Mucho Mojo

Hap and Leonard #2

De: Joe R. Lansdale

Narrado por: Phil Gigante

Hap and Leonard return in this incredible, mad-dash thriller, loaded with crack addicts, a serial killer, and a body count.

In the second installment of the Hap and Leonard series, Leonard is still nursing the injuries he sustained in the duo's last wild undertaking when he learns that his Uncle Chester has passed. Hap is of course going to be there for his best friend and offers to help clean Uncle Chester's dilapidated house, which Leonard has inherited.

There they uncover a dark little secret beneath the house's rotting floor boards - a small skeleton buried in a trunk. Hap wants to call the police. Leonard being a black man in east Texas, persuades him this is not a good idea, and together they set out to clear Chester's name on their own. The only things standing in their way is a houseful of felons, a vicious killer, and possibly themselves.

"A witch's brew of a tale to tell... A rare sort of gift it is, and Joe Lansdale has his in bushel baskets." ( The New York Times)
"A terrifically gifted storyteller." ( The Washington Post)
"Funny, compulsive...enjoyably raffish." ( Esquire)

great book. love the character

narrator is perfect for this series. story was great. the two main characters are perfectly written. if you love the show youll really love the books.

Love These Characters

I originally became a fan of Hap & Leonard from watching the Sundance TV series based on Joe R Lansdale’s brilliant novels. A few years ago I began to lose my vision and switched from visual media to audible media for entertainment. I’ve had this book in my library for a while and wanted to revisit one of my favorite characters after hearing of Michael K Williams’ (Leonard) passing.

I’m just gonna admit it--Leonard is my favorite character. I do, at times, wish Lansdale had given readers some direct POV of Leonard, but I’m OK with Hap telling the story.

There are parts of the story that are funny, parts that are poignant, and parts that are sad, but told with a realism and humanism that will resonate with every reader. Hap and Leonard are as opposite as two men can be, but both have a drive to help people where they can and to give justice to those who no longer have a voice.

Narrator Phil Gigante brings Lansdale’s characters alive. He delivers an excellent performance.

Highly recommended.

awesome narrator

The story seemed good, if a bit dated, but I probably would have liked it just a bit more of it would've been edited a smidge tighter, but all in all, I look forward to reading the rest of the series.

Love it

Love the narrator, perfectly performed Texas mystery that was very enjoyable. Love Hap and Leonard.

It Has It All

Some books have a strong plot, others strong characters, still others an ending that actually makes sense given the story. Some books have all that and a reader who is pitch on perfect. Mucho Mojo is one of those books that just has it all.
