Product Description

Product Description

Do you want to recycle but aren't sure how? Are you concerned that a potential suitor may be a vampire? Have you attended a job interview only to be greeted by Hideous Telepathic Space-faring Lizardmen in Mansuits? The Guide to Moral Living in Examples educates on these and many more common moral conundrums, offering bite-sized advice for nearly every improbable situation. Fueled by years of unintentional research on the connections between robotic bears, talking tattoos, and the best type of soap to remove irremovable rings, Greg X. Graves gives simple, friendly yet essential guidance on the twisted path to moral life. With an introduction by Brenton Harper-Murray and stunning illustrations by Jeff Bent, this anthology is a must-have for young and old aspiring moralists alike.

3.0 out of 5 stars Maybe aa little to strange 22 Feb 2012
Format:Kindle Edition|Amazon Verified Purchase
Well what can I say. This book was completely crazy, weird, like no other book I have read before. A first I liked the strangeness. It was kind of funny, especially when the morals at the end seemed to have barely anything to do with the story- or even when they had to much to do with the story! But after a while it began to seem just a little to strange- almost as if Graves was trying hard to be unconventional. Now I like things that are a bit beyond the norm but by the time I was about halfway through I was beginning to long for something a bit more, well, `normal'.

By themselves the stories were entertaining and funny. Graves use of imagery was quite incredible in parts, and even though the stories he told were completely unbelievable he wrote them in such a way that made them quite easy to imagine. I think my main real problem was that I read the book all in one go. I imagine if I had read each story as an individual story, alongside another book, I would have found it easier.

5.0 out of 5 stars Madcap Chaos Spanning Every Genre 11 Sep 2012
By PoorBrenton - Published on Amazon.com
Format:Paperback
How Greg was able to wrangle all of these strange ideas into one book is beyond me. There's sword and sorcery, noir, sci-fi, horror, all stitched together with tongue always firmly in cheek.

An amazing mashup of humor and imagination that is worth far more than the asking price.
3.0 out of 5 stars Seriously funny... 16 May 2011
By emmyson - Published on Amazon.com
Format:Paperback
I wasn't quite sure what to expect with this, and it definitely wasn't what I thought. I was pleasantly surprised. It was laugh-out-loud funny.

When your family comes to investigate the source of your raucous laughter, you know it's good stuff.

Here's the thing: the stories are COMPLETELY ridiculous. There's not a shred of logic in this book. That's definitely a part of its appeal. Seriously hilarious.

I mean really, who HASN'T worried about Lizardmen wearing Mansuits?! Who HASN'T wondered what they do when they sleepwalk?!

This book answers those questions and more...all with a moral.

Seriously, this is hilarious. Pick it up for a great, quick laugh.

(side note: if you're sensitive, you'll need to watch for some language about halfway through)
