Joseph:
Zerodrone seems to have found some of the worst of it.  Everything else I've sampled from it has been pretty dire as well.

No, actually, a whole lot of people on the internet love the book.

Then again, a lot of people like 4chan, so clearly the internet's opinion is a bit borked.

I can understand why some people might like this "novel", but if you care to read some examples of a similar style done much better, feel free to send me a private message and I will clue you in.

This is probably because everyone thought it was a joke about suckin' dicks.


What I'm saying here is that reading John Dies At The End is like suckin' dicks.

I'm confused over whether you mean that's good or bad.

I read JD, and it was painful. It did have a couple of amusing points, but I think the only reason I read through was because it reminds me vaguely of Clive Barker. (sorry Clive)

I Just finished it about a minute ago and man, i don't see how anyone could not enjoy reading this. I mean, sure the authors writing style is casual and silly, but it's also darn clever. And the way he switches between horror and comedy so fluidly, I have never read a book that did that before. In the past couple hours I have rofl'ed as well as nearly pissed my pants in terror. Most entertainging thing I've read in a while.
