Lansdale stitches all the young Hap and Leonard short stories into a mosaic novel with the use of a framing device. Hap Collins and Leonard Pine are driving around East Texas reminiscing on their early life. Each place they visit leads them to recount another adventure, tragedy, or personality-forming encounter.The framing device was slightly awkward, but the quality of the stories was consistently high. This is in many ways the most mature, cohesive of the four Hap and Leonard short story collections. At times funny, poignant, and heartbreaking.For fans of the novels, it is illuminating to see how Hap’s self-contradictory character developed from the things he saw and suffered during his formative years—particularly his deep sense of compassion for animals juxtaposed with his penchant for resorting to violence against humans at the first sign of trouble.Other recurring themes from the novels—racism, conservationism, respect for women, and (most importantly) choosing your family based on shared values over blood kinship—are explored here as well.Most Hap and Leonard fans will find all but two or three of these stories to be new material. Fans of Lansdale who make it a point to read all of his limited-edition and small press books will note that of the fourteen stories, only five are actually original to this collection: “Blood and Lemonade”, “In the River of the Dead”, “Stopping for Coffee”, “Coach Whip”, and “Squirrel Hunt”..The other nine stories appeared previously in other Lansdale collections, although each has been revised for this volume, at least slightly, for sake of continuity:• “Tire Fire”, “Down by the Riverside”, and “The Bottom of the World” first appeared as bonus content in the limited-edition hardback publication of Fender Lizards.• “Parable of the Stick”, “Short Night” and “Apollo Red” first appeared in Miracles Ain’t What They Used to Be. (Note that in its original incarnation “Apollo Red” did not actually feature Hap Collins as its narrator.)• “Not Our Kind” and “The Boy Who Became Invisible” appeared in Hap and Leonard.• “The Oak and the Pond” first appeared in Hap and Leonard Ride Again. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ The early years. *by S***H on Reviewed in the United States on August 8, 2019* I love Lansdale and I especially love the Hap and Leonard stories. These are a seemingly random collection of short stories. But 5he stories, when taken together form a kind of loosely related series that feel “novelish.” The fellas get into and out of all kinds of trouble and teach their own brand of justice and philosophy. Don’t hesitate. Buy this book now so you can begin reading it soon. Mine arrived in one day. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Read them all *by C***E on Reviewed in the United States on April 8, 2021* Great book! Great condition! I'm a big fan of the Hap and Leonard book series. --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.it/products/40189730-hap-and-leonard-blood-and-lemonade-hap-and-leonard](https://www.desertcart.it/products/40189730-hap-and-leonard-blood-and-lemonade-hap-and-leonard) --- *Product available on Desertcart Italy* *Store origin: IT* *Last updated: 2026-04-22*
