About this audiobook
From the wicked imagination of award-winning writer Warren Ellis comes DEAD PIG COLLECTOR, a love story with a classic Ellis twist. So while it might be a love story, it's also about killing people and disposing of their bodies in the most efficient manner possible.
DEAD PIG COLLECTOR introduces readers to Mister Sun, a very proficient businessman whose trade is the murder and spotless removal of human beings. Like any businessman, he knows each transaction is only as good as his client - and today's client, in Los Angeles, has turned out to be so dangerously stupid that Mister Sun's work and life are now in jeopardy...

Reviews for Dead Pig Collector
79 ratings5 reviews
- Rating: 5 out of 5 stars5/5very enjoyable story- quick, clever, & a little bit heartbreaking
- Rating: 3 out of 5 stars3/5Narrated well but it's a short story that would be a great book with more scenes and development.
- Rating: 5 out of 5 stars5/5Gotta say, there isn't a hell of a lot Ellis writes that I don't like. I loved this. It's everything you'd expect from Ellis: gross, irreverent, and well-written.
It also introduces a neat little love story, something I would never have expected from the author.
Loved it. And, being a Canadian, I appreciate what he stated about Canadians in the story. He ain't wrong. We're monsters. - Rating: 4 out of 5 stars4/5Downbeat but enjoyable story of a hitman/body disposal expert whose current job in LA turns out to be a bit unusual. Gruesome, fairly unbelievable, and a bit inevitable, perhaps, but well written. Will Wheaton's audiobook narration is excellent.
- Rating: 3 out of 5 stars3/5A quickly amusing dark tale by Fearsome Uncle Warren, Dead Pig Collector is tightly written and even whimsical. Ellis manages to fit exactly the right amount of detail in these 29 pages.
