If someone wronged you or your family, how would you get revenge? Key their car? Throw a brick through their window? Maybe even post some dog poo through their letterbox? Or you could try Travis Tuckton's and his Grandpap's method of drilling a hole into their head and erm...having your way with it.
The book wasn't as over the top and effed up as I thought it was going to be, but it had it's moments. The image it put into my head of Travis holding up footless Grandpap while he rapes a corpse's head is going to be stuck in there for a while.
It was funny, and a quick, easy read. And as I've come to expect from Edward Lee, his writing is top notch, which is what separates him from a lot of writers who write this sort of stuff. He knows how to write characters and there's always rhyme and reason to everything that happens.
My only complaint is that the end seemed a little rushed and it could have been a little bit longer. But I believe there are two sequels, and I can guess that they will be twice as mental as this one, so I look forward to reading them.
It's been out for a while, this book, and I'm glad I've finally read it. 4 stars right to the face! Now, that time this lad from school chased me around the park with his mates trying to beat me up...I never got revenge for that. Hmmmm.
