What is it about Call of the Crocodile that attracts anons from 4chan so much while simultaneously make Redditors seethe to the point of it making it to the front page of Reddit?

That's not how it is at all.
The fact is that Gardner's first 16 books are unedited pre-kindergarten gibberish & aren't worth the electrons it takes to store them on Amazon's servers.
But somehow, his 17th book is a vast improvement! Vastly fewer spelling/grammar/punctuation errors!
The MC is the usual self-insert, and the plot is the usual meandering dream-like incoherent babble, but you can't have everything.
So skip the first 16 garbage-tier books, and read Call Of United Airlines instead.
Even better, you can download it for free!

There are some rumors Gardner didn't actually write this, but I don't believe them...after all, who else in the entire world writes this crappy?

Do you have pdf links for his other books? I’d rather read them in order.

Purely a technical criticism. It is one of the worst written books to ever sell. Along with BAP's book it stands as a sickening indictment of your generation and race.
