This was a solid quirky read about the entire world committing suicide at once except for one man who was so drunk he didn't "get that supernatural urge." After he wakes up he realizes the world is strange and he stumbles across a woman with reptile skin... and together they discover oddddddd things! This would be a great intro to Mellick as it is not gross, profane, or overly sexy... and his writing style and unique imagination is brought to the surface. 4 stars!
