Just what I needed after finishing off Geoffrey Ashe's Hazard and Somerset #6: Criminal Past. ( ) Joe Lansdale pisses me off. I don't think the man is capable of writing anything less than a thoroughly entertaining, fun book. Seriously. If he's written a stinker, I haven't read it yet. And this entry into the Hap and Leonard canon is no exception. The more I read of these two, the more I wish someone at HBO would clue in and greenlight a series based on them. I can't really provide any more praise about this series than I already have, except to say, if you haven't yet experienced Hap Collins and Leonard Pine, well then, you're missing out and you should correct that error right quick. In this particular story, a short one, the two are, as usual, hired on for a simple job that spirals out to something bigger and uglier. Don't look for major changes here, you won't get them. But Lansdale seems to be leading to something from here. This, to me at least, feels like a bit of a set up for something down the road. Anyway, go a read yourself some Lansdale. I don't care what, because it doesn't matter. He can't write anything that isn't entertaining. I read this novella as a part of my library's Blind Date with a Book" program. The writing was crude but humorous. The characters were interesting but being a novella, they weren't very well developed. There was obviously a prior storyline that I missed out on by not reading the series. However, I enjoyed the novella enough to go back and try to read the series to catch up." This is like a firework - brilliant, but much too short lived! Love me the Hap and Leonard! Their relationship, and dialogue, are almost more important to me than the story itself! I could eat books like this quicker than Leonard eats his precious vanilla cookies! I wish we could get one of these a year! Please Mr. Lansdale? nessuna recensione | aggiungi una recensione

HTML: Dead Aim marks the always welcome return of Joe R. Lansdale's most enduring fictional creations: Hap Collins and Leonard Pine. The story begins simply enough when the two agree to provide protection for a woman harassed by her violent, soon-to-be-ex husband. But, when a protracted stakeout ends in a lethal shooting and a pair of moldering corpses turn up in an otherwise deserted trailer, the nature of this "routine" assignment changes dramatically. The ensuing investigation unearths a complex web of lies, duplicity, and hidden agendas that leads from an upscale Texas law firm to the world of organized crime, culminating in the kind of explosive, anything-can-happen confrontation that only Joe Lansdale could create. .Non sono state trovate descrizioni di biblioteche |
