review 1: Woo hoo! Crazy Lansdale. I like Crazy Lansdale. I think serious Lansdale is a better writer, but I love it when he goes nuts. And this book (a pair of them, actually) is bug nuts crazy - a mash up of westerns, alternate history, classic science fiction (Verne and Welles), death, sex, genetic experimentation, the wizard of oz, and a talking seal. Really impossible to describe but if that description piques your interest this is worth a look.
review 2: This is a combination of two related novellas which could superficially be described as League of Extraordinary Western Gentlemen. It's Joe R. Lansdale going full gonzo toying with history and alternate universes and fake realities. While Joe freed from such base concerns like narrative cohesion and realism s... moreounds like it would be a damn near perfect book (or pair of novellas collected) I found that these aren't really that great. less
