Summary: Darkplace is back and better (or worse) than ever! In his latest novel (actually, two more novels are scheduled to come out before this summary is posted), Garth Marenghi returns to Darkplace with an exciting and original novel. More than just a way to squeeze a few more dollars out of the franchise and promote sales of the E-Oeuvre, this novel is a spine-tingling morality tale about life in a literal rat race. Giant, diabetic rats have taken over Darkplace. Can Dr. Rick Dagless save humanity once again whilst continuing to grieve for the family he tragically lost? Of course he can, but he'll need help from his friends: Sanchez, Liz, Reed and the Padre (mainly to provide humor, joke set-ups, exposition and sexual tension).
If you read only one book this year, you'll have read three fewer books than Garth has written in the time span. How does that make you feel about yourself? Not good? You've no one but yourself to blame. It isn't as though Garth isn't producing enough for you to read, you are simply managing your time poorly. Think on that as you get lost in the world of Darkplace: The Novel.
