Right out of the gate, I have to admit I'm not a G.G. Allin fan. Its not that I dislike him, its just that I never really bothered to find out about him other than knowing what everyone else knows about the guy: he shits on stage and throws it at the crowd.
Then M.P. Johnson decided to create a literary tribute to the guy. Suddenly I saw G.G. Allin in a different light. He was now a character, someone real yet fictional. Instead of a musician I didn't have interest in I saw the possibility of him being a tragic figure of literary legend and then I was intrigued.
So I sat down to read BLOOD FOR YOU. It did not disappoint. This is a weird fiction/splatterpunk/bizarro whack festival of fun. The contributing writers presented some very unlikely scenarios all staring the lovable poo flinger, G.G. Allin. You get exactly what you would expect. Lots of poop, lots of blood, lots of vulgarity and a healthy smattering of cum.
BLOOD FOR YOU is not going to turn the literary world on its head. But if you like G.G. Allin or really extreme gore fiction, you're going to enjoy the shit out of this book!

This book is exactly what you would expect. Maybe even more so.
