Review:
"Sure you would if you were addicted to heroin and this part of you body contained the only vein left, or opium or booze or cigarettes, in their fashion, and the means of getting them into you. So in another addiction story Brian Moreland says you wake up at 4 in the morning reach for that one last cigarette and find it gone. In a sweaty panic you discover a monster beside your bed and quite a monster it is. It smiles at you and opens its mouth wide. Any sane being would run away, but this might be your last chance for a great smoke, so hop in. Start with page one. This is a serious disturbing story about those little things meant to give us a breather from reality until they take us over."
