ABC Flower of Doom reviews

Post by dANdeLION »

FoD has been out for a few years now, so I thought it would be fun to see what the experts had to say about it!

Dandelion don't tell no lies
Dandelion will make you wise
Tell me if she laughs or cries
Blow away dandelion


I'm afraid there's no denying
I'm just a dandelion
a fate I don't deserve.

"Before any entertainment can be gleaned, FOD enforces a kind of chaos of dementia that ensnares the reader with an aggressive choke-hold and then squeezes until all of the air is sucked out of the victim's thrashing and spasmodic brain, causing an acute intellectual blackout."

Don't bother trying to understand what Flower Of Doom is about. The book has no plot, no passion and no purpose.

"Like a fool who believes himself a king, FOD is a book filled with words but very little meaning. The writing is inept and riddled with grammatical errors as if it had been edited by a elementary school dropout."

"Most of the critics that we've contacted refused to review Flower of Doom, because of the rumors that anyone who reads it will kill themselves in one week. But this is simply not true -- no one has lasted more than three days."

"Only someone who has mined the darkest corners of their soul, refined the gleanings with pain, deprivation and despair, and then forged something bright and new in the crucible of compelling purpose could have written this story. Unfortunately, neither of the authors have. Not remotely."

"Referencing the old saying about 1000 monkeys working for 1000 years replicating Shakespeare's works, Flower of Doom reads like 2 monkeys working for two minutes and producing just enough excrement to gleefully fling into the reader's face and laughing."
