Grundish and Askew by Lance Carbuncle

I signed up to win this book from Goodreads. I didn't win it, but the author sent me a message and said I could get a discount and signed copy if I went to a certain link to buy it, so I did!
From Goodreads: Strap on your athletic cup and grab a barf bag. The Dr. Reverend Lance Carbuncle is going to kick you square in the balls and send you on a wild ride that may or may not answer the following questions: what happens when two white trash, trailer park-dwelling, platonic life partners go on a moronic and misdirected crime spree?; can their manly love for each other endure when one of them suffers a psychological bitch-slap that renders him a homicidal maniac?; will a snaggletoothed teenage prostitute tear them apart?; what is the best way to use a dead illegal alien to your advantage in a hostage situation?; what's that smell?; and, what the hell is Alf the Sacred Burro coughing up? Carbuncle's latest offering, Grundish and Askew, ponders these troubling questions and more. So sit down, put on some protective goggles, and get ready for Carbuncle to blast you in the face with a warm load of fictitious sickness.

  3. I don't even know what to say about the last book. What an attention-grabbing description, to say the least. I'm looking forward to your thoughts on that one!
