Bloody good fun. I was so excited to see that I could get an ARC of Jeff Strand’s newest on Netgalley! I always know I’m in for a gory, fun ride with his books. This one was a little different from his usual, simply for the fact I could almost see this happening. Video games are definitely an addictive thing to use. Jeff of course had some funny stuff in there as usual. Fun horror is probably my favorite genre of horror stories, so I will always pick up anything Jeff Strand writes. Thank you to Netgalley for the early read.

When I saw that Jeff Strand posted ARCs for his upcoming book, I had to jump at the chance. Huge thanks to Mr. Strand and Dead Sky Publishing for the copy.

Much like the game Fun Times at the Bloodbath, this was very hard to put down. It’s a classic Strand novel: stupidly enjoyable fun. If you have read Jeff Strand books in the past you know what kind of book you are getting. Nothing that you stay up late at night thinking about, but something you love recommending to friends of stupid horror and humor. The multiple POVs showing how the game tears the world apart was a great touch. I’ll pick up anything Strand writes, and while this might not be his absolute best work, it’s still a damn good time!"
