Doomed Paperback – 2 Oct 2013
Description
Review "It's not for the faint-stomached. It's also rather brilliant… A grand, funny, troubling and rewarding read… Maddie is my new post-alive heroine." (Euan Ferguson Observer)"Funny, bloody and always original. But then we should expect nothing less from the creator of Fight Club." (The Sun)"Instantly engaging (and excellently gory)… it makes Tyler Durden's psychological problems look positively pedestrian." (Shortlist)"A fantastic exploration of modern fame, unfolding in typically opaque sci-fi style as we follow child-of-the-stars Madison after she overdoses on Oscar night and is driven to hell in a limo." (Grazia)"Hellishly good reading... Filled with Palahniuk's sublimely detailed grossness and blacker-than-black giggles." (Bizarre) About the Author Chuck Palahniuk is the bestselling author of fifteen fictional works, including Fight Club, Invisible Monsters, Survivor, Choke, Lullaby, Diary, Haunted, Rant, Pygmy, Tell-All, Damned, Doomed, Beautiful You, and most recently Make Something Up. He lives in the Pacific Northwest.

Doesn't live up to promise.
Doesn't live up to the promise of the first bok. It more-or-less completes the story but then again the tale is left open for another.

Funny but lacked something
Madison is back, with a twisted and humorous vengeance. The story unravels back to earth and the twisted humour had me smirking many times on the train and nodding in sarcastic agreement with Chuck. However, just like the prequel, it gets to a point where it leaves you hanging, again. Shame. Unless Madison and her friends return to delight her gentle tweeters.

Doomed, the follow up up to Damned!
Not a bad book but not my favourite Chuck book either and it appears that it has been left open for a possible third follow up to the on going saga! It is advisable to read Damned before Doomed so that you can follow the plot easier.

Loving it!
It's brilliantly blackly funny ! Only Palahniuk could think up stuff like this. I haven't finished it yet, but have enjoyed every chapter so far, and it rattles along. Wish I had thought of writing something like it.
