Outrageous...An absurd and highly entertaining comic romp. -- Booklist

Product Description

Thousands of fans agree-Cosmic Banditos has been out of print for way too long. So here it is, back by popular demand: A.C. Weisbecker's rollicking novel of high times and hard times-in which he hilariously chronicles the adventures of a group of pot-smoking, number-crunching banditos-in-hiding.

5.0 out of 5 stars "Aaahhhh!", December 6, 2000

By	Aaron Robnett (Portland, OR USA) - See all my reviews

This review is from: Cosmic Banditos: A Contrabandista's Quest for the Meaning of Life (Hardcover)

This book is currently my Favorite Book of All Time. It has everything--Tequila, Doggy Sneese Attacks, Nymphomaniacs and Albert Einstein (just to mention a few). It's laugh-out-loud funny, but is also deep and personally reflective at times. I think anyone who reads this book will have their Worldview shaken up. If you know someone who takes themself a little too seriously, this book could be therapy for them. It makes me wonder what my life would've been like if I had never bought this book. Maybe somewhere in another dinension I am wandering around without "Cosmic Banditos." That would be a shame.

I definitely recommend getting your hands on this book...... Good luck banditos.

5.0 out of 5 stars This book will change your life--kind of!!, April 18, 1997

This review is from: Cosmic Banditos: A Contrabandista's Quest for the Meaning of Life (Hardcover)

When a friend of mine approached me with an old book of his a few years ago named "Cosmic Banditos" all I could do was laugh. However, the last laugh was difinitely on me. Never had I read such a hilarious, nonsensical, and metaphysical book. If only more people had heard of "cosmic Banditos," I truly think it would have become a genuine cult classic. If you haven't read this tale of drugs, corruption, fate, and Mexican spoofs, now is the time to BUY

5.0 out of 5 stars I love stumbling across little gems likes this one!!, November 28, 2001

By	Pana "donpaisa" (Denver, CO United States) - See all my reviews

On a non-related Amazon search I stumbled across this book. I was compelled to read it due to the excellent reviews it had received. And after reading it, I am glad to report that Cosmic Banditos is one of the coolest books I have ever read. I am not one to normally laugh out loud when reading, but this book was the exception. I couldn't keep the chuckles in! The author manages to meld two completely non-related subjects of drug running and quantum mechanics into a seamless and captivating tale. This book is a must buy for people who enjoy out of the norm books, or those who just want a change from the more serious titles usually found on best seller lists. Heck this book should be a must buy for ANYBODY who likes to laugh, period!
