Book Description
Tender and satiric, hilarious and humane,
Dogwalker plunks readers down in a land of misfits and the circumstantially strange–where one young man buys drugs from a dealer who locks his customers in a closet, while another lands a cat-faced circus freak for a roommate, and yet another must choose between his pregnant wife and the ten-pound slug he’s convinced will bring him a fortune. And throughout these stories moves a divinely inspired collection of dogs: three-legged, no-legged, dogs that sing, that talk, and that give birth to humans. Brilliant, perplexing, and moving, this is a daring debut that strolls along society’s fringes and unearths strange beauty among its misfits

A Satisfying Collection of Surreal Short Stories.......2005-04-22
What do a ten-pound slug, a three-legged dog, and a circus family that resembles cats have in common? Welcome to the world of Dogwalker, a collection of 12 short stories by Arthur Bradford, where digging beneath the underbelly of society is par for the course. The characters seem to have left the set of a David Lynch movie, perhaps Lost Highway - one's not quite sure whether life is real or just a dream.
Yes, dogs play a major role in several of the stories in the small volume. Besides the three-legged dog, there are mutant puppies, a refrigerated dead puppy and a breed of half-dog, half-human species. The latter appears in the story, Dog. The narrator begins, "No doubt you'll think I'm strange when I tell you I've been making love with my girlfriend's dog." Strange is an understatement as the story progresses into a science-fiction realm akin to H.G. Wells' novel, The Island of Dr. Moreau.
Disturbing as the thought of procreation via bestiality may be, it is the detachment of the protagonist in each story that will produce palpable shivers. In the opening story, Catface, a blasé attitude is apparent as the main character lists a montage of strange roommates he has shared a studio apartment with. "He breathed very heavily through his nose and when he spoke the words came out in high-pitched squeaks. Thurber moved quickly with jerks and twists like spasms and for a while I thought he was diseased." Thurber also had a strong dislike for houseplants (meaning he would toss them out the window upon first sight).
The stories are dark but there are enough peculiar laughs to keep the book from falling into pure drama. The characters are fresh and imaginative; Bradford brings them fully alive through precise dialog. You may want to peek ahead at times to satisfy your piqued curiosity. The O. Henry Award winning author has written about the extremes of society with honesty and clarity. However, there is no pity shown for the lives showcased, instead a notion of acceptance rings throughout the book. This is most evident in the story, Bill McQuill. Half a man would have succumbed to their fate with bitterness and anger (bad pun intended here, you'll have to read the story).
Dogwalker can be easily read within an afternoon as the author holds our interest in the motley bunch. Be prepared to be saddened, cheered and lose your breath for a bit while reading this satisfying surreal book of short stories.

Fantastically absurd.......2004-08-31
The Dogwalker is a collection of short first-person stories that mostly revolve around dogs. In perhaps the most bizarre of the bunch, the narrator has sex with his girlfriend's dog, which spawns a tiny man and results in several generations of dog/men mutations. Another story, my favorite, starts: "It seemed like a pretty simple trick to me. My friend Robert would hold the apple in his mouth while I, steady-handed, carved his initials into the piece of fruit with a chainsaw." Bradford walks you into bizzaro world slowly, starting out with stories I thought were a little odd and progressing to some of the weirdest stories I've ever read. What I love about the stories is their assumptiveness. It is never questioned whether or not chainsawing initials into an apple in someone's mouth is a good idea, or whether mating with canines is morally permissible. It just takes the premise and runs with it. It's a quick read, and very entertaining. It's also one of the only current books I've read which reminds me of Richard Brautigan's writing style.
Doggy dreams.......2003-12-21
Arthur Bradford deftly walks the ledge of the mundane, tipping but not quite falling into a marshy terrain normally reserved for dreams. I love his style of mixed realism and the surreal, all delivered with a safe and unaffected deadpan tone. Many weeks later, little oddities from these stories are still skulking around my mind.
Comparisons are difficult, but Richard Brautigan's "In Watermelon Sugar" and Denis Johnson's "Jesus' Son" come to mind.
This is what you've been looking for..........2003-07-11
...if you're tired of the same old thing. This book is a simple, cool, straighforward breath of fresh air. I just read some of this reviews and it's clear that some of these folks just don't get it. If you are an academic type who likes long ornate descriptions and, well, pretentious attempts at emotional depth, then perhaps you won't like "Dogwlaker". This book is the antidote to all that, really. The stories have good plots! Strange and beautiful! It's an easy, fun read, in the best sense of the word. I've been reccomending "Dogwlaker" to my friends for months and some have said, "huh?" while others are delighted. Check it out and see what side of the fence you're on.
Bradford ý Dogwalker.......2003-05-28
Similar to a previous reviewer, I feel that I missed something. Throughout my time spent reading this collection (which admittedly was brief as this is a short collection), I found myself flipping to the blurbs on the back extolling the "heart" and "compassion" of the stories. And I've got to say, I really think a lot of people read an awful lot into this collection.
The stories themselves are pointless. There's no emotional payoff as far as I can see. And how many three-legged dogs do we have to read about? I realize there's probably a far larger population of three-legged dogs running (or limping) around the world than I would believe but by the time we hear about the last three-legged dog, the idea is tired and worn out.
Pointlessness is okay by me. I'd hate it if everything had an emotional punch. But what bothered me most about this collection (and the praise for it) was the quality of the actual writing itself. It was just not good. It wasn't awful but high school freshmen could be expected to string these sentences together. I saw very few signs of true writing talent.
Strange ideas are great but without solid writing skills they're worthless. Like many of the dogs he writes about, this collection just wobbles around on three-legs and never really struts as advertised. I'd advise all but the most desperate of readers to pass this by.

