Eli Roth is a self-loathing adolescent savior living in a Washington, D.C. concentration camp with his terminally ill mother and the little brother he brought back to life. When Eli's mother dies, he must fulfill the promise he made to her to escape with Daniel and show him that life can be good, even in their bleak and treacherous post-apocalyptic world. But when things don't work out at their grandmother's house, Eli and Daniel hit the road and are taken in by a tennis-obsessed cult of lesser gods, who interpret Eli's epileptic seizures and overly sensitive palate as sure signs that the boy is the Antichrist and must be destroyed. ANTICHRIST SUPERTASTER is a powerful book, so original, filled with both wonder and horror, hope and fear. It's a funny, moving, scathing commentary - shades of Maus and Jojo Rabbit, the bastard love child of Chuck Palahniuk and Irvine Welsh.
- Richard Thomas, Bram Stoker, Shirley Jackson, and Thriller Award finalist Funny, scary, and at moments painfully relevant to modern times, ANTICHRIST SUPERTASTER is a dark, dystopia, punk-pop classic. A road trip from Hell that's a joy to travel.
- Brendan Deneen, bestselling author of ALIEN: UNCIVIL WAR and THE CHRYSALIS The most original post-apocalyptic novel I've read in years. Shannon Barracato delivers an all-too-believable dystopia with gallows humor and vivid imagination in this genre-defying tale of magic, mayhem, and brotherly love. True horrors abound, but the darkness has a beating heart.
- Douglas Wynne, author of RED EQUINOX In a climate where wholly unoriginal fiction is often celebrated as genius, Shannon Barracato's ANTICHRIST SUPERTASTER is a deep breath of fresh dystopian air. I've honestly never read anything quite like it. Barracato is an exciting and unique voice, and her latest novel is a testament not only to her talent, but to a fully realized artistic vision. Deeply unsettling, darkly funny, smart and thought-provoking, ANTICHRIST SUPERTASTER will leave you reeling and questioning all the so-called 'rules' in the best possible way.
- Greg F. Gifune, bestselling author of THE BLEEDING SEASON and SAVAGES Shannon Barracato writes in a lava-hot fever of psychotic revelation, making you wince at the words around the corner for fear of getting singed. She's an eyes-wide-open poet of the under-mind and a priestess of the oversoul. Overall: a goddamn excellent writer who makes you wonder if her prose is actually, frighteningly alive, staring at you from the midnight corner in the everlasting dark.
- Eric Shapiro, author of IT'S ONLY TEMPORARY and RED DENNIS
