The Reunion at Herb's Cafe by Dan Jenkins

The Reunion at Herb's Cafe by Dan Jenkins

And what a reunion it is! Dan Jenkins reunites many of the most memorable and irascible characters from his most memorable and hilarious novels - starting with Semi-Tough. Billy Clyde Puckett, Shake Tiller, T. J. Lambert, Barbara Jane Bookman, Big Ed Bookman, Slick Henderson, Juanita Hutchins, Doris Steadman - the list goes on, and they're all packin' heat. It all begins when Herb's CafÉ - modeled after a Fort Worth landmark renowned for its chicken- fried steak - goes up for sale after Herb's death and the establishment's disastrous sequel as a trendy restaurant featuring outrageous nouvelle cuisine. Tommy Earl Bruner buys the place, rehires most of the old staff, and invites all its former denizens to Fort Worth for a grand celebration. The uproarious outcome could only have been dreamed up by comic mastermind Dan Jenkins.

Dan Jenkins was an award-winning sportswriter and best-selling novelist whose career spanned seven decades. He was the author of twenty-five books-thirteen novels and twelve works of nonfiction. After fifteen years writing for newspapers in Fort Worth and Dallas, Jenkins became nationally known for his stories in Sports Illustrated over a period of twenty-five years, for his stints as a sports columnist for Playboy, and for his essays, features, and tweets for Golf Digest.