Sheri Tepper Wearing Her A. J. Orde Mystery Hat.......2003-02-17
Jason Lynx, the antique dealer/puzzle solver of this series, was trying to avoid talking to an obnoxious acquaintance when he walked past him in the park. It was not until he was trying to creep past the sleeping figure again that Bela, his dog, set up a howl that he realized that Fred was dead.
Jason also knew Fred's sister, who asked him to use his puzzle solving skills to help her find out what happened to her brother.
The deeper Jason dug, the more people appeared who had reason to kill Fred. The theme of this book is the importance of families, what they do to one another and for one another. Jason also gives some great tips on how to decorate a guest room.
Definitely well worth reading although the ending may not satisfy the mystery purist.

Book Description
**MIDDLE GRADER MYSTERIES GROW UP**
It was late last fall, and on the cover of the New York Post was a photograph of twelve year old Jeremy Siller standing in a city park with his bloodhound, Digger. They were surrounded by crimson stained paw prints and the headline read "Death of a Dogwalker".
Even by Big Apple standards, the crime is senseless, but this boy and his dog come to make sense of it, with the help of one potty-mouthed and loveable Detective Sergeant Joe Perillo.
Along the way they cross paths with a Columbian drug lord, some misguided and truly dangerous gang members, and a Wall Street financial writer who has sold his soul in order to save his life.
FAST PACED AND FUN READING. THINK OF IT AS COLUMBO FOR KIDS.

Attention all Drizzt freaks: our favorite dark-elf hero is not, repeat not, in Spine of the World. Neither is Bruenor nor Cattie-brie nor Regis et al. But don't think that means the latest installment in R.A. Salvatore's sweeping Drizzt-and-pals series isn't worth picking up: Spine sets things straight for the Forgotten Realms' newest, meanest drunk, the burly barbarian who single-handedly made warhammers cool again despite their measly 1d4+1 damage. Yep, Wulfgar is back, after ditching his buddies in The Silent Blade to become a bottle-swilling bouncer in the mangy port town of Luskan.
The towering tough guy hasn't strayed from his job at the Cutlass, hasn't sobered up, and hasn't forgotten his six years of horrific torture under the nasty balor Errtu.
But it's time for another book, so all that's about to change: kicked out of the Cutlass, robbed of Aegis-fang (yikes!), and framed for the attempted murder of his old friend Captain Deudermont (remember him from pirate-hunting on the Sea Sprite?), Wulfgar goes on the run with the rogue Morik, who's become a true friend despite the mission Jarlaxle and his dark-elf cohort gave him to watch the barbarian. Sure, Drizzt is missing (although he does make appearances in the form of ruminating journal entries), so Spine isn't a nonstop scimitar-fest. But R.A. still spins a good yarn--as always. With plenty of combat and intrigue, not to mention the ever-familiar monsters and spells, Spine of the World is surely the best show in town for the Forgotten Realms crowd. --Paul Hughes
Book Description
The Road to Redemption
Even the brutal streets of a treacherous city can't hide a tortured soul forever.
The barbarian Wulfgar sets upon a dangerous path toward redemption when and old friend finds him in the city of Luskan. Wulfgar's journey twists up the windswept peaks of the Spine of the World. He will persevere, for at the end lies his most prized possession -- the life he thought he'd lost forever.
Contains 16 pages of roleplaying game rules base on The Spine of the World.

