  • "Les récits d'amis, de voisins, de détracteurs et d'admirateurs évoquent la figure fascinante ou répugnante de Buster Casey, alias Rant, qui aurait répandu une épidémie de rage ravageuse à travers le pays, devenant l'un des plus grands tueurs en série de tous les temps. Cette exploration des zones d'ombre de l'Amérique moderne raconte les maux d'une société déshumanisée."
  • "Ergens in de toekomst of in een alternatief heden ... De bevolking van Amerika is verdeeld in 'nighttimers' en 'daytimers', mensen die 's nachts leven en mensen die dat overdag doen. De 'nighttimers' gaan zich te buiten aan allerlei kicks, waaronder partycrashen: een aanrijding veroorzaken waarbij men op het nippertje aan de dood ontsnapt. De grootste partycrasher is Buster Casey, bijgenaamd Rant. Hij verongelukt echter wél tijdens het partycrashen en wordt zo een legende. Alle mensen die hem hebben gekend of die hem slechts vluchtig hebben ontmoet, doen hun verhaal. Uit hun verzamelde anekdotes blijkt dat Rant een ongewone jongen was, afkomstig uit het ongewone provinciestadje Middletown, die hele volksstammen heeft opgezadeld met hondsdolheid, en die verdacht veel op zijn vader en grootvader lijkt. Bron: Flaptekst, uitgeversinformatie."
  • "Buster "Rant" Casey just may be the most efficient serial killer of our time. A high school rebel, Rant Casey escapes from his small town home for the big city where he becomes the leader of an urban demolition derby called Party Crashing. Rant Casey will die a spectacular highway death, after which his friends gather the testimony needed to build an oral history of his short, violent life. With hilarity, horror, and blazing insight, Rant is a mind-bending vision of the future, as only Chuck Palahniuk could ever imagine. BONUS: This ebook edition includes an excerpt from Chuck Palahniuk's Doomed."@en

  • "After 21st century serial killer Buster "Rant" Casey dies in a fiery blaze of glory, three of his closest compatriots--a gang of urban demolition derby aficionados affiliated with a group calling themselves The Party Crashers--travel back to his hometown of Middleton to record an oral history of their fallen idol. Conducting interviews with Rant's family and childhood friends and enemies, they compile stories about Rant's fascination with vermin, the plague of rabies he unleashed on the world, the formation of the Party Crashers, and other legends surrounding America's newest and greatest celebrity mass murderer. But the question remains: "Who was Rant Casey?""
  • "Rant takes the form of a (fictional) oral history of Buster 'Rant' Casey, in which an assortment of friends, enemies, admirers, detractors, and relations have their say on this evil character, who may or may not be the most efficient serial killer of our time."
