Publisher's Summary

In search of the ferocious truth, some would call trying to channel the spirit of Dr. Hunter S. Thompson a fool’s errand. But these are desperate times. So settle in for this trilogy of uppers, downers, screamers, laughers from John Bruni (Tales of Questionable Taste), Kent Hill (Hercules with a Shotgun) and Kevin Candela (Weedeaters: The Complete Acropalypse) as they bring you just what the doctor ordered. “Yesterday’s weirdness is tomorrow’s reason why” – Hunter S. Thompson

Good stories!

I'm a huge fan of Kevin Candela and Kent Hill. I also loved Paul Burt's story. "Smoking pot in hell!" Paul Burt also did a good job of narrating!

3 Exciting and Entertaining Journeys

I have never read any Dr. Hunter S. Thompson's work, but after listening to these three stories and comparing their unifying themes, I think I have a sense of his work. The stories involved road trips where we encounter extremely eccentric and memorable characters, do a lot of drinking and drugs, and are exposed to graphic violence. They made me want to read his work. The narration was excellent. I really enjoyed how the POV character retained the same voice for all three stories, while a wide range of colorful voices were used to depict all the other characters the POV character meets. Thumbs up and highly recommend this audiobook.

Super Imaginative and Fun Listen

Hunter S. Thompson is one of those larger than life figures and who better than some authors of larger than life works to write a series of three novellas about Thompson in decidedly larger than life situations. It starts with John Bruni bringing Thompson and his Attorney on a journey mirroring Dante's in Hell and goes from there. The only commonalities are that there will be plenty of drugs, plenty of action, and a real agreement among the authors on how Hunter S. Thompson would act in these circumstances. Though they're three stories in three different settings you can believe the same character is in each which really cements it as a great collection of tales of a man whose certainly an inspiration to the authors collected in this work.

Decent listen

I received this promotional copy in exchange for an honest review. It’s a decent book not my favorite not the worst....good narration. First story is my favorite with Nixon in hell lol.

Keeps you laughing

This audio book contains three tales that unless you have a problem with graphic language will make you laugh your head off. The narrator does some really amazing voices.

good book

enjoyed the book funny in places

Disappointed

I was looking forward to this book, but, unfortunately found it mediocre
Some of it was a chore and if i had been reading this in hard copy i would have probably given up before finishing the first story
This book was given to me for free at my request and i provided this voluntary review
