Summary: Holy crap!
Comment: This is a book you just have to read. Buy it... Just get it. It reads kind of like a Vonnegut book, but it's a lot weirder than Vonnegut and is more underground culture than pop culture. The story involves everything from a dimension of midgets dressed up like united states presidents to Jesus Christ masturbation fantasies to a race of women who eat with their vaginas. There's enough story in this book to write a hundred books. But the basic plot is simple: some punks get jobs at a fast food joint owned by the devil while the world falls into apocalyptic chaos. I can't wait for more Carlton Mellick books to come out. I'm itching for more...

Summary: A true original
Comment: This is one of the most original books I've read in a long time. It would be easy to dismiss the book for a variety of reasons: the obscene cover artwork, the fact that it was written by a 20 year old (which I find very impressive, after reading it), the characters are disaffected teens who do a lot of drugs, etc. But I found it to be hilarious, insightful, imaginative, subversive and thoroughly enjoyable. It may not be a traditionally structured story, but it's not full of pointless gimmicks either. Nor is it a self-indulgent stream-of-consciousness mess. The author really just seemed to be following his instincts, and daring to push the boundaries of traditional storytelling. I think this is a young writer to watch out for.

Summary: The best ending ever!
Comment: This book left me shaking. I could almost feel the narrator's soul being sucked from his body at the end of the book. All those blank pages made me feel cold. I don't understand how some people didn't get it. It's not a puzzle or anything. The book is enjoying to read and very entertaining even during its darker moments.
I've bought most of Mellick III's books. This one isn't his best, but definitely the most fun to read.
