The Smiling Death Gang
The title Smiling Death Gang graphically illustrates the theme and the flavour of this book. A feast for those who thrive on reading about violence, crime, cruelty and totally weird characters; it features a gang of violent criminals who terrorise the citizens of local villages. Allergic to work, they subsist on hanging around the local motor park, touting for tips and looking for opportunities to cause havoc; even going so far as to gate-crash a wedding, steal the guest's handbags and then break up the wedding ceremony, just for the hell of it. Nwadibia, their leader, ugly as sin, shuffles along the street, constantly plotting ways of exacting revenge against his enemies or torturing the citizenry. Lovers of intrigue and violence grab this one!

The Smiling Country
The Spur Award-winning author revisits one of the most memorable characters in Western fiction in this “exceptional sequel” to The Good Old Boys (Booklist). Elmer Kelton introduced Texas cowboy Hewey Calloway, one of the most beloved characters in Western fiction, almost thirty years ago in The Good Old Boys. The novel was transformed into a memorable 1995 TV film starring Tommy Lee Jones and Sissy Spacek. Now Hewey returns, older if not necessarily wiser, in The Smiling Country. It is 1910 and Hewey Calloway's freewheeling life is coming to an end. The fences, trucks, and automobiles he hates are creeping into the remote “smiling country” of West Texas. When he is badly injured trying to break a renegade horse, Hewey sees the loneliness that awaits him, and regrets his decision to run away from the only woman he has ever loved, the schoolteacher Spring Renfro.
