The Sisters Brothers

It is 1851 in the Oregon territory, and Charlie and Eli Sisters, two mercenaries in the American Old West, are charged by a mysterious Commodore to find and kill a man called Herman Kermit Warm, for a secret formulae that allows one to find gold without digging. They travel all a cross the country, meeting dentists, witchs and other bizarre characters.

This book is a differing blend: alchemy, gunplay and cowboys. Sometimes it is a derivation of the old West, sometimes it is a parody of it. It is not always serious, but not always funny either.
