Rainer Jancise autobiograafiline raamat “Metro Luminal” vaatleb samanimelise ansambli sundi ja kujunemist labi kolme aastakumne. Vaatluse all on 1980ndate aastate lopu M. S. Gorbatsovi aegne Noukogude Liit, 90ndate metalliari aegne Eesti ning muteerunud tanapaevane Eesti Euroopa osana. Naeme autori isikliku loomingulise maailma vormumist ning kunstniku kaekirja teket. Tegelaskujudena jooksevad labi varvikad isiksused soprade, tuttavate ja lahkunute naol, kellest nii monedki on tuntud avaliku elu tegelased. Raamatut on uritatud kirjutada, mitte niivord autobiograafiana, kui lennuka ja humoorikate detailiderohke uleuldisema sisekaemusena, mis motestab kaesolevat hetke ning elu laiemalt. Autor puuab mitmekulgselt avada oma heliloomingu ja pillimangu telgitaguseid, sealjuures mitte jaada tuimaks ning spetsiifiliseks, vaid pigem motestada koik uheks kultuuriliseks tervikuks, millest tuksub labi ajastu vaim ning mille soontes voolab relvitu kunstniku mass vaikekodanliku mugavuse vastu. Antud teos taiustab Eesti muusikaajaloo mosaiiki lisades teistsuguseid vaateid juba olemasolevatele samateemalistele raamatutele. Kindlasti ei saa alahinnata endale muusiku vande andnud autori pohjalikke teadmisi ja laialdast silmaringi muusikas, kogemuste kaudu distantsilt vaadelduna ka teatud maaral eneseiroonilist lahenemist. Kahtlemata ei ole voimalik ennast naha objektiivselt, samas on meie koigi maailm vaid meie endi moistmisvoime piiridesse mahtuv fiktsioon.

Jorma Hedlund on kuritegevusega tegelikult lopparve teinud. Aga see sularahaveok naib loobumiseks liiga ahvatlev. Viimane roov ja siis aitab. Algul kulgeb koik plaaniparaselt, aga siis laheb miski vaga viltu ja Jorma peab pogenema. Samal ajal puuab Jorma sober Danny Katz valja uurida, mis juhtus tema kunagise narkodiileri Ramoni ja tolle elukaaslase Jennyga. Kuidas sai Ramon akitselt suure koguse uimasteid? Ja kes Jenny oieti on? Jaljed viivad algul Stockholmi pornoarisse ja seejarel taiesti ootamatusse suunda, kusjuures keegi puuab iga hinna eest takistada Katzil toe jalile jouda.Danny Katzi ponevike teine raamat maalib toetruu pildi Stocholmi hamarast allilmast, millega vanad sobrad Katz, Jorma ja Eva on liigagi tuttavad.2015. aastal ilmus Carl-Johan Vallgreni noir-ponevike sarja esimene raamat „Varjukuju”.
