Reviews

"[An] ultraviolent, dystopian debut novel from Ryan Gattis, the spawn of Quentin Tarantino and Robert Cormier." --Publishers Weekly "A modern, violent epic of teenage kicks in the school of hard knocks. Kung Fu High School is a bloodied white-knuckle ride that never forgets the consequences of its actions." --The List "Gattis creates a nightmarish, confrontational, and fascinating world . . . that forces readers to consider societal fears about youth and violence." --Booklist
