The Gluttons: Extreme Horror
"A surprising number of people took selfies with the mushroom clouds."
TRIGGER ARMAGEDDON - CANNIBALISM - MUTILATION - INFANTICIDE
World War III started and ended a lot faster than almost anyone could have predicted... anyone except Colm Gardner's uncle, who had secretly built a fallout shelter in the back garden of his little terraced house in Eastleigh. But Colm's uncle had died a few months before the nukes fell, and had left the house with its well-stocked Doomsday vault to his nephew, along with a set of day-by-day instructions for survival, instructions called THE SHOPPING LIST.
After managing to get into the shelter just before nuclear war destroyed the world, Colm has spent years locked in isolation, trying not to go insane. But what kind of world will he emerge into... and will it be ready for what he has become?

This is the perfect addition to the franchise. So much... everything, you have gross, yuck, and absolute disgust. What more could you ask for?
Excellent writing and overall great story, looking forward to the next.

Stomach churning
I've read the first and second book in this series,.and all I can say i s sickening. Everything is so well described you can actually feel each item yourself. Mouth watering that awful watery taste before you vomit. Nausea overpowering you with each described item. A fantastic read with a brilliant storyline and characters. Well written with great descriptions throughout. Can't wait to read the next in the series to see what's next. Please don't read if your easily offended or squeamish. Oh and for the first book Amazon doesn't sell so you have to buy on different site. The first is called The Lusty. I most definitely recommend. Perfect for that quick fix of extreme horror.

The Gluttons is the second installment of the SeVIIn Sick Sins. The second sin follows in the wake of The Lusty, and the platform on the dark web that people share their depraved videos. Lily is the main character we follow through the story, and this is something that was a switch I disliked a bit. The mystery of The Lusty felt like it was lacking in The Gluttons.
Nonetheless, The Gluttons is also a very disgusting, and visceral installment. Although it happens to be my least favorite of the lot so far it still is great. This time there are four contestants. Lily, Bjorn, Leland, and a mysterious character. Lily is a competitive eater, as is Bjorn, but poor Bjorn has been exploited into the role by his mother due to his Prader-Willi syndrome and low IQ. Leland is a chef that specializes in videos cooking up radical dishes that are expensive, and absolutely ludicrous meals no one can afford. The last gentleman is a mystery until later.
The rules are the same. Three rounds, don’t come in last or you won’t move to the next round, and the last person standing gets to live. The contestants are put through a series of nasty feats that they must endure. Some very very disgusting, and disturbing.
I have to give The Gluttons by Kevin Sweeney four crap sandwiches out of five blood rusted secateurs. My main dislike of this entry I already explained. The change in writing style, and following one character. This took away a lot of mystery. Nevertheless, it is still an engrossing read, and will gross you out!

I cringed and gagged my way through the entire story. Sweeny is a master of describing vulgar acts.

From lust to gluttony, Sweeney is showing us just how sick The Disciples can be. Lily was born with a gift, but into a terrible family which clearly pushed her towards using that gift in such a way that it basically ruined her life. The Disciples offered her an opportunity to use that life ruining gift, to save her. Two down, on to Sloth...

I was about to die when I read the second round

I expected much more, coming from The Lusty. The second round was nasty, but overall, not really something to write home about.
