Wolves are roaming the streets. Before long deformed and savaged bodies turn up in the woods. Runoff is dark, stylish, funny, visceral, and more than anything else: Unpredictable. Before the narrative reaches its powerful conclusion there will be force-fields, ghosts, werewolves, tesseracts, talking animals, vampires, mummies, a dissertation on the fourth dimension, government conspiracies, comic strips, and, naturally, a municipal election."
