The irreverent union of George Carlin and Dave Barry with a just a hint of Tucker Max. Something to entertain, inspire and offend everybody. "A rambling collection of essays, anecdotes, and assorted madness. The humor often borders on the demented, sort of a cross between David Sedaris and Happy Tree Friends. If you're looking for something well outside the mainstream, this will probably amuse you." -Melydia Utter Randomonium "Here we have a collection of strange little tales, fully of the wacky and the wild. Now, some are hilarious, others are quirky and strange, like the author says, it's like a video montage." -Martin Gibbs Voltaire's Reviews "Each small story that makes up the book is filled with dark satirical humor, and the stories in Merciful Flush are morbidly addicting." -Olivia Morley The Verb: Univ. of New Hampshire "It isn't often that I pick up a book and feel that it's so wrong and yet so right. The stories all have a certain amount of quirkiness and snark that makes them fun to read." -Donald L Pitsiladis Casa de Pitsiladis "Humor is realizing the frankness and humility in our lives. "Merciful Flush" is a fine pick for those looking for mirth and memoir." -Midwest Book Review " An easy and compulsive read, Merciful Flush by Lance Manion is a blogging success story and definitely worth picking up for any travel reading. Very very very very imaginative, I can't believe what is now in my mind that wasn't there before." -Anya On Starships and Dragonwings "So, if you enjoy David Sedaris, Tina Fey or movies like The Hangover, Bridesmaids, or even Your Highness, it is quite likely that you'll enjoy Lance Manion's collection." -Zserilyn Finney The John Hopkins News-Letter "Funny. Twisted. Real." -Nanci Page Readers "The humor at times is way out there and may be a bit much for some readers. This is certainly one of those books that at time had me rolling with laughter while other times I was cringing." -Rita Rita Reviews "They are off-putting but also entertaining, and you cannot look away. If you enjoy black humor then definitely give this short story compilation a read." -Dan Lanelotti The Snapper: Millersville University
