In this career horror retrospective, World Horror Grandmaster Joe R. Lansdale (Bubba Ho-tep; Hap and Leonard) tackles racism and human cruelty as deftly as he conjures demon nuns and Elder Gods. Featuring an original introduction from Joe Hill, this much-anticipated volume showcases the best of Lansdale's terrifying short stories--menacing, astute, and wildly inappropriate.

"This book is flat-out incredible." --John Skipp, New York Times bestselling author-turned-filmmaker of This Is Splatterpunk

Bestselling author Joe R. Lansdale is known for his gritty mysteries and his eccentric horror. As an eleven-time Bram Stoker Award winner, Joe Lansdale cooks up an inimitable recipe of Southern Gothic and Southern fried chicken that continues to delight his many fans and influence generations of horror legends.

Lansdale mashes up crime, Gothic, mystery, fantasy, and science-fiction, filtered through a raw, violent world of dark humor and unique characters. Lansdale is one of the early American horror writers to portray racism not as abstract but as realistic, intimate, and impossible to ignore.

In Lansdale's nightmarish visions, you'll discover psychotic demon nuns, a psychopathic preacher, cannibals, 80-year-old Elvis, undead strippers, flying ghost fish, Elder Gods, possessed cars, and the worst evil of all: mankind.

Amazon sell a fine selection of replacement fiberized rubber fiber plugs & cement. Read the reviews.
Color: Vivid Orange
This is the only kit you will ever need at roadside to plug a tire & be on your way. This kit has it all. I'm a retired long haul trucker. This is my preferred plug kit. I have stored one of these in all of my trucks & my wife's SUV. You could spend so much more for other plug kits. But this one works. The price reflects the quality of both the tools & all the other essentials you will ever need. I recommend you buy this one. The money you save can be used elsewhere. Note: Amazon sell a fine selection of replacement fiberized rubber plugs & rubber cement. This is where you don't want to skimp on cheap-O plugs elsewhere. These two items are the most important items in the entire system. Be prepared! Always read the reviews & know the sellers reputation before you purchase things. ///////////////

ALMOST perfect.
Color: Vivid Orange
Item is as advertised. Durable, and the tools are useful for more than just regular plugs. It comes with the snips which was great as well as actual valve stem replacements which I thought were pretty nice. Only complaint are the plug strips themselves. If the hole is from a bolt or something larger than the average screw, it may take two of them to completely stop the leak. Hope this helped.

Sturdy, high-quality components
Color: Vivid Orange1, Size: 16pcs
Well-made reamer and plug inserter, as well as the 10 plugs, and the accessories. Even the pouch is high quality. Included instructions are very clear -- just be sure not to insert the plug with too much force, or you'll put the entire plug thru the hole. It's so much easier for a simple in-situ scooter tire puncture repair, where removing the tire can be much more time-consuming than removing a car tire. Including the high-quality little water/soap solution mister is a thoughtful feature. I highly recommend.
