4.0 out of 5 stars Warm Up Shorts and Other Treats!
This collects a lot of stories Lansdale wrote in order to "warm up" when he was working on a novel or some such. Some are less than a page long, a few are quite lengthy. My only complaint is that the book was far too short... I love some Lansdale and I think the "rare and uncollected stories" well has pretty much dried up considering there are three or four larger...

3.0 out of 5 stars Well...
This is chock full of mostly one page stories that are mildly entertaining and is advertised as such. Really, this is just for the Lansdale completist only. That being said, its better to have it than not.

4.0 out of 5 stars Warm Up Shorts and Other Treats!, February 28, 2006

My only complaint is that the book was far too short... I love some Lansdale and I think the "rare and uncollected stories" well has pretty much dried up considering there are three or four larger collections out there of his early and rare works. Hopefully I'm wrong, because I cherish these books, and read every one as they come out. Hopefully the next one will be more than just a hundred pages...

This one has more hilarious commentary by Lansdale, more great shorts... A must!