Mediocre.......2007-05-11
This is the tale of Wulfgar coming to terms with his inner demons after his six-year stint under the tortuous Erttu. Drizzt and Co. are not in this book even briefly. The main storyline of the Crystal Shard and Jarlaxle is set aside for this story, so you don't get much as far as overall progression here. Maybe Salvatore felt guilty about leaving Wulfgar out of so much of the Legacy series that he figured he needed a whole book of his own. Some parts of the book are great, but this one just doesn't have the magic of the earlier Drizzt books.
The story consists of two separate plot-lines that briefly come together near the end of the book. Wulfgar and Morik (who develops nicely here) are framed, get beat, leave Luskan, fight, are framed, get beat, and so on. The other story was actually the more intriguing to me. It involves characters that we've never met before and their emotional wrangling. A hi-bred lord courts a lowly peasant (Meralda), who goes along with it for her family's sake but makes a big mistake in getting knocked up by another man. The two stories come together in an unpredictable way that results in a hugely surprising and satisfying ending.
Overall, this book is disappointing but can't be avoided if you're reading the whole series.
No Drizzt? Thank you, thank you, so much........2007-03-23
Look. I hate Drizzt. I'm sorry, but he's gotten to the point where he's undeniably invincible, which erases any possible conflict or drama; he's so one dimensional with his self-righteous, holier than thou attitude, and he's a hypocrite. In fact, I hate Catti-Brie and Regis too, and Bruenor isn't too great a character.
The fact is, Jarlaxle and Entreri carry the series. Drizzt hasn't developed; he's static. And up until this book, I was wondering whether or not reading anything else by RA would be worth it.
But Wulfgar really shines through here. The book is a dredge until the attempted murder of Drizzt's favorite captain, and the fleshing out of Morik. The torture scene of the prisoner's carnival was haunting and almost nauseating, and Wulfgar's first display of emotion there ignites the novel. Robillard was developed a bit more, always a plus, and the time Wulfgar and Morik spend on the road is some good character interaction, as well as providing some heroes that aren't akin to a PTA meeting like Drizzt and his friends. Wulfgar is made out to be much more interesting than before, and now that he (or anybody) doesn't have some magical weapon that can basically do ANYTHING AT ALL he seems more real and vulnerable, adding much needed tension to a Drizzt novel.
The two problems I have begin with the subplot. I think I'm not alone in skipping past the contrived chapters of filler that lead up to the meaningful act of Wulfgar getting a child. I wish this was done without the pointless scenes which you can easily forego.
And my 2nd problem. Salvatore, stop overusing words. I counted, well, countless times in which you used:
Incredulously
Inner Turmoil
Emotional Turmoil
Cuckolded
Incredulously
While RA is a pretty good writer, I think he could really improve if he varied his sentance structure and used some god-darn synonyms or something.
All in all, a good book. Wulfgar comes into his own as a better character than Lawful Stupid Drizzt, and that alone is worth it.
Good Idea, Poor Execution.......2006-08-21
Following the very good Silent Blade, Salvatore tries his hand at a book that is almost wholly character driven. While in Silent Blade the character driven parts were by far the best in The Spine of the World the character driven plot is unable to hold the reader's interest for the entire length of the work.
To be honest, the book just plain drags. Even the moments of tension, such as the assassination attempt on Captain Duedermont and the intrigue leading up to it doesn't have the excitement, tension and worry that it should.
One problem the book has is that it alternates between two storylines, one in which Wulfgar and his friend Morik the Rogue descend further and further in station and depravity and the other about an unknown minor lord and two peasants in a love triangle. Though the plot threads do intersect, as we know they must, it simply takes too long. Perhaps it would have been a better idea to start the book showing the first crux of the intersection, Wulfgar's imprisonment for the alleged offense and then return to the past to show both plotlines develop.
Other than intersecting with the Wulfgar plot the peasant/Lord plotline is just a mediocre look at love and political conniving in a feudal setting. It's not bad by any means, but I don't think Salvatore has yet gained the ability to write that sort of plot well.
The Wulfgar plot isn't much better. Tormented by the memories of Erttu Wulfgar destroys everything he has and is forced to leave Luskan, thrown out of his job and then framed for attempted murder. Hitting rock-bottom he becomes a highwayman. Despite being a highwayman with a conscience of sorts I found it hard to believe Wulfgar would ever drop that far. I think he'd be much more likely to commit suicide by taking on ever increasing numbers of monsters before robbing innocents.
Wulfgar's sidekick, Morik the Rogue was merely a pale shadow of Jarlaxle and Artemis Entreri combined into a wise-cracking rogue.
Once the threads do intersect we have an improbable, but sweet, redemption of Wulfgar. Emotionally satisfying but it doesn't really hold up to an intellectual inspection.
I appreciate Salvatore departing from the fight-fight-fight formula, and hope he was able to learn from his mistakes here to become even better at character driven works.
From Depths of Despair to Persoanl Salvation.......2006-08-15
