Reviews

[Jennifer Booth]

A quirky little book

I like it. It different from the other kids books that I have read before. It had an old, but fresh flavor.

[Estott]

Bangs can be a very good humorist and fantasist, but these stories for juvenile readers can be pretty hard to take

[Derek]

If one opened the Gates of Hell, I'm fairly certain a copy of this book would be waiting for you on the other side. Some of this is borderline bizarro. Most of it is horrific poetry.
