with Bitchfight, Michael A. Arnzen has written another tale which is both horrific and poignant. The plot is just as compelling as the characters who propel the story. In the hands of a lesser writer, The Bitchfight could be absurd, but Arnzen proves his mastery of the subject matter, making the reader care about the "animals" as well as the vet forced to care for them. And the ending...well, you've got to read it.
Amazing Store!! I have found so many books I coveted in Horror Mall. Amazing lettered editions of Edward Lee & Jack Ketchum books. Books are packaged very securely and shipped very quickly. Overall, nothing to complain about except I wish I had more disposable income so I could buy more......Thanks alot for Horror Mall!

Author: Jason Perlman I am a huge fan of both these writers and when they are together they are good, but the sum of their parts are much better as separate voices. Although the story was fun, it seemed a bit rushed and from my perspective the book was traded chapter by chapter which left every other chapter an integral part of Keene's saga, but left the other chapters missing something from the overall story.
But for Keene fans who may think they do not need to read this, that is anything but the truth as much is revealed in this story about his overall worlds and there was even a hint of another book in the future with another author. (Not giving a spoiler, have to read the last chapter yourself).
Overall, a good, fun read but not as high as many of their other works. As with either JF or Brian, the price of admission is always worth it and Clickers III is no different. The characters seemed a bit rushed and forced for two authors who normally have the ready caring wholeheartedly about each voice in their narrative.
But still a book that should be removed from the TBR pile and into your hands.
Author: Jack Staynes I can agree with Perlman on this one. It's a great read and well worth the dough. How can you pass up on Gonzalez, or Keene or more Clickers for that fact? But I also felt that it was the weakest link of the three, it kinda felt like Brian was taking the original idea of Clickers and made it more his own with a glimpse into the labyrinth, I ain't gonna knock that though cause I'm sure Gonzalez was 100% on board with it, but I just didn't expect it. The mention of the possible next book contained in this one was a treat though, and if Clickers IV comes out then I'm all over it, in fact I sure hope that I'll be around for years to come and they keep putting them out. The thing with sequels and such is they usually never live up to the originals, but that's just accepted coz the original is the template and can never be surpassed. Also big kudos to Delirium for going back to doing a dust jacket for this book. Sure looks nice on the shelf with the others.
