Lansdale, Joe R. Captains Outrageous . New York: Mysterious Press, 2003. 336 pp.
Can you say "Gonzo?" Lansdale has long been one of my favourite authors. I first got to know him through his horror stuff, particularly The Drive-In and The Drive-In 2 . Those were way over the top. Over the years, I've read other novels and mostly short fiction in the genre. However, the last number of years he seems to be concentrating on crime/mystery at novel length. As well as a bunch of stand-alones (for which he should be praised) he does have a series of novels featuring Texas good-old-boy Hap Collins and his buddy, a gay black man by the name of Leonard Pine. Let's just say Hap might be a little more liberal than your typical redneck. Anyways, the series is definately gonzo crime fiction at it's best with the snarky duo having a series of bizarre misadventures over the last 4 or 5 novels.
Then comes Captains Outrageous . A spicy concoction of a daring rescue, an ill-fated cruise ship experience, stranded in Mexico, caught between a beautiful woman of doubtful morals and a gangster and finally an extended revenge set piece. Does it all hold together? Not really. On a few levels I was a bit disappointed with this one. First of all, the plot was a bit more random and scattered that usual, never quite deciding what kind of story this is. Lansdale always teeters between farce and tragedy, but the two co-existed here very shakily. Part of that is tone. Hap and Leonard have always been smug, edgy and flippant, with a hard bitterness and sarcasm propelling their relationship, but this was the first of the novels where they really don't seem that likeable. And to be frank, this kind of revenge tale really depends on the characters doing the venging being a bit more sympathetic. To echo my remarks a few years ago on

Dead Folks
Joe R. Lansdale and Timothy Truman
The cult favorite team of Joe R. Lansdale and Timothy Truman are back together for the first time in years bringing all the hilarious insanity and violence that made their Jonah Hex series modern classics. Except this time the kid gloves are off as they deliver more mayhem, death, and of course zombies, per page than any other book on the market! Wayne is a bounty hunter, but he has the bad luck to be one in the middle of a desert filled with the undead. But he has to bring in his man if he wants to get paid and the dead folks best get out of his way if they know what's good for 'em. But of course, being dead, they don't. Joe Lansdale's over-the-top dialogue and Truman's crisp lines make this book a must read for fans of Garth Ennis and Warren Ellis work, if you are not already a convert to the church of Lansdale.
Lansdale and Truman's Dead Folks will be available in March 2003 at your local comic shop. Please support your local stores. If you can't find Dead Folks locally, you may order it from our direct sales agent

"Sunset and Sawdust"
(reviewed by Judi Clark APR 23, 2004) Joe Lansdale has a reputation for "mojo storytelling," which he manages to pull off in a wide assortment of genre. Near as I can tell "mojo storytelling" means that the author works magic on us; if so, then his bag of tricks includes lots of laugh-out-loud vernicular, memorable characters and non-stop quirky action. But what makes his stuff so endearing, at least to me, is his secret ingredient sleuth series Sunset and Sawdust , Lansdale sets the events during the Depression in East Texas; a time when a few white men were getting rich on oil and Jim Crow law was being unofficially legislated by the Ku Klux Klan. Certainly, women were supposed to know their place. Enter Sunset Jones, the heroine of this tale, the one who unexpectedly (especially to herself) sets out to straighten up a few crooked things in her sawmill town.

      Mad Dog Summer by Joe R. Lansdale
      Reviewed by Duncan Lawie
      29 November 2006 The problem with this collection is that Joe R. Lansdale is a great writer. He has such mastery of tone and style that I was convinced by almost every word he wrote in Mad Dog Summer . Convinced, but upset and irritated as well. In part, the problem is the distance between Lansdale's world view and my own; but what I really don't like about much of the work on show here is the vulgar approach Lansdale takes to his subjects.
      Inferno with every Hollow Earth story from Edgar Allen Poe to Howard Waldrop and mixing in some daft superheroes. However, the key ingredient in this mix is the silly voice used to tell the story. If you think 50 pages in a bizarre style is a good idea, you'll probably find this story a riot. I'm afraid "Way Down There" is a joke I didn't get.
      Mad Dog Summer ends up being no more than a self-indulgent masquerade of unpleasantness. Comments (3) Duncan Lawie lives in London and has a keen interest in the Polar Regions . Before the dot-com bubble burst, he was SF reviewer for

JOE R. LANSDALE: His Ownself May 2000
By Paula Guran Joe R. Lansdale hails from Nacogdoches, Texas. That's EAST Texas for those of you who don't realize there are several Texases. It's a place of piney woods and rich history, a fertile place for legends to grow. It's also part and parcel of Lansdale's literary voice, which has been termed "so distinctly Texan you can practically taste the swampy, East Texas pine sap on it." "Texas is a state of mind. It's bigger than you think," he says. "It's influence on those who grow up here is dramatic. We're taught love of Texas first, then love of country. Texas is our first country. And even when you grow up and broaden your horizons, it has a hold on you, if only in a metaphorical sense. I love it here. For more than twenty years now Lansdale's been using that influence writing novels, short stories, screenplays, comic books, even editing a few anthologies. Folks have come to call what Lansdale does "Mojo storytelling." Recent Austin Powers movies aside, most folks aren't exactly sure what Mojo is. Even Lansdale himself isn't exactly sure. "But I think it's good," he says. "Mojo, pronounced just how it's spelled, is an African based word more common in the South than the North, and it means something special. It can also mean bad magic or sexual energy. Apply that to writing, and, well, you got what you got, and I guess that's what I do." Lansdale's applies it in just about any kind of writing you can shake a stick at suspense, westerns, graphic stories and novels, mystery, humor, horror, thrillers, science fiction, and most likely the kitchen sink when he feels like it.

