If your sense of humour is pitch black and you can understand Scots dialect then check out Irvine Welsh's collection of work. Particularly the main 'Trainspotting' stuff: Trainspotting, Porno and Skagboys. I've yet to read the Juice Terry books, but I can only imagine how horrific that'll all turn out to be. Not got around to reading Filth either, but seen the film. Avoid 'The Blade Artist' though.

Tim Dorseys books are pretty funny. Theyre about a serial killer and his druggie friend having crazy adventures around Florida.

Holy smokes, I forgot all about Serge and his adventures. Hammerhead Motel and all that, right? I'll have to hunt those books down again, I remember them being pretty fun.


Yeah, avoid anything written by Grant or Naylor if it was done solo. I can't remember which is which but they perfectly balanced each other out. One would always try and go extra goofy and conceptual like Adams and the other was an utter misery who would try and locks his stories into a depressing quagmire.

If it was a memoir it'd have juicy home truths, like he was a deeply closeted homosexual!

I think that book is the only one I'll ever listen to in audiobook format.

If you like knob jokes then you'll probably enjoy David Wong's new book, "What the Hell Did I Just Read?"
