Reviews

"When we recompose ourselves on distant planets we cannot help but re-inscribe an inner landscape in which we battle the familiar bug-eyed monsters: anxiety, unfaithfulness, regret, high-school drama students, interstellar Mormons, and ourselves. All we can hope for it is to find ourselves resensitized and that is Mr. Gammarino's triumph in this richly funny spaceship of a book." -- Paul Park, author of All Those Vanished Engines and The Princess of Roumania "Dylan Greenyears' story is so full of humanity that the otherworldly dimensions, alien characters and alternate histories become a well-made container for the breadth and scope of our most keen longings. Effortlessly original, sharply drawn, comically wise, King of the Worlds launches the reader across the cosmos on a hilariously tormented and seriously fun adventure." -- A.A. Attanassio, author Radix and The Last Legends of Earth "Smart, sharp and funny. A dazzling tour of the multiverse." -- Robert Onopa, author of The Pleasure Tube and 2020 "King of the Worlds is an amazingly imaginative, whirling performance of a novel, at turns firmly grounded and absurd, hilarious and heartbreaking. M. Thomas Gammarino is not like other writers. And that's a good thing: there's so much energy, madness and intelli- gence in this book...a thrill and a joy to read." -- Peter Mountford, author of The Dismal Science and A Young Man's Guide to Late Capitalism "...hints of other greats like Kurt Vonnegut and David Foster Wallace...represent some of the funnest aspects of a novel that takes its fun pretty seriously...It's almost like looking back in time to a literary landscape that is long gone now. Or maybe into the future." -- Art Edwards, Entropy Magazine
