The Trouble In Dogflat Hollow Kindle Edition

by Cameron Sword (Author, Illustrator) Format: Kindle Edition
3.9 3.9 out of 5 stars 59 ratings
See all formats and editions
A gritty and mildly irreverent satire detailing a shocking account of how the Earth was nearly annihilated on January 1, 1990. Some of the names have been changed in order to further protect the privacy of fictitious persons involved. Other names, including those belonging to Biblical personalities, have also been changed in order to safeguard and preserve formal reputations.

A pair of Biblical figures descended into an unsavory Los Angeles neighborhood, tasked with locating and redeeming the worst soul on the planet, hoping their efforts, if successful, might help convince the Universe's Chief Executive Officer to cancel or delay Earth's scheduled demise. They were clearly warned that their efforts should, in no way, interfere with that outcome, unaware that their endeavor - and that outcome - were indelibly linked.

The tone of the novel, described cinematically, might be as follows: If you dropped 'Oh God' and 'The Big Lebowski' into a blender at puree speed, the contents might emulsify into The Trouble In Dogflat Hollow.

5.0 out of 5 stars This book was recommended to me by someone whose opinion I highly value

This book was recommended to me by someone whose opinion I highly value. And boy am I glad I took his advice. Funny, thoughtful, and in my opinion, original. I am usually a person that likes her books in hard copy form, but once I started reading the kindle version, I did not want to stop. It is a good, quick read for anyone looking to be entertained. The subject matter is meant to be light at heart and give you a laugh, yet if you really think about it, this book also carries a powerful message. I also agree with a previous reviewer that this would make an incredible movie. I actually found myself thinking how each scene could translate to the big screen as I was reading. I will definitely be looking for more works from the authors. Thanks again KC for the recommendation!

4.0 out of 5 stars Mildly Irreverent? That doesn't cut it....

It's hard these days to find any writings that poke religion right in the eye. Wingnuts will hate this book as far as they can understand it. But if you think for yourself, enjoy symbolism and metaphors, and aren't afraid to entertain your own doubts about God and organized religion for a few hours, this is a book for you. Imagine the universe as a large company, God as the CEO, and Earth as an under-performing regional office about to be closed. Jesus is a Senior VP, Satan a disgruntled former employee. St. Peter is a bureaucrat. Reincarnation is an on and off-again policy, used to relieve population pressure in other territories. And that's just the background....the story itself.....well......just read it!

This book made me laugh out loud a lot and stay up half the night to finish it! However, there was quite a bit of foul language, and some people might think it is a bit sacrilegious. If you might be offended by either of those, don't get this book. If you can get past those, enjoy!

As a Christian I was pleasantly surprised about the palatability of this novel. It wasn't what I was expecting at all. Kudos to the author for finding a way to be funny and provocative without being offensive. Fabulous well-written work. I highly recommend it.

Imagine Raymond Chandler and Dave Barry collaborated on a spoof about The Second Coming. Can't picture it? Don't try. Just buy this book, set aside a few hours to laugh your ass off, and get reading.

This would make a fantastic movie, by the way.

Controversial but worth reading. These events could happen but we hope they don't. Too bad about the movie idea, it would make an interesting film.

I really wanted to like this book. I thought the irreverence would be funny. I really enjoyed the Netflix series "Lucifer" and was hoping for something like that.
I struggled through to 57% and then decided I just couldn't take anymore!
All the characters seem really stupid, or is it the writing?
I just didn't like it!
