Very Mercenary is due out in April. Here's what people are saying: 1.11.09

Craig Davidson (author of The Fighter): "Anarchy as art, rampaging hitmen, and some serious Daddy Issues fuel Rayo Casablanca's violent, savvy, and propulsive VERY MERCENARY. Think Andy Warhol meets The Monkey Wrench Gang and you're getting the picture. Casablanca's writing cuts hard, fast, and deep as a buzzsaw. Reader beware: you're going to bleed."

Allan Guthrie (author of Savage Night): "Mad as a bag of artistic squirrels. With guns.Very brilliant and very original."

Derek Nikitas (author of Pyres): "VERY MERCENARY is vintage noir and self-immolating hipsterism blended together with some wicked satire. It's as if indie rock and hardboiled crime went on a wild bender together. You have to get a load of the shenanigans. "
