Order the book from Amazon, Barnes & Noble, or an independent bookstore. The Putt at the End of the World – a "serial" novel, edited by Les Standiford "This outrageously funny, multi-authored novel by (in order of tee times) Les Standiford, Ridley Pearson, Tami Hoag, Lee K. Abbott, Tim O'Brien, Richard Bausch, Dave Barry, James W. Hall, and James Crumley is a treasure... an exhibition of carnal swing mechanics unrivaled since the orgy scene from Caligula. This droll, absurd fable is just mainstream enough to keep even the nongolfing masses, who don't know a mashie from a niblick, guffawing out loud."    —Publishers Weekly Order the book from Amazon.
