Amazon Reviews:
" Clean Kill is a downright scary, wicked, dark, fascinating book and I could not stop reading. Conrad Johnson is a master of scene setting and characterization, of pacing and plot." --Rebecca Forster
"No one peers as intensely into the dark heart of the human soul as Conrad Johnson. If violence begets violence, then we are all doomed. But we know that already. "Clean Kill" renders the parallel pursuit of the writing and the killing arts masterfully. It is an adventure we wish not to take but cannot refuse. The final monopoly of the reader's consciousness is not so much the result of the gruesome story but the amazing writing, the completely original turns of phrase, the WTF epiphanies. Conrad Johnson probably won't get the recognition he deserves __ hardly a surprise in the Pollyannaish literary environment which the corporatization of creativity has submerged us in. But someday in the distant future, when whatever pathetic creatures crawl out of the rubble and find his writings mixed in with unreadable disk drives and CD-Rs, his works will take their place beside the paranoid nihilism of Nietzsche, the moribund but deadly exactitude of Camus, and the existential angst and self-loathing of Sartre. Conrad Johnson is perspicacious and prescient. He is the master of the blow-the-MF-away genre, the man who chronicled our lethal addiction to self-destructive violence and the total devaluation of the human organism in a tsunami of narcissism and childish worship of guns."--John D. Rachel
"John starts this novella off with "reviews from readers". At first you are thinking...."how did he get these reviews?" But when you realize that this is a spoof, (and perhaps have endured what writers go through) you start seeing the book in a different light. I wrote the author and said I thought his book was hilarious. Perhaps not everyone sees it as such, from reading the other reviews, but I enjoyed it thoroughly and, humorously speaking, perhaps have a target or two also."--Barbara Billig
"You don't understand. He can't be bargained with. He can't be reasoned with. He doesn't know pity or fear or remorse, and he absolutely will not stop...ever, until you are dead." Kyle Resse: The Terminator
"The premise of this novella is simple enough. It is also something that can easily resonate with anyone who has attempted to have a book published. A struggling writer, beaten down by months and years of rejection, snaps and decides to kill the literary agent who personifies everything that is wrong with the publishing industry. This crisis decision leads this author on a long strange trip into madness and murder.
There is a similarity between the iconic, unstoppable cyborg and the protagonist in Mr. Johnson's book; relentless perseverance. There is a darkly comedic quality to the prose that is engaging, even if it doesn't quite create empathy between the reader and the protagonist. There is also a tragic unsettled character to the ending that might be more disturbing than the story itself. If you are a writer (or ever wanted to be one), this is a cautionary tale of obsession. You have been warned."--Gamal Hennessy
