This novel has made of me a true believer in slavery and fascism as positive forces. At least, I'm now convinced by the very fact that this book was published that the free market has failed us utterly and it's time to enforce some discipline on the whole enterprise.

The Dialog was written well, especially so for the mime character.
A standard for all text books.
Larry Moe and Curly's cautionary tale about the plight of an Ostrich Farmer about to lose his farm at the hands of an industry giant who uses 'small folk' to produce amusements for children. The Farmer faces threats of aerial bombardment by the dangerous yet cute flying antler circus. L M and C run around and desperately try to catch the dirty bombs in pails before the Ostriches are pelted and utterly demorilized.

You should let this book age like a fine wine. Or vinegar.
This is a book best reserved for special occassions, such as Armageddon or when you find out that your accountant has been embezzling. It'll make those problems seem trivial in comparison.
An extremely powerful book -- I'd estimate 3.7 therms upon complete combustion.
Some have judged this novel suitable only as fish wrap. I think it prudent to qualify this by stating that it depends entirely on which kind of fish.
It is the thought that there might've been books like this in the collection that gives some small measure of solace as I mourn the loss of the library at Alexandria.
Remember when I warned you after this author's first book? Well, see! I told you not to encourage him.

The one advantage I can imagine from having finished this book is that I no longer have trouble pronouncing words like Mrpxp!vnckjvr. In fact, all words sound like Mrpxp!vnckjvr to me now.

(Scopatz, "inferno" and "drum solo" blow me away! I'm desperate to write the books to deserve those encomiums!)

Here's an obscure one: "Comes highly recommended by Jack Chick!"
"Just when you think it's getting good, you realize you were reading the author's bio on the back cover, but couldn't distinguish it from the rest of the book."

This plot wouldn't thicken if you dumped a whole truckload of cornstarch in it.
Reads like the novelization of the back of that tag one finds in shirts.
Way beyond gripping and well into debilitating abdominal cramps.

The author's philosphy rings through like the cheap electronic door chimes at a Chinese take-out.

This is a book that takes careful aim, fires, and still manages to fatally stab itself. . .
Upon further consideration, I feel it is my duty to alert the reader that the above is NOT a metaphor.

Readers Digest 'condensed' this book to the essential bits...it appeared in November's issue as one of those footnote jokes they use as filler.
