The Ones You Do

When Emil Jadick barges into town with a crew of ex-con wingmen and a red-hot lady ready to help him break the place wide open, it seems that nothing can stand in his way. Nothing, that is, except a cop who plays the game in the same way that Jadick does - with no rules and no pity.

Muscle for the Wing: No. 2: A Shade Novel

Daniel Woodrell's shattering coming-of-age novel brilliantly captures the lawless universe of war as seen through the eyes of a young secessionist.  The 1860s: While the great battles of the Civil War rage in the East, Jayhawkers and bushwhackers wage their own vicious heartland war, savaging all in their wake without conscience or pity. Where the First Kansas Irregulars ride, no one is safe.  At sixteen, Jake Roedel joins this piratical band, and partakes in brutality excused in the name of retribution. But as friends fall and families flee, he questions his loyalties. Against a horrific backdrop -- Quantrill's raid on Lawrence, Kansas -- Jake puts himself in the path of his own comrades, becoming an outsider even to those who have become outlaws.

Woe to Live on

Muscle for the Wing (A Shade Novel)

<p>'Woodrell alternates between reaming the language with a dry corncob and practising a particularly skilful kind of literary cabinetwork. Tongue in cheek - and most other orifices - he celebrates blood, kin, home country and hot sex in this rich, funky, headshakingly original novel.' - E Annie Proulx</p>
