Hannibal Rising 364 reviews Thomas Harris
Random House Large Print, 2006
Hannibal Rising - What War Has Wrought
This book is everything I hoped it would be: a penetrating look into the making of the character Hannibal Lecter. As other reviewers have stated, one is not born evil; experiences conspire to make one evil. Imagine yourself in Hannibal's shoes as that 10-year-old boy, and tell me you would not be ...

I, Lucifer: Finally, the Other Side of the Story 39 reviews Glen Duncan
Grove Press, 2003
Spectacular!
+ If you hate this book you have no soul. + a breathless ride
Glen Duncan is hilarious and serious, his usual mode of writing.
With humor and gravity, he winds his way thru the everlasting question, why would/did God let Satan have his own way, and any power at all? The strain to understand, from a Christian viewpoint, the black and white difference between ...

The Menstruating Mall 27 reviews Carlton Mellick III
Afterbirth Books, 2005
Fun, satirical, read
+ Read this instead of Stephen King + One of Mellick's best
I read this book in between my college classes. It is fast paced and fun to read and made me laugh out loud about a dozen times. The characters are hilariously stereotypical but definitely that way by design. This book has definitely surreal moments and circumstances, as the title mentions, the ...

I had been meaning to read this book for a long time, and I must say that I am glad to have finally read it. There is horror and gore in this book, but the only purpose is not to make you sick. Pat Bateman exists in a society that most of us will never understand. His ability to keep up appearances ...

Punk Land 14 reviews Carlton Mellick III
Eraserhead Press, 2005
Even better than Satan Burger
+ Punk Land + Are you REALLY punk enough to get in?
Satan Burger is one of my favorite books, but Punk Land is even better than that. It has the characters Nan and Mortician from Satan Burger. It takes place soon after the events that took place in the first book. I recommend reading Satan Burger first but Punk Land is such a better book and is ...
