As for the four feisty female freshmen stranded on top of West Virginia's third highest mountain, they have no choice but to experience the sick, twisted debauchery and perverted mayhem described deep inside the tight unbroken bindin...more

Lumberjacked is a wild, quick ride. Nothing is held back in this novel. Nothing is off limits. For someone who does not find much of anything offensive, this is about as close to offensive as it gets. This of course is a good thing. The story centers around a regioned more than certain characters. Sure there are the sorority girls, a fortune teller, a lowly manager of a historic attraction, and lumberjacks. All of these people are knotted into a crazy, bloody, gory, sexy mess. This makes the nov...more
As it clearly states on the back cover "Don't Read This Book ... If you are easily offended or do not possess a truly depraved sense of humor."
I must fall into the category of people who are not easily offended and who have a depraved sense of humor because I found Lumberjacked both over the top, and still somewhat disturbing. The disturbing part isn't the violence or the sex as much as the thought that the West Virginia depicted in this work is unfortunately not distant enough from our own wor...more

Deliciously demented to say the least - two enthusiastic thumbs up!
To say that Lumberjacked is a page-turner is an understatement. It is a very sick, but very funny novel (if that makes sense) with highly-charged sexual scenes that would make Penthouse proud. It takes dark situations and splashes humor (and sex) at just the right moment.
It is a fascinating journey, exploiting stereotypes and situations that you sometimes suspect in your dark subconscious mind might (or could) happen and when yo...more

The back of the book does in fact warn you not to read this if you are one of those easily offended types. But if you are able to enjoy freely and open-mindedly, then I would recommend this book to you.
Essentially, ‘Lumberjacked’ starts out with a really repressed and impoverished sort of father-daughter relationship. When Melissa goes off to college, she experiences the freedom of exploration that most youths cannot wait for when escaping from the binds of family. As Melissa and her dorm full...more

I was almost afraid to read this book...not because of the warning on the back cover, but because it is so hard to find good authors that write about West Virgina without following some kind of weird, redneck, incestual storyline. So, during the first chapter, I found myself getting pissed off, feeling like this was going to be another poorly written Appalachian horror story. However, throughout chapters 2-5, I became VERY pleasantly surprised at Bottles' use of an intricate plotline, complete w...more
In his debut novel LUMBERJACKED, Rich Bottles Jr. takes us on a nightmare trip into Appalachia, where bloody death awaits at the hands of mountain-dwelling locals. But don't expect a hackneyed riff on WRONG TURN or DELIVERANCE here, as the twists and turns LUMBERJACKED takes go beyond mere hillbilly stereotypes--or common decency.
The premise, however, is a classic slasher formula. A group of college freshmen--beautiful, nubile, constantly horny college freshmen, I hasten to add--embark on a scen...more

Lumberjacked is filled with action, horror, gore and intimate encounters. What more could a reader want? Rich, you are a dirty, dirty man! I kinda like it :)
