Hammers is a brutally funny book about the will to power, the mistakes of big science, and a rogue shark's eternal quest for fresh squid. Hammers follows a young rocker, his sister, their mutual girlfriend and three dumb junkies throughout their mutation from hapless humans into intelligent hammerhead sharks.
span style="font-size: 12pt; font-family: Arial;">Nico, a young geneticist, perfects a human anti-shock serum made with hammerhead shark DNA. But the FDA won't let Nico try it on humans yet because of possible unstable genetic mutations. They want years of animal tests before she'll be allowed to try her stunning invention! But Nico's an ambitious pup and decides, what the hell, she'll try it on herself. Should be safe enough. Sure. Except it seems the lab's made a little, ahem, mistake--instead of grafting on a tiny slice of hammerhead DNA to that serum, they've glued the entire code on. Mak | |  | | Hello Devilfish!
Hello Devilfish! is a first-person (or first-fish) account of a giant blue Japanese movie monster stingray’s attack on contemporary Tokyo and his tragic morph into human form. Using elements of Japanese shock-pop and the infamous Hello Kitty meme, the story is told in comic narrative from the stingray’s point of view as he gleefully creams Tokyo into rubble.
