About this product

Product Information

In Edgar Award winner Joe R. Lansdale's newest Hap and Leonard story collection, the boys are back with more righteous ass-kickings, highly improbable adventures, and disastrous fishing trips. These never before collected tales showcase the popular not-so dynamic duo who are little bit older, but not a whole lot wiser - Hap and Leonard were truly born for trouble. When you meet him, Hap Collins seems like just a good ol' boy. But even in his misspent youth, his best pal was Leonard Pine: black, gay, and the ultimate outsider. Together, they have sort of found their way as partners in crime-solving - and at least as often, as hired muscle. As Hap wrestles with his new identity as a husband and father, and Leonard finds love in a long-term relationship, the boys continue their crime-solving shenanigans. They grapple with a stolen stuffed dog, uncover the sordid secret of a missing bookmobile, compete in a warped version of the Most Dangerous Game, regroup after Hap's visit to the psycho

Reviews
Advance Praise for Born for Trouble "Joe Lansdale's compassion and humanity have touched thousands of readers, me included, right where we live. Of all his vivid and lived-in characters, none are as beloved as Hap and Leonard, and this new collection will delight Hap and Leonard fans all over the world." --Lewis Shiner, author of Glimpses and Frontera Praise for Joe R. Lansdale "A folklorist's eye for telling detail and a front-porch raconteur's sense of pace." -- New York Times Book Review "An American original." --Joe Hill, author of Heart-Shaped Box "A terrifically gifted storyteller." -- Washington Post Book Review No one currently working the field demonstrates more convincingly and joyously the deep affinity between pulp fiction and the American tall tale." -- Kirkus "Like gold standard writers Elmore Leonard and the late Donald Westlake, Joe R. Lansdale is one of the more versatile writers in America. -- Los Angeles Times "Lansdale's been hailed, at varying points in his career, as the new Flannery O'Connor, William Faulkner-gone-madder, and the last surviving splatterpunk . . . sanctified in the blood of the walking Western dead and righteously readable." -- Austin Chronicle "While Lansdale's work is as varied as the regions of Texas, there is one common link through all of it: his brilliant storytelling." -- Grimdark Magazine Praise for the Hap and Leonard collections [STARRED REVIEW] "Last seen in the novel Honky Tonk Samurai, Lansdale's incomparable East Texas crime fighting duo show their chops in this remarkable story collection." -- Publishers Weekly "Full of humor, gritty drama, and insightful observations, the five stories in this rewarding collection from Edgar winner Lansdale (The Elephant of Surprise) concentrate on the early years of his two mismatched East Texas private eyes: Hap Collins, a straight, white liberal; and Leonard Pine, a gay, black conservative." --Publishers Weekly "You leave this book hungry, both for food and to start the whole series all over again, live through it one more time, maybe just live there a while." --Stephen Graham Jones, author of Mongrels and The Only Good Indians "The dialogue throughout is worth the price of admission, not as stylized as Elmore Leonard's but laden with the same irresistible combination of relaxed badinage and playful threats that sometimes spiral into serious consequences while still remaining playful." --Kirkus " Of Mice and Minestrone is enthralling storytelling that engages readers with dashes of simple wisdom and hard truth." -- Fort Worth Weekly "Amply filled with humor, wisdom, and heart . . . An excellent addition to a great collection." --Manhattan Book Review "These stories evoke the likes of Elmore Leonard, and manage to feel so reflective that one can almost taste the food." -- Green Man Review "An absolute treasure trove for Hap and Leonard fans. Going back to the beginning only deepens our love and appreciation for these guys. This collection proves once again why Joe Lansdale is one of our very best." --Ace Atkins, New York Times Bestselling author of The Shameless "Compelling. Hilarious. Poignant." -- NY Journal of Books "East Texas charm, profane wit, and strong characterization, with enough snappy dialogue to keep a smile on your face . . . excellent entertainment, edge-of-your-seat action one minute, gut-busting humor." -- Adventures in Genre Fiction, Praise for Joe R. Lansdale "A folklorist's eye for telling detail and a front-porch raconteur's sense of pace." -- New York Times Book Review "An American original." --Joe Hill, author of Heart-Shaped Box "A terrifically gifted storyteller." -- Washington Post Book Review No one currently working the field demonstrates more convincingly and joyously the deep affinity between pulp fiction and the American tall tale." -- Kirkus "Like gold standard writers Elmore Leonard and the late Donald Westlake, Joe R.

The book is in perfect condition, brand new, and is exactly as described. This item is difficult to find here, and the seller priced it very reasonably. It shipped from the UK to Canada, and unfortunately took a little longer to arrive than the seller hoped, but it was shipped less than 24 hours after I purchased. When I contacted the seller, they were very responsive and helpful. I would not hesitate to purchase from this seller again. Definitely recommend!
