After years of reading and study I have a deal with myself: I no longer read books that directly or indirectly tell me (or anyone else) that I'm (or they're) a second-class citizen. Time's up.
In picking this book up I was intrigued by the promise of weird and surreal creatures in context of an adventure...

After Goodreads popped this up in my recommendations so many times I decided to track down a copy. Fun book! At first I wasn't sure but the storytelling and art quickly grow in confidence as the book progresses. Love the characters! The humor is rather sex-obsessed but then what do you expect with a title...

I was never a big fan of this part of the story. When I first read it, I didn't mind, but on rereading it the first few times, I noticed how it changed the direction of the story completely.
It is good, and I'm glad to get more info on the spark and even the different characters, as well...
