Hitler has escaped. Twelve of them, to be precise, each cloned from the original and hiding in the bizarre American underground.
Hiram Grange has been tasked with hunting them down. The only problem: he's hit rock bottom. His worst binge ever --- a mad dance with absinthe, opium and depression...
On the heels of the release of
Hiram Grange and the Village of the Damned (
B&N,
Amazon,
SP), Scott Christian Carr's wildly original novella,
Hiram Grange and the Twelve Little Hitlers, has already begun to create excitement among advance readers.
Hitlers is the second installment in the
Scandalous Misadventures of Hiram Grange series.One of those readers is none other than
Lloyd Kaufman, President of
Troma Entertainment and Creator of the
Toxic Avenger. Kaufman read Hitlers, and said it was:
"More fun than a barrel full of Hitlers... The best novel since Don Quixote!"Greg Hall, the master of ceremonies over at the
Funky Werepig radio show was equally impressed:
“Somewhere in the Underworld, Lovecraft is grinning with delight and Hunter S. Thompson is raising his bottle high. You won’t find a darker, more twisted character than Hiram Grange.”
But the lavish praise and adoration doesn't stop there! Renowned sci-fi author
Patricia Anthony, who wrote
Cold Allies, Brother Termite, Conscience of the Beagle, Happy Policeman, Cradle of Splendor, God's Fires, Flanders, and Eating Memories said this about
Hitlers:
"Scott Christian Carr is one of the most insightful writers I know. He's also one of the funniest. Reading 'Twelve Little Hitlers' never fails put you under an intellectual pleasure-dome, which is great in and of itself --- The unexpected surprise is, you'll also laugh your ass off!"
Stay tuned for the January 2010 release of Carr's
Hiram Grange and the Twelve Little Hitlers!
