He wrote a bunch of very good books that defined an era and inspired people to change the world for the better.

Posting this here because more people should see what a lunatic this “author” is. Here’s an Interview where F Gardner reveals he’s a flat earther. He has destroyed all credibility and proven himself to be an absolute retard.

Save your money.

Call of the Crocodile's twist is that the family for the first half of the book never existed and were made up by a kid who browsed /x/ and tried to make a family of tulpas for himself. The twist is revealed in a chapter where the kid who you think got eaten by a crocodile is still alive and he's playing with a Ouija board in a treehouse. The treehouse is struck by lightning and the kid is hospitalized. Then there's some out of body chapters where the kid is in this DMT realm and tormented by elves and the tulpa family tries to kill him for creating them. The kid sees the reader of the book and then snaps out of the DMT trip. Then an evil cult named Ouroboros kidnaps the kid, Stephen King and JK Rowling and brings them to Dracula's Castle (which has been relocated to Chicago) because they want to burn it down with a bunch of people inside as a Satanic sacrifice for The Great Reset. The kid burns down the castle early causing the cult to flee and then the ghost of the kid's dad saves him along with Stephen King and JK Rowling and they all watch the castle burn down together.

I like it that it's in space and tells me that. They're in space and I know that now because Chicago is very different from space. I'm not really sure it happened in space but I like it anyway. It's some kind of space, maybe not "space" space, unlike Chicago and from reading this I know that. I've never been to space or Chicago but I heard it's similar but there are less stars in space. The country around Chicago is starry but not where Otto was. He was in space except space is fake and gay. He was in some kind of space. The sky was empty and I like that, not like Chicago.

I think that it's good to say how many stars are if there are less stars or more stars, and when there are no stars. Also it is good to says how the stars are in Chicago and the surrounding area otherwise it would be the case that you would not know the number of stars in Chicago, where Otto is or the surrounding area. Otto is not in Chicago unlike where Otto is.

Yes, Gardner, we know you like yourself.
Your constant self-stroking shill-spamming makes that abundantly clear.
Remember, you've been banned from practically every site on the Net.
The only reason you're still here is that it's extremely difficult to ban someone from 4chan.
This is literally your last online refuge.
And you've revealed yourself to be a sad-cringe lolcow, and so no one takes you seriously except naive newfags.
Which is almost the same thing as being banned from here.
You have no following, you have no relevance, and you're a parasite on your hapless parents, who are embarrassed daily that you turned out as feckless as you did.

It's still more deliberate than real schizos. He probably derived it from schizoposting, noticed that it interests certain people, like me. That's not a bad way of using 4chan, as a way to find these sorts of untapped resources like noticing there are readers that like schizoposts.

Have you read Call of the Crocodile? It’s batshit insane yet oddly enjoyable. Take a look at this old screencap. This is a fairly accurate summary to the start of the book. It’s incredible for all the reasons you’d never think a book would be.
