Customer Reviews

RE: Some spiteful reviews of this book.

Palahniuk truly developed a compelling and bizarre background for his characters in this graphic novel. I think someone may have heard him criticize certain terms coined from his previous Fight Club installment being used by political zealots, citing their bigoted and often homophobic outlook and took it to heart. The "true" subtext of Fight Club changes itself to whoever reads it based on their emotional projections. And ultimately he was pressured into a sequel and decided to do something quite different to the original. If you want the same story over and over just read the one you're secure with because you "get it" by all means. But there's no one thing to get and to say you get it is missing the point. This is worth a read but don't expect the same story this isn't Michael Bay.

Doesn't live up to the first

Less of a story and more of a pretend story that serves as a weird postmodern rant about how Palahniuk's creation broke away from him and developed a life of its own thanks to fans of the movie that Just Didn't Get It. Will still be a disappointment to fans who did get it, since the story is basically a rehashing of the first book with a juvenile "heh heh heh let me ruin the thing you liked" attitude. It doesn't have a sensible conclusion. It doesn't really serve any purpose beyond making an easy buck on an established setting and acting as practical evidence for why there shouldn't have been a sequel to Fight Club.
