As anyone who has talked me me even briefly over the last month knows, I loved reading King Dork. It's a young adult novel that's one-half rant against Catcher In the Rye, one-half spoof of The Da Vinci Code, and one-half Encyclopedia Brown in the 21st Century. Yeah, I know that adds up to more than one, but that's how good it is. It's also very knowing about rock trivia and absolutely spot-on about what it feels like to be an "uncool" teen.
Read this interview with Frank Portman and you'll want to read King Dork. Any regular reader of Stereophilia will love it.