No Drizzt you say? He's not needed! This story is about Wulfgar, the Conan-like barbarian who often accompaniies Drizzt, Cattie-Brie and Bruenor Battlehammer on their quests. This story takes you into the personal turmoil of someone who is suffering psychological damage after having been imprisoned in a prison camp for 6 long years. As I read this account about the youth Wulfgar, Salvatore evoked memories of hearing horrendous accounts about US Soldiers who were P.O.W.'s in Vietnam and the severe torture they endured. All that the Demon Errtu did to Wulfgar was nothing to compare how Wulfgar tore his very soul away from himself and hid inside a bottle.
You have Wulfgar settling in the sea port of Luskan which is run by ruthless cutthroats who'll sell their own mother for a silver piece. You discover how a lone man who although possessed of sheer brute strength and agility can topple with prejuidice under cruel weight of his own wretchedness.
Salvatore even seperates our beloved Wulfgar from his precious Aegis-Fang warhammer! And though Wulfgar is upset about it, he goes on to show that he doesn't need it to take down giants and other bad guys. Wulfgar is skilled in fighting and when he becomes victorious over his own soul, the path to forgiveness is long and hard but rewarding for him.
Many of us have seen real life examples of Wulfgar and maybe this is what caused me to love this story so much. I had grown up watching many men sink themselves into a bottle, one after another, and while many went the way of death, some came to grips with their own inner demons and conquored them as Wulfgar has learned to do. It's the hope you'll cultivate for Wulfgar as you read this intriguing story that really compels you to read just another page before you put the book down.
Morik the Rogue is a fun character to learn about and his interaction with Wulfgar is crucial to the story's element. It's the torture that Morik goes thru at the Carnival that is the first tugging of Wulfgar's conscience brining him back to life.
Delly Curtis, Arumm, Josi Puddles, Nee Aticktick, Meralda, Count Feri, Temingast and the others all make for great supporting cast in this story. If you can get this book and read it. You'll love the ending.
Good if you just read Wulfgars side.......2006-03-10
I would've given it 5 stars if not for half of the chapters within which profoundly dissapoints. This book has no Drizzt Do'orden or his other companions, besides Wulfgar, no Artemis Entretri or cunning Jarlaxle, instead, it covers the tedious story of a peasant girl and her love, in the castle Auckney, wisped closely along the spine of the world, where, Wulfgar and his companion Morik happen to be traveling after they were banned within Luskans city limits for the accused assassination of Captain Deudermont, in which Deudermont excused them himself. Honestly, the peasant girl story was to boring for me to read through, the dialogue was like sophisticated, almost like reading through romeo and juliet kinda [stuff], it didn't even seem related to anything at all, I purposely skipped every chapter so I could just catch up with Wulfgars story and his companion Morik.
Book Description
Join the world's most famous drow elf in the penultimate chapter of the Legend of Drizzt series!
Spending time in the unimaginable torture chambers of the Abyss for even a day would be enough to break even the heartiest soul, and the barbarian Wulfgar was there for years. When he returns, his friends find him a changed man, and not changed for the better. But Wulfgar's road to redemption is one he must travel on his own, even if it leads to the bottle.
Customer Reviews:
Very good introduction.......2005-05-28
Bytwerk has written a very accessible book about the use of propaganda by the two twentieth century dictatorships in Germany - the nazis and the communists. It's well-organized with excellent endnotes and a lengthy bibliography. While I think the subject deserves two in-depth booklength studies on each individual era instead of this comparative approach, "Bending Spines" is a good introduction. At times however, the comparative structure simply breaks down, for example in the chapter comparing the role of satire journals under Hitler and in the GDR. Bytwerk's hunt for anti-semitic "humor" in East German sources to compare to the Nazi's overwhelming hatred made me cringe. Bytwerk provides a wonderful website as a supplement to this book. It is an archive of translations of both Nazi and communist propaganda and is superb.
A sober, meticulous dissection of the lessons of history.......2004-12-12
Award-winning author an Professor of Communication Randall Bytwerk presents Bending Spines: The Propagandas Of Nazi Germany And The German Democratic Republic, a scholarly close study that strives to answer a larger question: why do totalitarian propagandas such as those created in Nazi Germany and the former German Democratic Republic succeed so well in the short term, yet fail in the long term? Examining in-depth the litany of persuasive techniques used by the regimes, and ultimately concluding that the government expected more of propaganda than it was able to deliver, Bending Spines leaves no word unturned in its search to comprehend what truth moves and manipulates human hearts and minds. A sober, meticulous dissection of the lessons of history.

OOOOOOOO! Spooky.......1999-10-10
Yes, I typed in another review for "World's Weirdest 'True' Ghost Stories". What happened was, I got these two books in a pack. They also came with a spooky casette, but I've long since lost that. Anyways, it's close to Halloween, and I dug these two books out from the closet. In this book, I would deffinetly read, "The Black Dog of Hanging Hills". It gets you're mind working!
