Beklediğim kadar iyi olmasa da bu kitabı gerçekten çok beğendim. Gerçi bellek şeridinde iyi bir yolculuk yaptı!

A friend of mine who loved Dame Agatha said that after he read this one, he couldn't read any more of hers, since he couldn't imagine anything ever surpassing it.

Our favorite gonzo journalist is at it again, only this time the madness exists outside his head! Reeling from the fame and notoriety caused by his Vegas book, the Duke reinvents himself and becomes Uncle Lono. He strikes eastward on the corpse of the American Dream in search of the American Nightmare. He encounters bizarre situations which he takes in stride because there is always cause for great and terrible violence, and because he's got Wild Turkey and Heineken in hand. The drugs help too, of course. Especially the fungi from Yuggoth. The American Nightmare Uncle Lono discovers is something so terrible and pervasive, he decides he's the only one mad enough to fight it! This book is very well written. I have not read Fear and Loathing in Las Vegas, but I imagine the style is very similar. This is fan fiction at its best, written with loving regard and due respect for the original gonzo journalist. The Lovecraftian aspect blends beautifully with the inherent insanity of the Duke's rambling. Mamatas and Keene take great pleasure in bringing us Thompson's last adventure, that one last hoorah before age and pain takes its toll across the long years towards that final, fearless moment. Deliciously depraved, hilarious in its many contradictions, and relentlessly inventive, this is not a book I'll easily forget. *Courtesy of Netgalley*

This book is like a really good book gone horribly wrong. It's like taking the compelling yet hopelessly overpoetic final act of Wicked, and stretching it throughout an entire book. It's a shame, because the concept is so interesting, and the plot is so interesting. It just gets lost in Maguire's self-interest.
