Synopsis "Chomp "

In this hysterical #1 New York Times bestseller, one kid has to wrangle gators, snakes, bats that bite, and a reality show host gone rogue! This is Carl Hiaasen's Florida--where the creatures are wild and the people are wilder! When Wahoo Cray's dad--a professional animal wrangler--takes a job with a reality TV show called Expedition Survival!, Wahoo figures he'll have to do a bit of wrangling himself to keep his father from killing Derek Badger, the show's inept and egotistical star. But the job keeps getting more complicated: Derek Badger insists on using wild animals for his stunts; and Wahoo's acquired a shadow named Tuna--a girl who's sporting a shiner courtesy of her father and needs a place to hide out. They've only been on location in the Everglades for a day before Derek gets bitten by a bat and goes missing in a storm. Search parties head out and promptly get lost themselves. And then Tuna's dad shows up with a gun . . . It's anyone's guess who will actually survive Expedition Survival. . . "Only in Florida--and in the fiction of its native son Carl Hiaasen--does a dead iguana fall from a palm tree and kill somebody." --New York Post "Chomp is a delightful laugh-out-loud sendup of the surreality of TV that will be enjoyed by readers of all ages." --Los Angeles Times

Carl Hiaasen nació el 12 de marzo de 1953 en Fort Lauderdale, Florida. Desde niño mostró pasión por la escritura, incentivado por su padre al regalarle una máquina de escribir. Se graduó en periodismo en 1974 y comenzó su carrera como reportero en el Miami Herald desde 1976, donde trabajó en distintos roles hasta convertirse en columnista de opinión entre 1985 y 2021.

Paralelamente a su labor periodística, Hiaasen inició su carrera literaria en los años ochenta colaborando con William D. Montalbano en varias novelas de misterio. Su debut en solitario llegó en 1986 con Tourist Season, una comedia satírica ambientada en Florida. Desde entonces ha publicado numerosas novelas para adultos, muchas de ellas bestsellers, famosas por mezclar humor mordaz, acción y una crítica corrosiva a la corrupción política y el ecologismo descuidado, todo ello con un estilo muy centrado en su estado natal.

También ha disfrutado de gran éxito entre lectores jóvenes. Su novela Hoot ganó un prestigioso reconocimiento en la literatura infantil y fue adaptada al cine. Además, ha escrito títulos como Bad Monkey —convertido recientemente en serie de televisión— y diversos libros de humor y sátira política.

Hiaasen es considerado uno de los grandes cronistas sarcásticos de Florida, combinando un compromiso ambiental con un humor irreverente que ha conquistado a miles de lectores.
