I will pimp this book 'til I die.Find it, read it and inject some meaning into your colourless lives.
This is a shallow attempt at pimping. Sure maybe a passing interest, but show us some skin if you really want to sell it. Dare I ask, what is it?
Hmm, difficult to describe. The author claims he is a synthete and experiences the writing process as being like chewing gum...It's very funny - a melding of fantasy, sci-fi and noir, depicting a near future post modern punk world where crime has been elevated to an art-form. The protagonist (Dante Cubit) is the enfant terrible of this art crime wave in Beerlight and the novel is the story of his masterwork.The prose is a succinct, punchy series of one liners. For example (I'm going from memory here ), Dante's girlfriend is introduced and beautifully characterized by noting that she had 'lost a finger in a mood-ring explosion'...Publisher synopsis:Full of sass and sarcasm, ultra-cool Dante Cubit and his pill-popping sidekick, the Entropy Kid, waltz into First National with some serious attitude and a couple of snub guns. Within minutes, another (timetraveling) Dante appears - inside the bank vault - and the heist is on. But something's not right. Is it all just a virtual reality prank of Dante's hacker pal, Download Jones? Have Dante and the Kid really heisted the bank? What follows is a tangle of reality and virtual reality. Adding to the fireworks is the very real hitman Brute Parker, hot on the trail and out to exterminate Dante - or is it Dante Two - his rival for the love of the captivating assassin Rosa Control. Its also nice and short.It's available cheap on amazon - check it out kindle too! only $6.50!!more quotes from goodreadshttp://www.goodreads.com/work/quotes/535285-slaughtermaticPimpin enough yet?