REFERENCES COLUMNS Mystery General Fiction With all the subjects and specializations of the literary landscape, sometimes the language gets lost. For many readers, it's good enough that a work be of one particular genre or another, from one particular publisher or another, that a work have one particular subject or object. Many of those works may be quite well-written, and more of them may be close enough for government work. But each and every one of these works is written with words that individually are one hundred percent the same. What the writers of these works bring to the proceedings is not just the genre, the subject, the beloved setting or the warmly-remembered character. Writers come to the reader via language. It's easier to realize this when you get a work like 'Sunset and Sawdust', the latest novel from Joe R. Lansdale. Lansdale's latest is a rip-roaring western set in the Depression-era Texas, much like his Edgar Award winning novel 'The Bottoms'. Familiarity isn't the main draw here. 'Sunset and Sawdust' offers the reader 321 pages of Lansdale's pithy and amusing storytelling voice. To be sure, Lansdale's got characters you love and settings you won't forget. But Lansdale's way with language is what draws his readers to the vast variety of novels that he writes. Lansdale connects with the reader using words to provide pure reading pleasure no matter what he's writing about.

here does Mojo storytelling come from? How does a fella learn tospin over-the-top yarns of any sort: horror, suspense, humor, science fiction, Western, what have you? First you got to see the world, like champion Mojo storyteller Joe R. Lansdale, who has lived everywhere from Gladewater, Texas to Mount Enterprise, Texas to Nacogdoches, Texas! "Texas is so wrapped up in myth and legend, it's hard to know what the state and its people are really about," says Lansdale. "Real Texans, raised on these myths and legends, sometimes become legends themselves. The bottom line is, Texas and its people are pretty much what most people mean when they use the broader term 'America.' No state better represents the independent spirit, the can-do attitude of America, better than Texas." The second ingredient to good Mojo storytelling is learning how to take a punch. Or a kick. Or a poke in the eye. And then learning how to avoid them. Lansdale is a student of the martial arts for more than thirty years. He's a two-time inductee into the International Martial Arts Hall of Fame, one such honor bestowed upon him for his founding of Shen Chuan, Martial Science. He holds belts in Daito Ryu Aikijujutsu, Combat Hapkido, American Combat Kempo, and Aikido, amongst others; in fact, his standard day is six hours at the typewriter, three hours at Lansdale's Self Defense Systems, the martial-arts studio which he owns and at which he teaches.

A review by Mario Guslandi
Advertisement Frankly, I didn't know what to expect from this book. Theme anthologies are tricky, especially when the subject is as narrow as the one generating the present volume: the horrific monster created about twenty years ago by Joe Lansdale for one of his early stories. Reproduced here at the beginning of the book, "God of the Razor" is a frightening tale of pure horror where the basement of an old, dilapidated house becomes the stage for the terrifying appearance of an evil creature apt to turn your blood into ice. Taking inspiration from this malevolent, superhuman character, a number of skilled genre writers have developed their personal nightmares. Chet Williamson provides "Jeaves and the Deteriorating Relations," a truly delightful semi-humorous pastiche mixing horror and Chesterton-like levity. Although usually prone to deeply dislike humorous horror, I must admit I greatly enjoyed this little gem.

http://weeklywire.com/ww/08-25-97/austin_books_feature1.html
Joe Lansdale
By Marc Savlov Joe R. Lansdale may be the most famous unknown writer working today. The 46-year-old Nacogdoches native has been consistently churning out a string of novels, short stories, screenplays, anthologies, and more recently comic books since he co-wrote, with his mother, a non-fiction piece for a regional farm journal way back in 1971. Since then, he's branched out into the fields he loves and grew up reading: hard-boiled crime novels, horror yarns, a slew of both fiction and non-fiction western writings, and, again, comic books, including a lengthy stint at D.C. where he single-handedly (along with friend and artist Tim Truman, that is) resurrected the character of Jonah Hex, a sixgun-wielding cowboy with a penchant for the supernatural and a real bad case of the uglies. His Mysterious Press novels ( Savage Season, Mucho Mojo, The Two-Bear Mambo The New York Times to Texas Monthly With a literary voice unlike any other one that's so distinctly Texan you can practically taste the swampy, East Texas pine sap on it Lansdale is that rarest of writers, one who can jump from genre to genre, from suspense to gut-curdling ultraviolence to outrageous humor, whenever the mood suits him. Jack London could do it, and Bram Stoker and Poe, too, but it's a tough leap for most. Publishers and book dealers aren't too fond of all this genre-hopping, either, seeing as how it forces them to shelve the author all over the store instead of in one convenient niche. I like to think Mr. Barnes and Mr. Noble slap their corporate brows in bewilderment every time a new Lansdale volume arrives. Hellfire, gentlemen, give the man his own section, already. It's about time.

Joe R. Lansdale, Bumper Crop (Golden Gryphon Press, 2004)
"Champion Mojo storyteller" Joe Lansdale is a writer whose work is unlikely to be forgotten once introduced into the reader's ken. His signature combination of humor and often over-the-top horror tends to make even the most jaded fiction reader rethink his or her comfort level. He is at his best when showing the hidden evil in everyday folks and the way that a seemingly simple turn of events can snowball into surprisingly complex terror, all while rarely leaving the confines of East Texas. Lansdale's voice is like no other and whatever he writes — and he has written mystery, suspense, horror, adventure, and western fiction — holds that unmistakable stamp. Golden Gryphon's previous Lansdale release, 2000's High Cotton , was a selection of the author's best short fiction. Bumper Crop intentionally does not aspire to those heights, being a selection of tales that, though not his best (and many fall under the realm of "disappointing"), are particularly memorable for one reason or another.
