From the Back Cover:
"There are not many truly funny writers in the world - writers who can make you laugh out loud, make you do that repetitive, mounting-laughter thing, so that you finally have to put the book down and try and catch your breath, while going 'Oh boy, wow, Oh God. Jeez.' Jack Pendarvis is, for me, one such writer. He is also the type of funny writer who sends you back into the world feeling gentler towards human beings, and I think that's because he allows so much of himself, and thus us, into these stories - our doubts, our neuroses, our weird vain hopes, our halting inarticulateness, through which we try so hard to be understood and loved. I would characterize him as a dangerously funny writer; his gaze doesn't flinch as he looks at his characters, but throughout it also maintains an essential kindness. Risky, courageous stuff. Suffice to say, I'm a fan, and I expect that, once you've read this book, you will be too." George Saunders
