In any case, the story starts when Hap’s wife Trudy shows up once again to spend the night with him, something Leonard isn’t too happy about. Leonard has often acted as Hap’s crutch to keep him going through life, and at the start of Savage Season, both are working together as rose farmers. Leonard Pine is Hap’s best friend, a gay black man who went to Viet Nam and came home almost as disillusioned as Hap. If the pet had been a dog, his life would be considered fair game for a classic country song. His college degree was worthless, and so Hap came out of prison with no work, no house, no truck, no wife, and no pet. As a result, his wife left him and he lost everything. Hap Collins is a former 60s hippie who refused to go to Viet Nam and went to prison to prove his principles. This then, should be a series that I would enjoy, right? Unfortunately, Savage Season never really worked for me.īefore I get into the problems, I’ll describe the basic plot. Although I live in Italy now, I’ve spent the vast majority of my life in Texas towns both big and small, so I know Texas in all its forms. The Hap and Leonard stories take place in Texas, a place I’m intimately familiar with. I’m an addict for sure.) We had a work-ish trip to Spain come up, and I figured what better way to pass the time than with a crime story? When a Hap and Leonard TV series was announced, I picked up the first book to read it first, and Savage Season got lost in the virtual ebook pile on my Kindle (I have a TBR pile so big I may never finish it, but that never stops me from buying new books.
