The latest title by Mark Yoshimoto-Nemcoff is The Doomsday Club:
Scott Lorlon is in a wicked funk. He can’t eat, can’t sleep, won’t go to his classes and has made the awful mistake of cutting his own hair. His fall through the fragile floor of despair comes after his longtime girlfriend has kicked him to the curb without so much as a warning. This darkly comic thriller takes root as Scott’s roommate, Hale, and two other buddies try to cheer him up. But for them, it’s a loaded bong where all their trouble begins. Busted by a vicious resident assistant, heated words are exchanged and when the R.A. attacks them, Scott unintentionally kills him. The boys panic and hatch a crazy scheme to get rid of the body — a plan ending with a deadly fireball that only succeeds in getting them deeper over their heads in crisis.

Pretty cool story, burned through it quite fast, couldn’t turn it off.

Hey, dude your book is off the charts amazingly cool! Yours is the first series I have listened to through Podiobooks, and you have set the bar very high. I have a podcast, and was hoping to play a trailer for you book on it. Do you have a trailer I can use? Please email me.

Fantastic story! Very quick listen and maintained my interest through the end. The tale is told in the second person point of view and at parts of the narration, I felt like the burnt out protagonist.

I really liked this book- finished it in less than 24 hrs. Very suspenseful and descriptive.

I didn’t like this one at all. The humor missed its mark, the narration was lackluster, and truth be told, the synopsis sounded more interesting than the actual thing. I got up to the fifth chapter and lost interest completely.

This book was Excellent. This is probably one of the best books out there. It really capture the feeling of being in the college dorms right down to the asshole RA and the weed. I was shocked at how every description of college life hit the mark. It was a great story as well, this book should really be published. it should be a modern classic like catcher in the rye

What a stunningly great book! I love dark humor like this, everything going slowly down the drain.
The story is written very well, with a lot of very great humor and of course Mark Y. Nemcoff knows how to read his books. Love it!

I loved this book. The plot was unbelievable, characters quirky, pace almost frenetic and setting very familiar. Great combination. Mark read the book like a pro.

This is a wicked funny book…
Really dark but unbelievably hilarious laugh out loud material…Not something I do very often with a Podiobook…
Nemcoff screwed with my mind on the “Madman” creepiness..
But this is one great satire and a bonafide fan is born.

I also wanted to add that the narration and writing are exceptional.
The 5 stars lacking here is someones issue with something else..
the language..or the casual drug use maybe?

Mark has a very dark sense of humour and it combines brilliantly with the college campus sense of humour and apathy. I loved the decline from worrying about break ups and getting snapped for pot to murder and seriously messed up mind games. One of my favourites
