Customer Reviews

Great Read.

At first, I didn't know what to expect. However, upon opening the book and reading just the first few pages, I knew I was in for a treat. I was immediately sucked into the story and felt like I was in Glousta and hanging with the crew. I was chuckling through the whole book. Everyone should pick this book up, it makes for a great read.

Now That's Comedy

Great Book!! Laughed the whole way through, pass the beer nuts

Go Glosta!

Absolutely hilarious! This book is exactly what fishtown is all about!

Happy accident

I stumbled across this via search engine accidentally, but was intrigued. Anyone who has the huevos to write a spoof on subject matter like the Perfect Storm (terrible movie, by the way) deserves $20.99 and a few hours of my time. The book, of course, is silly -- but it IS a spoof. And anyone who grew up in a small town can certainly identify with Curcuru's portryal of Gloucter and its natives. I look forward to his next work.Also, in response to the "Jerk" reviewer: I wouldn't go so far as to call you a Marxist, but you are being a bit obtuse. Apparently you didn't read the Disclaimer on pages 21-27. Or perhaps even the book. Maybe just the cover. And you know how that saying goes.

1st ammendment...

To the Marxist that wrote the "Jerk" review...Get over it. It is a book of fiction and is a perfect example of the 1st ammendment and the authors right to put this book out. When you get back to your socialist homeland tell all the marxist pigs I said hi. By the way: It is your right to NOT buy this book. I think making threats to people as you have is sad and shows how uneducated fools would react to a work of literature. Happy new year!
