Cosmic Banditos



Allen.C. Weisbecker
192 pages

I first encountered Hunter. s .Thompson back in my teenage years ,
i was struggling through reading 'Zen and the art of motorcycle maintenance'
and a friend gave me Hunter's 'Fear and loathing in las Vegas' to help lighten the mood of 'Zen'
I made a complete fool of myself for the next three days as i laughed my ass off in the smoko room.
but what a book (yeah the movies okay -- 1/10th of the book) what a one of a kind author.
Until Banditos arrived in the mail that is...

This is a Hilariously funny adventure story,
featuring Mr Quark a 'down and out' pot smuggler and his dog 'high pockets' and a snake called 'Legs'
just weeks before they were rolling in millions of dollars but now they're hunted terrorists...
Meanwhile jose a 'bandito beyond belief' mug's an American family ,
among the spoils are physics books ,which lead Mr quark and jose
into their own world of 'theories on relativity', the 'nature of the universe' and
The meaning of life??
all of this is mixed with bandito morals, tequila, explosives and drugs..
Rating ; 10 out of 5
In the authors own description of the book the best he can do description wise is ;
" i suspect this tale is simply another example of something"
