From master of bizarro fiction Carlton Mellick III, author of the
international cult hits "Satan Burger" and "Adolf in Wonderland,"
comes a gritty urban fantasy unlike anything you've read before.
In a world where magic exists, spell-casting has become a
serious addiction. It ruins lives, tears families apart, and eats
away at the fabric of society. Those who cast too much are taken
from our world, never to be heard from again. They are sent to a
realm known as Hell's Bottom -- a sorcerer ghetto where everyday
life is a harsh struggle for survival. Porcelain dolls crawl
through the alleys like rats, arcane scientists abduct people from
the streets to use in their ungodly experiments, and everyone lives
in fear of the aristocratic race of spider people who prey on
citizens like vampires.
Told in a series of interconnected stories reminiscent of Frank
Miller's "Sin City" and David Lapham's "Stray Bullets," Carlton
Mellick III's "Hungry Bug" is an urban fairy tale that focuses on
the real life problems that arise within a fantastic world of
magic.
