[I.D. · Rating 3 out of 5]

TNT is forced into action to stop an Arabic sheik from changing the world’s weather with a machine called The Devil’s Claw.
Super stud hero TNT battles 8 sadistic circus dwarves, a gang of scientists named after the peanuts gang who love Pink Floyd, and a harem of women on the way to saving the world and his girl Clare.
Somehow this is the least insane of the series so far with only dwarf fisting, tornado shredded soldiers, and a lesbian harem keeper as the most off the wall elements. It’s still the weirdness of TNT and his superhuman abilities but after the bonkos first three books, this is almost “normal.” Just like a deranged Bond story. Still offbeat and weird but not cranked up to 11.

TNT is one of the most imaginative series i've ever read. It features a gold-plated monopoly game, played on two sides of the globe simultaneously for billions of dollars, a sadistic harem-keeper with a collection of pubic hair of different colors that she wears depending on her mood, a platoon of tiny assassins styled after snow white's seven dwarfs, a rich sheik who wants to use weather control weapons to change the west into a desert and the middle-east into a paradise, and a bunch of child geniuses who have named themselves after characters from charles schulz's peanuts.
