"Hello Devilfish! is a Manglish-spiced, first-person (or first-fish) account of a giant blue Japanese movie monster (kaiju) stingray's attack on contemporary Tokyo and his tragic morph into human form. HD is soon pursued by Squidra, a love-struck Kaiju giant squid. She demands love. He refuses. In an epic waterfront battle, she traps HD in a human-growth hormone bath that changes him into a puny human--a reverse metamorphosis--monster to man. HD refuses to accept his humanity, and acts like his former giant stingray self while trying to find food, shelter, romance--and avoiding the destructive rampage of his stalker squid love interest. Epic waterfront battles! Shock-pop! Destructive rampages! And under it all, a stinging critique of contemporary culture and mainstream literature."--Publisher's website.
