by Jeremy Robert Johnson is a very cool post-apocalyptic piece of bizarro fiction. It's about this guy named Dean who makes himself a suit of cockroaches. This enables Dean to be one of the few who survive the nuclear holocaust that follows.Dean meets some other strange people in his ruined world. He meets (and his suit eats) the President, who survived by wearing a suit made out of Twinkies. Then he meets Yahmuhwesuh, who is an avatar of the collective unconsciousness that has been incarnated as a result of the nuclear destruction. Somehow, Yahmuhwehsus gives Dean the ability to communicate with his roaches, and Dean sets out on a journey for survival.
I really enjoyed this one. It's a great, exciting read. And it's funny, which is always a plus with me. While I really loved it, I will point out that it is contained in The Bizarro Starter Kit (Orange)
, which is actually cheaper than the individual volume, so it would probably be better to get that instead.
