3.0 out of 5 stars
Baffling, strange, honest, and interesting.,
By A Customer
This review is from: Victory Chimp (Paperback)
It's been a while since i've read this book, so bear with me. Neil Hagerty has presented us with science fiction at its most confusing. Victory Chimp is our hero who takes us through time in a fight against Chon. The most interesting section of the book comes in the final segment, with the question and answer period. Hagerty uses wrestling as his metaphor here; he succeeds in doing so. This book may require a repeat read, but it is worth the effort. A very odd and enjoyable work. Recommended by this reader.

hagerty delivers the goods,
By A Customer
This review is from: Victory Chimp (Paperback)
hagerty proves once again he is rock and roll in human form. other authors worry about things like plots that make sense, consistent narrative perspective, and a satisfying climax. neil, on the other hand, has no time for any of this nonsense. instead he chooses to type with his genitalia and spit whiskey at your sister. you know if this is for you, so what are you waiting for, sucka?

My eyes are still bleeding...,
By robert s (England) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Victory Chimp (Paperback)
I inhaled this book two months ago and my eyes are still bleeding. It sure is a triumph of good over elvis. I listened to the records at the same time and took it in the ears as well as the eyes. A great man once said 'I never met a man I didn't like' But then I wouldn't trust anyone who listens to the Royal Trux. I think I hear my mom calling...
