I didn't know anybody wrote books like this. It's too subversive, dangerous and demented to have ever been published, right? Maybe the Devil had a hand in it. HOwever it made it into print, I'm thankful it did, otherwise I would have missed a book like no other. Part Sci-fi, part horror, part comic-book fantasy, it's written with a poet's eye and ear for image and language, and it grabs you by the short hairs and won't let go. The plot is too wild and crazy to summarize, so I'll just say read the book if you have a strong stomach. This is EXTREME horror. Not the commercial junk you find in books stores.But something else altogether. And it's altogether awesome. Read thses guys before they're put away.

Ivory tower critics and professors who think genre fiction is the purview of hacks and scribblers should take a long hard look at this novel. It contains some of the most potent, poetic, pyrotechnic, and perfeclty penned passages anywhere. Throw in convincing characterizations and vivid descriptions of both action and environments and you have a powerful read. Yet fair warning, the graphic violence makes this not for the faint of heart.
