When a sumo crime boss named Oberon Tubbs begins buying up a Jamaican powder called Z8, Agent 00X is assigned to uncover the reason why. Can he keep his giant sized manhood in check long enough to do it?
In A Town Called Suckhole, David Barbee satirized redneck culture. This time, James Bond is his target.
Oberon's nefarious scheme is something out of a James Bond movie if James Bond movies featured cyberpunky stuff and zombies. Agent 00X is like James Bond times ten, especially when it comes to the ladies, with the added bonus of having one of the word's greatest mustaches.
Just as in A Town Called Suckhole, the hilarious bits come at you straight out of the gate. Dr. Strangelove robots? Kung fu Rastas? Petite LaVulva? Psyche Delia? Here's one of my favorite quotes from the book:
00X had to follow, but he could only choose one—the
Z8 powder or the mystery woman.
He chose the one he could have sex with.
Tubb's scheme was both an homage to every Bond villain's scheme and a topper to all of them. Thunderpussy should appeal to fans of James Bond, Archer, Austin Powers, and people who are generally predisposed toward reading crazy hilarious books.

In the first few pages Thunderpussy will smack you with hilarious dialogue, plenty of anomaly, and an instantly likable protagonist. As it goes on you realize how solidly written it is. Relevant commentary on corruption and greed and the horrible places it may lead us in the near future sits right beside all of the unusual characters and humor. A futuristic espionage tale with loads of weird thrown in to great effect. Recommended.

David Barbee showed us what he’s got with A TOWN CALLED SUCKHOLE, but his next book, THUNDERPUSSY, confirms it – Barbee is one of the best authors of weird fiction out there right now.
THUNDERPUSSY is a consistently funny, perfectly over-the-top Bizarro update of the super spy adventure. Declan Magpie Bruce, Agent 00X, is everything you’d want in a spy. He’s hypersexual, majestically mustachioed, and armed to the teeth with fun spy gear like a suitbot that transforms his clothing to whatever environment or situation he’s in. Ever wonder how James Bond always shows up in nice new threads all the time, despite never carting luggage around with him? Had to be a suitbot.
That’s one example of dozens of great, weird ideas that pepper the pages of THUNDERPUSSY. While James Bond continues to be re-imagined as Jason Bourne, Barbee goes the other direction and puts a shitload of fun back into the spy genre.

I had recently read David Barbees A Town Called Suckhole. I found that Barbees writing is imaginative, entertaining, and funny. So of course, I was excited about reading his newest book Thunderpussy. Straight off the bat this book doesn’t disappoint, it is funny and highly entertaining. This book features Declan Bruce, Agent 00x. He’s a spy for ZE State and he’s kind of like James Bond only taller, and has an awesome mustache.
After many of the other agents have met untimely fates 00X is sent in to figure out what is going on. Oberon Tubbs, CEO of Tubbstech, is buying a shipment of Z8 Powder from a Jamaican Drug lord. It’s up to Declan Bruce to find out why. The only real clue that he has is the word Thunderpussy. It’s a wild ride to Tubbs hideout on the moon as Bruce fights and screws his way to solving the mystery.
One of the things that I liked so much about Suckhole was the crazy and interesting characters, and Barbee has continued that trend with his latest book. He is a master at populating his books with individuals that are equal parts bizarre and fascinating, amusing and intriguing. From kung-fu Rastafarians to an evil henchman with a 10 foot pecker, Thunderpussy is littered with awesome characters. And seeing as how 00X is bad-ass spy, it would be awesome to see more of his adventures. He could be to Barbee as 007 were to Ian Fleming, only way more insane. And with an awesome mustache.
Barbee writes some top notch Bizarro. He is definitely someone to keep an eye out for. I will be waiting anxiously for whatever he puts out next. I’m sure it will be just as great as this book was.

David Barbee has written a hilarious James Bond-style Bizarro novel. It’s kind of like Austin Powers without all the stupid dated jokes. It’s what Austin Powers should have been if Mike Myers didn’t suck so bad at his job.
Thunderpu$$y has everything you could want out of a bizarre novel. There are weird characters, crazy ideas, sexy ladies, kung-fu ninjas, and a totally awesome mustache. It is also quite possibly the best end-of-the-world, secret agent novel ever written. The book follows Declan Bruce, Agent 00X, as he tries to stop a gigantic psychopath sumo wrestler, Oberon Tubbs, from taking over the world. Tubbs is crazy rich, and also just crazy. But Agent 00X is the world’s greatest spy, so this should be a piece of cake for him. It SHOULD be, but it is not. It will now take everything Declan has to save the world…if he could just stop rogering long enough to get to it.
This book is hilarious, much like everything else David Barbee has written. Check it out, seriously, because if you don’t the velociraptor women will totally eat your face off your head.
