" I haven't been this disappointed by a book in ages. I was such a mad fan of Crooked Little Vein, too. Whereas that was just crazy enough to function on craziness alone, this is a complete mess. Ellis' books read like a collation of all the weird shit he finds on the internet, and then hell, let's wind a story around it. He doesn't get away with that here. The concept is insane and awesome and implies a gigantic pay-off. There is none. The ending essentially takes a dump on you and your girlish hopes and dreams about three times in succession, and the cigarette-butt-in-chip-packet moment is retarded beyond measure. I love you Warren but fuck man, get out of the depths of Wikipedia and start thinking narrative. "
