Review

"There's no bullshit in a Joe Lansdale book. There's everything a good story needs, and nothing it doesn't.
Joe pulls up the truck, says, 'Get in the back, we're going for a ride.'You know it might get a little
scary and it might get a little crazy, but you get in, because you know in the end, it's going to
be a fun ride."--Christopher Moore, New York Times Bestselling Author of A Dirty Job and Fool

“Joe Lansdale is a master and Vanilla Ride proves it once again. Every page of this book brims with humor and character and most of all, kick ass story telling. Front to back, the satisfied smile on my face never went away.”--Michael Connelly

“Joe Lansdale is one of a kind. His Hap and Leonard novels should be read and treasured.”–James Swain, author of The Night Stalker

“Among the best fiction writers in America today, Joe Lansdale turns on the juice and cuts the damn thing loose. Enjoy the ride!”--Kinky Friedman, author of You Can Lead a Politician to Water, But You Can't Make Him Think


Product Description

"There's no bullshit in a Joe Lansdale book. There's everything a good story needs, and nothing it doesn't.
Joe pulls up the truck, says, 'Get in the back, we're going for a ride.'You know it might get a little
scary and it might get a little crazy, but you get in, because you know in the end, it's going to
be a fun ride."--Christopher Moore, New York Times Bestselling Author of A Dirty Job and Fool

In this Texas-sized thriller, Hap Collins and Leonard Pine—best friends, freelance troublemakers, and tough guys with good intentions—find themselves in the crosshairs of the Dixie Mafia.

Hap is an East Texas smart mouth with a weakness for southern women. Leonard is a gay, black veteran pining for a lost love. They’re not the makings of your typical dynamic duo, but never underestimate the power of a shared affinity for stirring up trouble and causing mayhem. When an old friend asks Leonard to rescue his daughter from an abusive, no-good drug dealer, he gladly agrees and, of course, invites Hap along for the fun. Even though the dealer may be lowly, he is on the bottom rung of the Dixie Mafia, and when Hap and Leonard come calling, the Mafia feels a little payback is in order. Cars crash, shotguns blast, and people die, but Hap and Leonard come out on top. Unfortunately for them, now they’re facing not only jail time but also the legendary—and lethal—Vanilla Ride, who is still out to claim the price on their heads. Full of twists and turns, gunfire and gaffes, this hilarious, rip-roaring novel will have readers turning the pages faster than a Texas tornado.

This review is from: Vanilla Ride (Audio CD)




Few can resist the antics of Hap and Leonard, so why try? Lansdale stories featuring this unlikely pair are always fast-paced, laugh provoking; in other words, thoroughly enjoyable.

Hap and Leonard are two good ol' East Texas boys who like to keep things clean. They simply cannot tolerate wrong doing, so no matter what cost or the jeopardy they're placing themselves in they're determined to set things right. A more unlikely pair of do-gooders would be hard to find. Hap's a white fellow with an eye for the ladies, while Leonard is a black homosexual. Thus, the chatter between the two is often hilarious thanks to Lansdale's sharp pen for humor.

With Vanilla Ride, their seventh adventure, the duo set out to rescue Marvin Hanson's granddaughter who's too close to a drug dealer. Hanson's had a go at it to no avail and said dealer is protected by some really tough guys. Time for Hap and Leonard.

They are successful but unaware from day one that they were upsetting the Dixie Mafia. Mafioso guys don't take any kind of interference lightly so they set out for some revenge, sending all sorts of unsavory characters after Hap and Leonard. When none of them are able to take the pair down the Mafia dispatches Vanilla Ride, a gorgeous assassin.

Phil Gigante does a wonderful job of bringing all these assorted types to life, and he must have had a ball doing it because it's some of the most fun listening to be found.

Enjoy!
