you can order it. And for sales purposes, if you make a local store order it, you raise the chances of that book eventually being available on the shelves.
In this case, more important because Mike self published at least two of his books if not all three. In that, book stores are very hesitant to stock POD publishers (translates to non-traditional publishers). However, within the cost of his books and the fact that 12 Gauge Press offered as many as 5 hundred signed copies when they first came out, he's paid enough to have those books listed with the likes of Ingrams and other main distributors. This said, they should be available for order through your local stores.
JMO ;D

I got Michael's poetry book which contains all of his poems through Amazon. It took a while to come but it was worth it.

Well I'm stunned! Have just got back from the Mobile Library and lo and behold they had Michael's poetry book for me. Had to tell them I got it off Amazon as the library gave me no hope that they would get the book.
