14. Sandman Slim - Richard Kadrey

This book was a hell of a lot of fun. Not as meaty or crunchy as I'd like, but so full of snark and cool stuff that I didn't mind.

15. A Book of Tongues - Gemma Files

This book, on the other hand, has meat. And crunch. And blood. And just about any other viscera you care to name.

This book does not, as

matociquala might say, shit puppies and unicorns. Instead it lays eggs in your brain, and when the eggs hatch your skull splits open and a thousand shiny green scorpions and spiders swarm out of your eye sockets, and when they've eaten the last of your brains, a spider spins a web in the hollowed-out curve of your skull, and the web reads Some book. In Nahuatl.
