Whoever wrote the blurb to this could be charged with false advertising. Theyd be aquitted I'm court, but only on a technicality.
Sure, it is a story about a family of assasins and their whacky adventures. If by whacky adventures you mean r*ping - oh sorry "having a go on" - and murdering approximately half the people they meet. This "HILARIOUS horror satire", as per blurb, manages to funny between 1 and 3 times. One could argue that there's genuine social commentary to be had but that's true of anything if you try hard enough.
Perhaps if they cut the sexual assault/abuse in half it would average every other page, I wish i was exaggerating.
If it wasnt so preoccupied with winning edge lord of the year it might have been a good and interesting story. As it is, it's not particularly good or interesting.
