The massiveness of this book is exceeded only by the planetary size of its titular character’s “wild stupid heart.” From page one with young Demon’s hyper-distinct voice, full of hilarious irreverence and sheer demonical perseverance, it was love at first read for this heady Dickensian coming-of-age novel set in the Appalachians, unrelenting in showing both the cruelty and kindness of people amid poverty, drugs, football, comic books. - James, Harry Hartog Bondi

The funniest tragic story I’ve ever read. I couldn’t put it down. It is a beautifully written debut novel by an incredibly imaginative author. If my world ever falls apart I hope Egg is there with me! - Michelle, Harry Hartog Bondi

This is how I love fiction (and in this case science fiction) to be written – here lays a story that develops as a fully realised world (utopian in model) with characters that you come to care for and get caught up in their daily happenstances, until suddenly the real truth is revealed, creating sense of what has been hidden and nibbling away at your perception that all is not what it seems – that THE WORLD IS NOT THE WORLD…. - Micheal, Harry Hartog Bondi
