Finally back in print!
The Washington Post review, quoted above, says it better than I can hope to. This is a really great book. As the review says, "It is one of the great American novels. Try to find it." Unfortunately, you've always had to dig to find this book. As I write this, it's been out of print for eight or nine years. If you were not already familiar with the sf/fantasy/horror/fantastic/genre scene ...

Wake Up and Smell the Cartoons of Shannon Wheeler

Shannon Wheeler

Mojo Press, 1997

If you've ever had one cup too many.........
If you like witty, sarcastic, smart humor, you will love Shannon Wheeler. This book is so funny-that I loaned it to my friends and they loved it. Wheeler's artistic work exudes a kind of neurotic energy that we've all experienced and relate to,a definite must buy.

Morgan Hawke

Mojo Castle Press, 2008

Too good!
Yeah! This is the reason why I love Morgan Hawke. Love her stories, and love her books. If you love stories about vampires and supernaturals, this is it. Great "hot" erotic scenes. I loved the witty remarks. A definite must add to the collection.

The Blueberry Saga: Confederate Gold

Mojo Press, 1996

a bargain, yet a pity it's printed in b&w and
With a written essay to introduce the Blueberry Sage so far and a two-page bio of the writer and the artist respectively other than the additional 14-page story " three black stones", this paperback collection of Mr Moebius' masterpiece is a must-have for both new and die-hard fans alike. Yet the big drawback of this book is that it's considerably downsized to 7><9 inches and printed in B & ...

Dead Heat

Mojo Press, 1996

Wild at Heart
Dead Heat is a truck full of dynamite careening through a narrow tunnel with land mines on either side. It is a wild and violent ride, full of both brilliant and brutal prose, but Del Stone, Jr., never lets the story get out of control. I was never a big fan of Zombie movies but I loved this book. The lead character, Hitch, IS a zombie, but a zombie with a twist. He still has his intellect. ...

Moorcock on Jesus
SPOILER WARNING!! Many people say this book is a satire, but I disagree. This book is dead serious! If one studies theology (as I have done), one will find out that everything we know about the beginning of Christianity is built on guesses. Christianity is one of the major religious traditions in the world, but we hardly know how it started. As Moorcock explains in this book, all our knowledge ...

Indian Lover: Sam Houston & the Cherokees

Jack Jackson

Mojo Press, 1999

A Masterpiece...Read 'em all!
I had the pleasure to meet Jack Jackson before his death and to talk with him about Sam Houston and the Cherokees as well as his other opus Comanche Moon. My own family was from the Houston Valley in Tennessee, and my Great Grandmother was Cherokee, so I had my own take on Mr. Houston. Jack was patient enough to listen to my own rambling and give me some guidance on some little known tomes that ...

Weird Business

Mojo Press, 1995

A wide-ranging, provocative collection
Often, when one fails to understand the content of something, it is easiest to *blame the content*. "Weird Business" readers will have to do some thinkin' work along with the free shocks -- but the pleasures and terrors are worth it. This eclectic collection, boasting gems like "Hellbound Train," and -- yes -- "Gorilla Gunslinger," covers a range of tones and styles. Where else can you ...

Atomic Chili: The Illustrated Joe R. Lansdale

2 reviews

Mojo Press, 1997

Great stuff!!
Anything Joe R. Lansdale puts out is one more thing the public just may see and finally get. This guys stories should be savored in whatever form it comes out in. Joe's work is so visual that doing comics of his earlier short story work makes alot of sense. Love the whole design of this book.

Gemini Mojo Press, 2004

An Incredible Read!
The story of Mataya (Mattie) Black Hawk is beautiful, heart-touching, and engrossing. We get to see Mattie mature and grow, face her fears, and even fall in love. Mattie is an amazing character that anyone can relate to and love. Mattie has a secret, a secret to her past that no one (not even her best friends) knows of, except Tykota, who is her uncle and her guardian, that is, until Jarek ...

Joe R. Lansdale

Mojo Press, 1999

Almost-classic Lansdale
If you know Lansdale's work, then you know what pushes his buttons as a writer: violence, humor, and inequality in the world. This graphic novel (nicely illustrated by Sam Glanzman) looks like a straight Western, but it's a violent, fuuny, and angry novel about racism. Some of the characters are a bit too broad -- so evil you can barely look at them as real -- and the ending is just so OUT ...
