Book Synopsis
MONKEY STEW
A Whisanant Mythos Sampler
Fifteen books' worth of glorious depravity, boiled down into one deliriously overstuffed pot.
Ever wanted to dive into the sprawling, tiki-soaked, cosmically unhinged saga of Doyce Whisanant — book bastard, prosthetic repo man, reluctant philosopher-drunkard — but didn't know where to start? Monkey Stew is your entry point and your initiation rite. This compilation ladles out the choicest cuts from the first fifteen volumes of the Whisanant Mythos, then throws in six never-before-published short stories and an entire novella you can't get anywhere else — the connective tissue for a major turning point in the saga, and a preview of chaos yet to come.
Expect Tiki gods with grudges, interdimensional menace, backwoods philosophy delivered at gunpoint-volume, and prose that reads like Hunter S. Thompson got marooned on a South Pacific island with a case of rum and an axe to grind against polite society. It's ribald. It's profane. It's occasionally profound in spite of itself. It is, in short, an acquired taste that — once acquired — you won't be able to stop craving.
Monkey Stew isn't just a sampler platter. It's the whole demented banquet in miniature — a perfect first bite for newcomers, and a essential course for anyone already hooked on the Mythos.
Pull up a stump, grab a bowl. The stew's on.
