After a botched holdup, Bill, a not-too-bright bungler who has been living with his dead mother in order to collect her social security checks, hides out in a traveling freak show populated by a bizarre assortment of bearded ladies, hermaphrodites, dogmen, and a mysterious frozen man.

Contains mature themes.

Here we have a crime novel, but if you're familiar with the work of Joe R. Lansdale, you'll already know that it's not easily categorized.

We have a fugitive joining a freak show. Said fugitive works for the show and goes on the road with it. The kindly gentleman who took him on has a beautiful wife, Gidget. That's all I'm going to say about the plot.

Being that it's Joe R. Lansdale, you know there'll be some humor in here, and there is. As Lansdale mentioned Fredric Brown, (who sometimes wrote about carnivals and circuses), and James M. Cain in the introduction, I think it's fair to say that if you like them, you'll like this. We have a noir-ish feel to the tale, as well as all the oddities that tend to appear in freak shows. Toss in Lansdale's downhome storytelling and humor and you've got yourself a damn fine book to read.

In this case, I listened to the incredible Brad Sanders' narration, and I had a great time!

Highly recommended to everyone, but especially to fans of Fredric Brown, James M. Cain and Joe R. Lansdale!

I was thrilled that FREEZER BURN a classic Joe Lansdale book was released recently as an audiobook and even more excited to find out the extremely talented, Brad Sanders did the narration. FREEZER BURN is a bit different in the fact that the main character of the book has some serious flaws yet Lansdale somehow makes the reader/listener hope for the best for the character which is not an easy thing to do. Fans of Joe Lansdale should celebrate along with me that we are given the opportunity to revisit another classic Joe Lansdale story via audiobook.
