Richard Castle, The Writer

Like most people, who like TV shows, I like a good police drama with a touch of comedy added to its clue finding suspense.  The TV show Castle really hits the spot when I am looking for that type of entertainment.  Embarrassing, some might would think, but I have seen every episode of Castle, and love the characters so much that I wanted to see if the books (New Wave, Heat Rises, and Naked Heat) from the TV show were as entertaining.  I found them to be as good as I was hoping they would be, but who actually wrote them?  The books are tagged with by Richard Castle on them. Does ABC think that humanity just fell of the turnip truck?  Maybe I will have to give ABC half credit on that one because I am sure there are a lot of people who think Richard Castle, the TV character, actually wrote the books.  How would you like to be a ghost writer, and have a book on the New York Times best-selling list, and no one knows who you are?  That would be a total “Why Me” situation.  I am sure ABC has no intent on telling who wrote the books by Richard Castle.  That really makes me think.  Are we sure that the popular book’s that we read are actually written by whose name is on the cover?  Hell, for all you know, I might not even be Hank Epstein, but if I were a ghost writer I am sure there are flashier names that I could pick from.
