“Illogical, uproarious, yet ultimately memorable…Riotous doings, with oddball characters too numerous to mention, anchored in a sensitive and absorbing exploration of Oliver’s relationship with his mother…The parts of this gloriously mad, serious-hearted outing from an exceptionally promising new talent, are greater than the whole.”
— Kirkus Reviews

Quotes

“Denton offers pop culture, tabloid headlines, and rock ’n’ roll in an entertaining blend reminiscent of such quirky films as Repo Man and The Adventures of Buckaroo Banzai…Denton’s masterful balancing of humor, action, and perceptive characterization yields intelligent, moving entertainment.”
— Publishers Weekly
“Denton fills this supremely funny novel with warring space aliens disguised as humans, a robot dog, a psychopathic assassin, an overzealous psychologist and her jealous husband, a motorcycle gang, and a messianic televangelist—all to prove that rock ’n’ roll never really died.”
— Library Journal
