Synopsis
David Wong has updated the Lovecraft tradition and infused it with humor that rather than lessening the horror, increases it dramatically. Every time I set the book down down, I was wary that something really was afoot, that there were creatures I couldn't see, and that because I suspected this, I was next. Engaging, comic, and terrifying.-- Joe Garden , Features Editor, The Onion "Wong is like a mash-up of Douglass Adams and Stephen King... 'page-turner' is an understatement." -- Don Coscarelli , director, Phantasm I-V , Bubba Ho-tep "That rarest of things--a genuinely scary story."-- David Wellington , author of Monster Island, Vampire Zero "JOHN DIES AT THE END has a cult following for a reason: it's horrific, thought-provoking, and hilarious all at once. This is one of the most entertaining and addictive novels I've ever read."-- Jacob Kier, Publisher, Permuted Press STOP. You should not have touched this flyer with your bare hands. NO, don't put it down. It's too late. They're watching you. My name is David Wong. My best friend is John. Those names are fake. You might want to change yours. You may not want to know about the things you'll read on these pages, about the sauce , about Korrok , about the invasion, and the future. But it's too late. You touched the book. You're in the game. You're under the eye . The only defense is knowledge. You need to read this book, to the end. Even the part with the bratwurst. Why? You just have to trust me. The important thing is this: The drug is called Soy Sauce and it gives users a window into another dimension. John and I never had the chance to say no. You still do. I'm sorry to have involved you in this, I really am. But as you read about these terrible events and the very dark epoch the world is about to enter as a result, it is crucial you keep one thing in mind: None of this was my fault., Jon Dies at the End is a genre-bending, humorous account of two college drop-outs inadvertently charged with saving their small town--and the world--from a host of supernatural and paranormal invasions.

- l***o (11)- Feedback left by buyer.Past monthVerified purchaseI bought 3 items in the same transaction with the same seller. GREAT EXPERIENCE. All three (Spaceballs BR, Robot Chicken Star Wars 3 DVD & Star Wars Trilogy BR/DVD combo) arrived in excellent condition, just as described. Good packaging. NOT THE SELLER’S FAULT, but it took over 19 days to arrive to Mexico City. Shipping is slow to my country from the US. And expensive. It helped a little to buy them altogether.
- l***3 (19)- Feedback left by buyer.Past 6 monthsVerified purchaseVERY impressed with this seller!! I reached out before purchasing the DVD, and they answered me within a day. Friendly communication. Lightning fast shipping. And the DVD itself was as described--brand new and still in its original shrink wrap. I'm so grateful to have such a beautiful copy of this disc, thanks to this awesome seller! Thank you so much!!
- l***5 (505)- Feedback left by buyer.Past 6 monthsVerified purchaseBook arrived in excellent condition, looked new. It was not the edition pictured in the listing. Since I was buying it to complete a collection, I was looking for the same edition to match the others in the series. Seller promptly responded & refunded, so no complaint about the seller. This is not the first seller I've bought from that used a stock photo that didn't match the edition of the listing. I don't mind a stock photo, but wish booksellers would use the stock photo that matches.
