You're seriously going to need a strong stomach for this one. Gross outs galore but not in a bloody way. If you've read other hardcore Edward Lee books than you know what I'm talking about. This book takes it to new levels and beyond. I found it nearly impossible to put this book down. Underneath it all you get unique characters and a great story plot. After a while I started to become desensitized and everything became extremely comical in a very dark way. What the hell is Lee going to write next?
I was not impressed. This was my first read by Edward Lee and I was ready to be blown away based on other reviews. I wanted disturbing and macabre but I got juvenile and unimaginative. I'm not ready to give up on him, but this story was disappointing.
