"...a collection of early stories, experiments and exercises, published and unpublished"

This book is, in the author's words, "...a collection of early stories, experiments and exercises, published and unpublished." A companion volume of sorts to a Fistful of Stories, it gives further insight into Lansdale's influences and the evolution of his writing style--at times, you can almost feel Lansdale learning his lessons, finding his own voice, honing the enviable skills that make him the fine writer he is today. Lansdale's colorful introductions are almost worth the price of admission themselves--the preface to "The Junkyard," where Lansdale reminisces about his father, is especially moving. These factors, combined with attractive packaging, make this intriguing volume a "must have" for fans of this master of suspense.

Highly Sought After Lansdale Item

Collection of early and rare Lansdale stories assembled by a small press intended for die-hard fans only. Novices, please first check out the Drive-In trilogy and the Hap and Leonard series and then come back to this. A beautifully published cloth woven hardcover with a wonderfully illustrated dust jacket and a red ribbon bookmark.

Lansdale wrote an introduction for each of these rare uncollected stories, some are good, some bad... as the title says.

I would pay good money just for the introductions to the stories. Lansdale has a very funny and introspective outlook on life and the publishing inductry and anything else he writes about. His folk humor shines here as he showcases his early works for those of us who care.
