This darkly offbeat novel opens with the narrator, Wallace Black, as the target of the school bully's violence. After suffering a horrendous beating, Black goes home to his equally abusive family. As a punishment for fighting at school, his mother straps a set of grotesque horns to the top of his head. He is unsure of where the horns came from. They have always been in the house. And they contain a power no one could have expected. Let Andersen Prunty (ZEROSTRATA, MORNING IS DEAD, and THE BEARD) guide you through a sometimes hilarious, sometimes violent and terrifying coming-of-age Midwestern gothic novel.

The strength of this book's narration upholding the oppressive and cynical tone unfortunately can't quite make up for the fairly nihilistic coming of age story this tried to be. Squidapus' favorite type of books involve a down to earth or character driven use of the supernatural; and for a story about a boy who has to wear a pair of horns he can't take off there sure is a lot of meandering, go nowhere dialogue and unsatisfying...um...most of it.
