The Big Meat

<p><strong>From the godfather of bizarro fiction Carlton Mellick III award-winning author of <em>Quicksand House </em>and <em>Cuddly Holocaust</em> comes a "kaiju" tribute novel that explores the surreal aftermath of a giant monster attack.</strong></p><p>The creature was finally dead. After months of fighting it trying desperately to stop it as it rampaged across the American countryside turning city after city into a landscape of rubble we finally managed to beat the damned thing. We actually saved the human species. We survived.</p><p>But the corpse still lingers.</p><p>In the center of the city once known as Portland Oregon there lies a mountain of flesh. Hundreds of thousands of tons of rotting flesh. It has filled the city with disease and dead-lizard stench contaminated the water supply with its greasy putrid fluids clogged the air with toxic gasses so thick that you can't leave your house without the aid of a gas mask. And no one really knows quite what to do about it. A thousand-man demolition crew has been trying to clear it out one piece at a time but after three months of work they've barely made a dent. And then there's the junkies who have started burrowing into the monster's guts searching for a drug produced by its fire glands setting back the excavation even longer.</p><p>It seems like the corpse will never go away. And with the quarantine still in place we're not even allowed to leave. We're stuck in this disgusting rotten hell forever.</p><p><em>The Big Meat</em> is a gut-wrenching nerve-squirming survival story of loss addiction and claustrophobia.</p>
