Book Review: Contacted Satan and burnt my eyebrows off
Summary: 5 Stars
"One time my friend accidentally contacted Satan and burnt his eyebrows off." This book is making me laugh, hard. Robert Hamburger's (of "Real Ultimate Power" fame) older cousin investigates a mysterious paranormal conspiracy that starts with a Hot Pocket that moved... on it's own. If you're familiar with the "Jim Anchower" columnist from "The Onion," imagine that type of narrator in a would-be "X-Files" novel. There are lines like, "I once lived in a duplex that had to be blessed," and "Parker brothers need to change their recommended age for Ouija Boards to 30 years and up. Seriously." It's completely idiotic and immature, like "Real Ultimate Power". And this is a good thing in this case, because the book is freakin' funny. It lacks something in the way of cohesion, but that actually works to the advantage of the author.
I cannot recommend this highly enough, four times yesterday I was laughing to myself sitting alone reading lines like, "In Cambodia, you can throw a grenade at water buffaloes for FIVE BUCKS." If you are interested in gurgling sounds, opening a portal to time/space, or face-punchings, you must read this book.
*Also, after I finished reading this book, I noticed that the lettering on the title glows in the dark. I noticed this when I saw the glowing words "GHOSTS/ALIENS" in the dark, which was frickin hilarious to me.
