What Reviewers Are Saying

"Carl Hiaasen once again produces a devilishly funny caper. In Sick Puppy, he shows himself to be a comic writer at the peak of his powers."
-- Publisher's Weekly

"Hiaasen's books are so much fun, it's a wonder they're still legal."
-- Newsday

"Hiaasen's usual cast of zany characters shows up en masse in Sick Puppy, a frolicking sendup of ecological subterfuge, Florida's fabled politics and downright human foibles."
-- USA Today

"Hiaasen delivers everything his fans want. He's still funny as hell and mad as hell; his myriad plot twists won't give you a moment's peace, and his characters are kinkier than anything you could order on late night TV."
-- Faith Gay, Miami Herald


What Booksellers Are Saying

"Carl outdoes himself in another laugh-out-loud tale of eco-warriors vs. an array of twisted politicians, lobbyists, and psychopaths. Skink, that modern day hero, versus an ex-drug-smuggling developer with a Barbie fetish. -- What more could you ask for?"
-- Britton Trice, Garden District, New Orleans, LA

"Every year some new writer (i.e. Tim Dorsey) is compared to Hiaasen, but NO ONE writes bizarre crime and characters better than the original. This book rocks. His best since Skin Tight. Non-stop, weird, violent, and sexy. You know who is a real sick puppy? Carl Hiaasen."
-- Tom Sollars, B & N, Newport Beach, CA

"As usual a great time -- Hiaasen's strange cast of characters and wonderfully moral theme -- can't wait to get it in the store."
-- Barbara Kelly, USM Portland Bookstore, Portland, ME
