FantasticLand: A Novel

Product Information

This book is written as a series of interviews with the survivors from a massacre at an amusement park. The book even deals with this a bit in the final chapters where they're looking back at the events in the park. That said, they actually considered remaking it into an experience like place where the situation was recreated only to realize what a stupendiously stupid idea it was. This book will completely suck you in and make you believe in FantasticLand and the tragic events that unfolded there. A video was released of the National Guard entering the park by one of the soldiers for money and was dishonorably discharged.

It emerges that, having banded into tribes, the remaining survivors have been waging an intense, bloody battle with each other. I’m not sure what’s going on in Florida but nothing surprises me now with the stories that come out of the state. When the National Guard finally came, he had been hiding in an office and didn't leave for two straight weeks.Told in interview form- it details the horrific events that happened at the amusement park after the area is devastated by a horrific storm.

This book is about as unputdownable as they come and I'm grateful for the long thanksgiving weekend that allowed me to run through this without having to stop for work or other inconveniences.

Shout-Out: As these are personal interviews of employees, most in college, they used pop culture references in relation to the events of the book.
