Read this one off of a suggestion from some knucklehead who told me it was "hilarious." Friends, it is not hilarious. It is, hands down, one of the most abysmally dark, claustrophobic, and unrelenting novels about undiagnosed depression that I have ev ...more

Anyone following the alt-right will be familiar with most of this material. What Neiwert does really well here is showing how the disparate factions of what he calls "Alt-America" are all intertwined - from Alex Jones and his outlandish, ruinous cons ...more

Keith Rosson liked Milo's review of Hot Dog Girl: "This had a bunch of stuff on my Hell No list, including cheating, lying, being pomo-closeted, and so on. At the same time, it had a real and realistic bisexual MC, a hot dog costume, and cupcakes. The amusement park setting really made me think ab..." Read more of this review »

Quotes by Keith Rosson

“Marvin, you're here now," Vale said. He stood up, his knees popping. "The food sucks. They have severed animal heads in the bar. I don't know if you know that." His cigarette sparked against the gravel and he ratcheted open my walker in front of me. "But you're among friends, okay, and you're still walking upright and taking solids. You're winning. Anything beyond that is thinking too far ahead”
― Keith Rosson, Smoke City
