Lansdale “Mickey Spillane fans will welcome this page-turner... Lansdale effectively delays revealing the novel’s big secret until the end. Those who like their thrillers with a heavy dose of violent action will be satisfied.” – Publishers Weekly review of Slow Bullet “This is an entertaining, science fiction-historical-horror blend with resourceful protagonists and a solid cast of secondary characters.” – Booklist review of Zombie Gold “...the author’s innate ability to spin a complex tale painted with vivid characters and intense suspense provides readers with a well-paced book that they may find difficult to set down...a worthwhile suspenseful ride.” – Amazing Stories review of Horse of a Different Color “Slow Bullet is a straight-ahead thriller…it's about action, and there's plenty of that. Check it out.” – Bill Crider’s Pop Culture Magazine “Zombie Gold has something for everyone… It's exciting, entertaining and educational. A fun ride.” – Joan Hallmark, TV personality, movie actress and author “…something unique and comfortable and difficult to put down.
