I find Carroll's quirky writing style to be easy for me to read and stay interested in even though I am not much of a fantasy reader. He has a lot of good throwaway lines and good characters. I liked this one so much that I bought his Top Dog and The Great Liars books and enjoyed them as well, particularly Liars (which is not fantasy).Tags : Dog Eat Dog [Jerry Jay Carroll, Joel Peter Johnson] on Amazon.com. *FREE* shipping on qualifying offers.

I must disagree with a recent reviewer which thought that this sequel was not as good as its predecessor. While I do agree that the ending seemed a little rushed, and while I certainly would have enjoyed greater philosophical dialogue amongst many of the lead characters, I found this book to be even more energetic and enjoyable. I felt that the characters' behaviours were more believable (and internally consistent) than in the first book, and I found the humor a little more intellectual. Overall, a very fine read.
If you have ever thought that you were sane in a world that labelled you insane, then you can relate to this book. A very nice addition to this story is a sort of "How to sabotage a presidential compagain for under 100 million dollars".
One of the few books that I have read in a long time that was actually well thought out. Not to mention a book that you can actually sympathize with the hero.
Although this book could be read without first reading Top Dog, the first in the two book series, it's more fun if you've read the first one before this. I think this is a better story, more exciting, than the first book was, but if you've read about Bogie being a dog it all makes more sense. I came across these two books in a bookcase I was cleaning out and am reading them again, and enjoying it just as much as before.
Carroll is a good writer and I liked his reflections on being a dog and how it changed him for the better . The potential was there but he complicated things too much for my liking with the Pigheads and the whole fight between good and evil and political conspiracy .
A direct continuation of 'Top Dog', this book is very good - yet isn't a direct copy of 'Top Dog' at all. Nevertheless, it is still not as good as its predecessor. In the story Bogey Ingersol is back in our world, having being completely changed by his experiences in 'Top Dog'. But a strange series of events leads him to think that his nemesis from the other world, the evil wizard Zalzathar, might have chased him to this world - So Bogey must find a way to fight back! Like the previous book, this novel is witty and original. It is very fun to read, and filled with memorable characters. Overall, a really good book. My only complaint is that the ending of the book seems terribly rushed.. what was written in 5 pages should've taken at least 2 chapters. Last, one of the reviews below (I won't say which) has a VERY big spoiler in my opinion, which really ruined part of the fun and surprise of the book for me, so be careful when you read them.
I like Jerry Jay Carroll. He has a unique perspective. His books are funny, well written and entertaining. I enjoy bogey's insights and perspective. This is a good sequel to Top Dog.
Although not quite as good as Top Dog, this book was still an addictive read. I have become a fan of all of Jerry Jay Carroll's works (3 so far). Especially interesting (small give away here)........is when he gets turn into a chihuahua, not the best dog to be when you want to fight the prince of evil.
I find Carroll's quirky writing style to be easy for me to read and stay interested in even though I am not much of a fantasy reader. He has a lot of good throwaway lines and good characters.
