Industry Reviews
"...[A]n utterly charming novel that begs to go along on vacation (and won't take up too much space). Denton is an Austin writer with a wonderful sense of character and great comic timing. In 'Lunatics', he uses these to make a bodacious bombshell of a book that you can still respect in the morning....'Lunatics' is like that one perfect unforgettable song that summons up a summer: breezy, sunstruck, joyous. It's a book that leaves you humming."
Washington Post Book World - Elizabeth Hand (07/14/1996)

"'Lunatics' is a fun book, full of interesting, flawed, recognizable people, written with verve and wit, and never, never taking itself too seriously."
New York Review of Science Fiction - Gary Reger (08/19/1996)

"Light, eccentric, thoughtful, and endearing: Planet Denton's a weird place but well worth a visit."
Harris
