Enhanced descriptions from Syndetics:

A SundanceTV series starring Michael K. Williams (The Wire), James Purefoy (Rome), and Christina Hendricks (Mad Men). Hap and Leonard have never fit the profile. Hap Collins looks like a good 'ol boy, but his liberal politics don't match. After a number of failed careers, Hap has found his calling: kicking ass. Vietnam veteran Leonard Pine is even more complicated: black, conservative, gay...and an occasional arsonist. With Leonard on the job, small-time crooks all on the way on up to the Dixie Mafia had best be extremely nervous. Joe R. Lansdale's popular Texan crime-fighting duo are immortalized in this complete collection of Hap and Leonard short stories and tall tales. Additionally, you'll find one brand-new story and an original introduction by New York Times bestselling author Michael Koryta (So Cold the River).

"A collected work of fiction"--Title page verso.
