I will start by saying that I was not sure what I was letting myself in for here. I have heard a lot about Mike Resnick but never really intentionally went out to read his work - that is until I picked up his weird West Tales series (yes I will admit it I do not do things by half and if there is a series involved I will usually try and collect it all before I start it)/

So it was a pleasant surprised when I realised how much fun this book was. Yes it took historical events and twisted in to something utterly bizarre but it also added in elements you were not expecting (as one of the cover comments starts - where else would you see this combination of plot hooks brought together).

I can certainly see why Mr Resnick collected so many accolades and praise as well as cementing his name in the genre as both a creative and prolific author - I guess now I have to look at what other series of his I want to invest in as sadly it seems many of them are now either out of print or highly collectable or both. I suspect this may be a rather expensive author to follow
