Other Editions of this Title

A cross between Something Wicked This Way Comes by Ray Bradbury and Love Bites by Christopher Moore. Imaginative and funny, with an unloveable (and seemingly unloving) anti-hero, Johannes Cabal is about nothing less than beating the Devil, and Life Itself, at its own game.

Other Editions of this Title

This book was amazing. It's a sort-of vampire book for people who like Cormac McCarthy. It's gonna be one of the big hits this summer, so don't be afraid of the page count!

The Manual of Detection (Paperback)

By Jedediah Berry

$12.00

ISBN-13: 9780143116516
Availability: On Our Shelves Now
Published: Penguin (Non-Classics), 1/2010

Other Editions of this Title

The Manual of Detection is a hard-boiled detective novel, but one that reads like it was passed through the imaginative mind of someone like David Lynch or Tom Waits. All the classic noir elements are present; yet it all seems like a dark dream that won't let you wake up. This book defies genre in its originality. Dazzling!
