But there are a few notable differences. Visa owns everything. Deer are the most common domesticated animal. And misinterpretations of preapocalyptic history run amuck (e.g., Sarah Palin established the theory of natural selection). But what hasn't changed is the nature of good and evil. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ci\u003eThe Good and the Ghastly \u003c\/i\u003ecenters on two people linked through violence. Mobster Junior Alvarez has risen from street thug to criminal overlord. He will go to incredible lengths to get what he wants--and he desires to live however he pleases, without compromise. The intensity of his quest is matched only by that of the mother of one of Alvarez's first victims. She has gone vigilante and is hunting down mobsters. The two are prepared to go to the ends of the earth to manifest their wills--one good, one ghastly, both ruthless. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eA wild satire of our own society, \u003ci\u003eThe Good and the Ghastly \u003c\/i\u003eis a visceral novel informed by Boice's unnerving sense of reality and pathology. It is also an honest, old-fashioned good-versus-evil story--with a twist of modern-day madness.\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNumber of Pages:\u003c\/strong\u003e 288\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDimensions:\u003c\/strong\u003e 0.9 x 8.9 x 5.9 IN\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePublication Date:\u003c\/strong\u003e June 14, 2014\u003c\/div\u003e\n            ","brand":"BooksCloud","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":48419681861881,"sku":"9781416575450","price":18.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0789\/2782\/3097\/files\/tE2vI0VW2Z9781416575450.webp?v=1779185655","url":"https:\/\/bookscloud.io\/products\/the-good-and-the-ghastly-paperback","provider":"BooksCloud Book Dropshipping","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
