About this audiobook
In "Derelicts of the Hills," grand ambition turns to matters of the heart when Magpie decides he's no longer one of the "deerylicks on th' hills uh life" and sets out to marry a beautiful waitress, only to discover on his wedding day that his bride-to-be has a husband and a scheme far more elaborate than his own. In Piperock, the only thing more dangerous than a bad idea is a good one, and in "Tales from Piperock," Magpie Simpkins is full of them. W. C. Tuttle, the master of old west adventure and slapstick Western comedy, invites you to a town where every scheme is shy some sort of a dingus that makes it tick. Join the long-suffering narrator Ike Harper as he's dragged into the fray by his lanky partner Magpie and the scrappy, roving-eyed troublemaker Dirty Shirt Jones. In "The Catspaw of Piperock," a simple Christmas fundraiser to raffle off an automobile to those "crippled crawlers" from rival towns descends into a full-blown stampede, complete with a whisker-eatin' camel, a runaway steer, and a disastrous holiday pageant that ends with the prize crashing through the very church it was meant to replace. The pandemonium reaches a fever pitch in "Injuneered," when a visiting chief's rented circus--featuring a lion, a tiger, and a misfit elephant--is won in a crooked poker game, sold to that unholy trinity from Yaller Horse, and becomes the centerpiece of a town-wide disaster involving a legal attachment, a runaway automobile, and the sheriff being tossed into a tree before the elephant crashes straight through the livery stable. For anyone who loves a good laugh and classic humor where things go spectacularly wrong, the chaos of Piperock awaits. This edition has been fully restored with modern typesetting, custom cover design.
