What people are saying about SILICONE GOD:
It's a riot. I mean, how could it not be with lines like, "This isn't literature. It's leftovers." It mocks the things it loves and loves the things it mocks—the effect is fantastic fun. -Derek McCormack
…A post-porn masterpiece! -Annie Sprinkle
…Compelling, enrapturing, and gorgeous. -Jessica Stoya
…Singularity of Silicone God births horny bish whorror. #Bookgasm -Jack Skelley
As unmoored from convention as it is sizzlingly hot. -Alison Rumfitt
Victoria Brooks has served up a literary mille-feuille, with deliciously wicked cream spread between sickly sweet layers. Dark, disturbing, and deeply sensual all at once, you'll devour every page. -Samantha Allen
…at once sensual, ridiculous, epiphanous and transformative… As any great fuck should be. A truly exciting debut! -Brad Beau Cohen
A slick, hot, pleasure-filled journey about the possibilities of transformation and the healing the future could hold. -Saskia Vogel
Raunchy, rebellious, startlingly imaginative, playful but deadly serious, Brooks has created a must-read 'book-gasm' of queer pleasure and illicit redemption. -Sarah Law
All the makings of a queer cult classic. Joyfully perverse and perverted. -Laura Kaye
Reading like a collaboration between Angela Carter and Kathy Acker, this is the kind of pornosophical book we need more of in the world. -Jonathan Kemp
Strap On! Slide In! Bliss Out! Victoria Brooks' Silicone God fills that yearning hole left by your earliest and most affecting weird-lit-porno crushes... sultry company for heavily-thumbed works by Charlie Jane Anders, Dennis Cooper, and Alex Trocchi. -Jamie Sutcliffe
