Descriptions, Reviews, etc.

Description: From the Edgar-winning author of "The Bottoms" comes a funny, violent, testosterone-laden, and satisfying new novel. The repartee between Hap and Leonard tramples all over any standard of political correctness, but it's full of wit and outrageously entertaining.

Review Quotes: "The most consistently original and originally visceral writer the great state of Texas (or any other state for that matter) has seen in a score of flashpoint summers."--Austin Chronicle

"Lansdale gets better with each book."--Rocky Mountain News

"A storyteller in the great American tradition of Ambrose Bierce and Mark Twain."--The Boston Globe "Lansdale reaches the reader on a gut level. . . . A terrific writer."--Ellery Queen's Mystery Magazine "Lansdale is a storyteller in the Texas tradition of outrageousness . . . but amped up to about 100,000 watts."--Houston Chronicle "One of publishing's best kept secrets."--Dallas Morning News "Hap and Leonard function as a sort of Holmes and Watson -- if Holmes and Watson had had more lusty appetites and less refined educations and spent their lives in east Texas. . . . Not only funny, but also slyly offer acute commentary on matters of race, friendship and love in small-town America."--The New York Times "Lansdale has a zest for storytelling and a gimlet eye for detail."--Entertainment Weekly "As funny as all get out."--Ft. Lauderdale Sun-Sentinel
