Review
Praise for Will Christopher Baer:
“An over-the-top
Grande Guignol thriller that breaks every rule of fine literature without ever once descending to the lowest denominator….Baer’s sarcasm and occasional (and believable) flashes of humanity keep the depraved goings-on from descending to the cold sadism of a Jack Womack or Burroughs.”

Kirkus Reviews
“[Baer] assimilates the high diction and sonorous descriptions of Cormac McCarthy with the testosterone-pumped, grimly ironic and often murderously funny Gen X novels of Dave Eggers, Chuck Palahniuk and William T. Vollmann.”
—
Nashville Scene
“Baer writes noir like there’s no tomorrow, which is fitting, because it’s something of a shock his sexed-up and/or strung-out characters survive another day.”
