In Which I Am The Cause Of Hyperthyroidism

So I've gotten a couple reviews for CITY OF THE LOST already and the book's not even out for another month.

Last week I was, as the cool kids say, Klausnered. I can't profess to fully understand what was written in that review or why it sounds like it was dictated to a drunken Swede, but here's the takeaway:

It's... positive. Ish. I think. Pretty sure. The words "brisk", "engaging", "cannibalizing" and "hooker" are used. And I don't know about you but stick those four words in the same sentence and you got my attention, lemme tell ya.

And yesterday I got a starred review from Kirkus.

So I hear this Kirkus star thing is good. I can't read the whole review 'cause I don't have a subscription and it doesn't come out to the proles like you and me for a few more weeks.

But, and this is the important thing, they called it, "a remarkable debut" and "eye-bulging".

EYE-BULGING, people. That's me. I am the Avatar of Eye-Bulging! I'm like the Heat Miser for Grave's Disease.

And you know what that means?

It means I get a THEME SONG! Well, that and a fucked up haircut, but that's nothing new.

Now I just gotta figure out something that rhymes with Marty Feldman.
