About this product

Product Information

One of them is a bestselling Pulitzer Prize-winning humorist. The other is a winner of the Thurber Prize for American Humor. Together, they form the League of Comic Justice, battling evildoers in the name of . . . Okay, we made that line up. What they do form is a writing team of pure comic genius, and they will have you laughing like idiots. Philip Horkman is a happy man-the owner of a pet store called The Wine Shop, and on Sundays a referee for kids' soccer. Jeffrey Peckerman is the sole sane person in a world filled with goddamned jerks and morons, and he's having a really bad day. The two of them are about to collide in a swiftly escalating series of events that will send them running for their lives, pursued by the police, soldiers, terrorists, subversives, bears, and a man dressed as Chuck E. Cheese. Where that all takes them you can't begin to guess, but the literary journey there is a masterpiece of inspiration and mayhem. But what else would you expect from the League of Comic Justice?

Reviews
"A novel who those who love one-liners, outrageous characters and loopy plots. An antidote, if one is needed, to gritty urban realism." - Kirkus Reviews, "A screwball comedy of errors and a rare political satire. Barry and Zweibel bring us what we need: comic relief."-- The Boston Globe, "Creative, unusual and over the top. The outlandish scenarios are certainly entertaining, and as bizarre as their adventures are, there's a strange sense of believability to the story. That helps keep the story fresh and the pages turning."- Associated Press, "The aptly titled Lunatics delivers exactly what one would expect from two award-winning humorists: an outrageously funny, irreverent, over-the-top comic mystery. How funny is Lunatics ? It's the sort of book that inspires snorts, may make you spit out your soda and burst into hysterical laughter in public."-- The Miami Herald, "Creative, unusual and over the top. The outlandish scenarios are certainly entertaining, and as bizarre as their adventures are, there's a strange sense of believability to the story. That helps keep the story fresh and the pages turning."-- Associated Press, "Putting Barry and Zweibel in close proximity is sort of like juggling torches while walking a wire over a vat of kerosene; sooner or later, there's gonna be a big, big bang. A rocket-fueled romp whose pages practically turn themselves."-- BookPage, "Putting Barry and Zweibel in close proximity is sort of like juggling torches while walking a wire over a vat of keroseâ‰ sooner or later, there's gonna be a big, big bang.

REDICULOUSLY FUNNY
This book should be read by every adult. I found myself laughing out loud many times. I would say it should be made into a movie but it needs to be made into a series.
