Joe R. Lansdale - Deadman's Road (Subterranean Press, 2010, hc; this edition Tachyon Publications, 2013, Tp)
Cover: Travis J. Elston
Contents: Joe R. Lansdale - Introduction: The Reverend Rides Again and Again and Again and Again (2010) Dead in the West (1986) Deadman's Road (2007) The Gentleman's Hotel (2007) The Crawling Sky (2009) The Dark Down There (2010)
This is a collection of Lansdale's Weird Western stories. The introduction is fun. "This is not a book of Big Thinks", writes Lansdale. Indeed. "Dead in the West" was first a story, then a screenplay, but it never got produced. Again maybe it was too early for such a thing. The Reverend is not a nice protagonist, even if he is still better than the rest of the cast.
