Anthony Neil Smith

Happy to have filled in one of the few missing pieces of my Anthony Neil Smith reading. This is a novelette length tale that takes place during World War 2, and of course it is incredibly gory and grisly, as can be expected from this author. It is just the right length for this sort of thing--a little longer and it would have started to drag. Nice ending, in deeping with the author's seeming overall philosophy, which I'll leave you to deduce by reading his other books. Suffice to say that Smith is one of America's great overlooked authors.… (mais)

Wow what a messed up book
A corrupt ex cop Micah Slow Bear, who is a one armed Indian gets on the wrong side of the head of the reservation and casino and is given a mission to uncover the dirty dealings of another former reservation Indian.
Slow bear is not the brightest Indian but has a bad habit of not dying while everyone around him does.
His sort of girlfriend gets kidnapped and sold into sex slavery and he spends the rest of the book trying to find her. Lots of violence lots of dark humor.… (mais)
