''If they don't act fast, they'll never get out alive...'' Eight desperate castaways find themselves stranded on a mysterious deserted island. They are surrounded by poisonous blue plants and an ocean made of acid. Strange creatures lurk in the shadows. The ghostly sound of crying babies can be heard on the wind... Once they realize the rescue ships aren't coming, the eight castaways must band together in order to survive in this inhospitable environment. But survival might not be possible. The air they breathe is toxic, there is no shelter from the elements, and the only food they have to consume is the squid-shaped tumors that grow from a mentally disturbed woman's body. From the crazy imagination of bizarro fiction master Carlton Mellick III comes ''Tumor Fruit''-an intense survival story full of eccentric characters, nail-biting suspense, and unpredictable twists. Like ''LOST'' on steroids, for the bizarro generation.
