The Black Lizard Big Book of Black Mask Stories

I haven't read this book yet, as it just arrived in the mail yesterday. But I was really excited for it because I'm a huge fan of pulp detective fiction. Especially Dashiell Hammett, and this book includes The Maltese Falcon as it was originally published in Black Mask.

The book has over 1100 pages, so it will definitely keep me busy for a while. If you're interested in noir, here's the list of stories and novels included.
