Summary
Successful author Todd Klein and his wife Rosita live a quiet small town life. Todd's latest novel is selling well and despite recent budget cuts, Rosita relishes her job at the local library. After years of marriage, they're still in love, the mortgage to their suburban home is paid off, and their future is bright. Until, that is, Todd makes an appointment at the Department of Motor Vehicles to renew his license.
Jorge Guiterrez, Rosita's younger brother, hasn't been so lucky. A few months earlier, his bad temper finally caught up with him. After arguing with a supervisor, Jorge quit his cushy job and hasn't been able to find a new one. The bills are piling up and his wife is starting to pressure him. Until, one day, he is approached by a pair of mysterious strangers with an even more mysterious job offer...at the DMV.
Zal Tombasian, a young programmer at Data Initiatives, has a pretty boring existence. As his friend and co-worker Bernard tells him, "Your social life consists of sitting at home eating junk food and playing online games." Zal doesn't even bother to put up an argument. He's never been much for adventure. Until his company is hired to work on their largest account yet...by the DMV.
With his latest novel, Bentley Little's savage satire is on full display as he takes on everyone's worst nightmare, the DMV.
Stephen King says: "When it comes to horror, nobody does what Bentley Little does.... Scary, funny, weird, satiric, surreal."
"Longtime master of horror fiction Little is back. Readers will think twice about renewing their licenses after reading DMV. Fans of Little’s work will enjoy his latest offering." (Booklist)
"This is Bentley Little at his mind-blowing best." (Well Worth A Read)

Mediocre
I’m quite a fan of Bentley Little and have read a lot of his books. He always starts off well and gets you itching to read the next chapter but often by the end, things have gone to being totally weird and, in some cases, really childish and like a comic book. It’s as if he has brilliant ideas for stories then can’t see them through to the end by being anywhere near believable! So many of his books I’ve found like this. This one is just ok .. mediocre I’d probably say. The narration was great though.

Really poor
I’ve read quite a few of his books and enjoyed them, this one however is really weak. It’s slow and ponderous, I like crazy imaginative stories but this clutches at straws to make some kind of sense, then all the horrific and weird encounters by the characters are just taken calmly in their stride whereas anyone encountering such horror would run screaming and be left in a catatonic state. I persevered but it was a struggle, don’t waste your credit on this one
