Description

Tom Baker's The Boy Who Kicked Pigs is a subversive horror/fantasy story about an evil little boy who hates everyone around him. He embarks upon a revenge campaign, developing ever more imaginative nasty ends for each of his enemies. But one day he goes too far and when he crosses swords with a pack of cannibal rats, he meets a truly sickening end. The text is full of gore and action, but it is also intensely funny; the violence is strictly tongue-in-cheek and the jokes are designed for laughter out loud. Illustrated throughout with quirky, spiky line drawings, it will appeal to all those, from teenagers upwards, with a black sense of humour.
