Spaceman Blues: A Love Song
When Manuel Rodrigo de Guzmán González disappears, Wendell Apogee
decides to find out where he has gone and why. But in order to figure
out what happened to Manuel, Wendell must contend with parties,
cockfights, and chases; an underground city whose people live in houses
suspended from cavern ceilings; urban weirdos and alien assassins;
immigrants, the black market, flight, riots, and religious cults.
Painted in browns and grays and sparked by sudden fires, Spaceman Blues is a literary retro-pulp science-fiction-mystery-superhero novel, the
debut of a true voice of the future, and a cult classic in the making.
”What a breathless, mad, tornado of words! When it shakes itself awake the earth trembles and the helpless reader is dragged gladly into its light. I haven't had this much fun with a book in years.” – Harlan Ellison
