Reseña del libro "DimWitts II: World War Stupid (The DimWitts Saga) (en Inglés)"
The old alliances are gone. Eighteen months after humanity survived the global catastrophe known as the Big Stupid, the world reels in the rippling aftermath of rampant stupidity. Seizing on the total collapse of NORAD, Russian dictator Ivan Volkov launches a devastating surprise invasion of Canada. But the military campaign is only a distraction to conceal a far more serious threat. Behind the scenes, an ageless arms dealer exploits the chaos on both sides of the conflict. He intrudes on the natural order of human souls, amplifying the mass battlefield casualties to fuel his divine ascension. Simultaneously, the sinister, bloodless doctor remains buried deep in a forgotten Canadian sanitarium, readying his newly repaired compounder to once more embrace the beauty of zero. The survival of existence now rests on the unqualified shoulders of humanity's favourite DimWitts, forced to fight a multi-front battle across reality. US Vice President David Enders crosses the spectrum to confront the ascending weapons merchant, guided by a witch-eyed young mystic, and armed only with his razor-sharp wit. Meanwhile, on the physical battlefield, Josephine du Maurier, the Canadian Prime Minister, faces the demise of her nation. In a desperate bid to repel the Russian invaders, she teams up with a beloved children’s television host to unleash the secret arsenal long hidden beneath a Winnipeg shopping mall. As the war escalates, King George VII teams up with the President of Ukraine, Oleksandr Kovalenko, to execute a rogue Kremlin assassination plot, while Haver, the former American colonel, returns to the scene of his disgrace in search of answers. Led by the mysterious intervention of a cross-spectrum cat, these chaotic factions weave together for a final showdown with the ageless merchant on the precipice of absolute divinity, and the doctor’s unholy compounder thrumming beneath the mountain. Welcome to World War Stupid!
