Death by Veggies is a collection of short stories focused on one question: What if eating veggies really will kill you? In these five tales of revenge, persistence, and renewal, you'll meet two gardeners, a sous chef, a pumpkin carver, and a retired assassin, all using vegetables as their weapon of choice - in unexpected and often unsavory ways. Are these would-be heroes justified in their unorthodox use of carrots, beets, lettuce, sprouts and pumpkin, or did someone hit 'em in the head with a potato? You be the judge.
This collection includes the new story, 24 Carrots, as well as Lettuce Prey, Sprouted, Jack and Beet It.
