A fascinating mix of autobiographical episodes and extraordinary Egyptian theology, Burroughs' final novel is poignant and melancholic. Blending war films and pornography, and referencing Kafka and Mailer, The Western Lands confirms Burroughs' status as one of America's greatest writers. The final novel of the trilogy begun with Cities of the Red Night and The Place of Dead Roads is a Book of the Dead for the nuclear age, an astonishing, profound, and revealing meditation on morality, loneliness, life, and death.

Western Lands: An AD&D Manuel of the Planes meets noir Kiss me, Deadly
Revisado: 06-20-20
AD&D meaning both Burroughs ability to evoke the weird weapons and demons of first edition Advanced Dungeon and Dragons as well as AD&D: Adjusted Death and Dismemberment: extra afterlife/astral projection insurance premium. Burroughs comes across as a life insurance salesman whose Adjusted Death and Dismemberment: fees must be paid. Told in part in words Noir with double-agents subject to astral traveling tangents. The Audible book read by Ray Porter captures the Harvard educated sense of psychopathic prison-humor that I love in the Burroughs world of N.A: nameless assholes. -raw 2020-Austin, tx
