This comic horror novel with perhaps the most un-PC title ever (but, don’t let it scare you away from reading it), is genuinely hilarious! Written by James H. Lucas, he is to be commended on not holding back any punches—er—punchlines. It is set in Plimpton, which has “the largest prostitute population per capita in the world, hence Plimpton’s nickname: Pimptown.”
This is not a book about social reform; it’s a parody with the most extreme of stereotypes, think of pimps as portrayed in bad 70’s TV and movies. Be warned, gentle reader, there is also some pimp and prostitute appropriate language. Yes, swear words. It’s not a family comedy, but supreme slapstick on the level of early Jim Carrey films. If physical comedy could be conveyed in words, this is it.
In short, a group of evil vampires decide to take over Pimptown, moving into the area's best hotel with their human servant. They then proceed to go on a rampage, doing what vampires do (not sparkle or fall in love with high school girls, but kill lots of people in order to drink their blood). It’s a delight. Eventually, this leads to the pimps defending their territory and an epic battle between ‘bad’ and ‘badder.’
Fun, fun, fun!
