Night of the Rat by Tanya ThompsonMy rating: 4 of 5 stars
Night of the Rat by Tanya Thompson is a amalgamation of dark comedy and satire. Though the opening scene is rather dark, grisly, and disturbing, as a rat enter his death throes, the rest of the book bounces along in a bizarre way. This makes you either laugh or cry, as you enter this strange world of Silas and T. They're animal lovers, yet they must dispose of rats who have taken over, simply because the cats are not doing their jobs. This is dark and twisted comedic writing, and one of two things will happen; you will be drawn to it or baffled by it, either way it's hard to remain neutral about the story or the talent of the author. Highly recommend for a fun and enticing short read.
