Francesca Gould

Formats & Editions

HORNY LIZARDS AND HEADLESS CHICKENS is a vile and disgusting compendium of the world s most unpleasant creatures, diseases, hideous tortures and every other type of horrifying, nauseating fact imaginable. Questions posed in the book address revolting matters such as:

* Do flies really puke on your food?

* Which worm can eat its way through the human eye?

* And how long does a head remain conscious after being guillotined?

In HORNY LIZARDS AND HEADLESS CHICKENS, readers can explore a huge range of horrible subjects, which most books have the good sense to avoid, including Aztec sacrifices, bizarre medical treatments, body snatchers, cannibalism, and eye-wateringly unpleasant execution methods. You are guaranteed a brilliantly sickening read.
