Britpop, booze, cults, and a questionable Chinese restaurant bar? It's 1995 and small-time music critic Drew has a desire for destruction. While championing an underdog Irish band, Whipping Boy, he embarks on a voyage of sex and drugs from Boston to Belfast while burying memories of his estranged wife - who is now in danger. His life was once saved by rock 'n' roll, but it may be too late for redemption in the last days of the music industry before the bubble bursts. Whether dropped by your record label or dropped by a lover--these situations call for a drink.

Review Vendetta's strengths as a writer don't just include an encyclopaedic knowledge of '80s and '90s UK indie/shoegaze/Britpop, but also an ability to cultivate sentences and paragraphs that make it almost impossible to put this book down.-- Matthew Berlyant, The Big Takeover Vendetta is obviously a serious indie fan and, in amidst all the Blur, Oasis and Verve references, the pages of this enjoyably witty and fast paced novel are littered with the names of relatively obscure bands that you've probably forgotten - Lush, Auteurs, Ultra Vivid Scene, Cast, etc. Immediately after finishing Heartworm, this reviewer spent several hours revisiting the '90s on YouTube.-- Olaf Tyaransen, Hot Press Heartworm will make you nostalgic for the mid-1990s Brit-rock scene - even if you never lived through the era. But this is no moody walk down memory lane. The second book in Vendetta's trilogy about rock journalist Drew is a moving and often very funny look at growing older, sometimes not so gracefully, as the post-college years turn into adulthood. And, it comes with a great soundtrack, from the Jesus and Mary Chain to Oasis to Whipping Boy.-- Laura DeMarco, Cleveland Plain Dealer

Absolutely LOVED this book - music + love + life By WXRVDJ I wouldn't describe myself as a nostalgic person but once I picked up "Heartworm", I couldn't stop reading it. Aside from being set against the backdrop of one of my favorites times in music, the Britpop Explosion, Vendetta has really wonderful knack for subtly evoking emotions & personal memories without being overwrought. The emotional premise of the story (and plot) is the main character, music journalist Drew's life hasn't quite sorted out as planned. Yes, he married the love of his life. Yes, he had a dream career in the music business. (The first installment, "Wivenhoe Park" does a great job chronicling that time). When Drew gets into his late 20s/early 30s, he realizing that his life doesn't quite feel as happy and fulfilling as it once did. It's not because he doesn't love music or Claire, it's just that time marches on & things change. He's growing up; life's had a few major bumps; Claire is struggling; and the music industry is evolving. Drew is trying to process all the changes & find his spot in all of it...all while listening to & being inspired by amazing music.Rumor has it that there's going to be a 3rd installment (ladies love trilogies!). So, I can't wait to see where Drew lands and what music he's listening to...I am routing for him!

The second installment of Ben Vendetta’s Trilogy of life and vintage Rock n Roll; Heartworm truly stands on its own merit. It can be read either in sequence after the great Wivenhoe Park, or as its own individual work unto itself with equal pleasure.It is a book about disillusion, aging, failed relationships, increasingly mechanical and sinful lust, drinking, and the soundtrack we piece together to help make sense of it all. In the case of this book, Whipping Boy’s Heartworm, which one reviewer described as “an earth-shatteringly powerful experience” becomes the central soundtrack (in fact, title) for Vendetta’s Drew.Yet, Heartworm the book is more electrifying than depressing. Reading Vendetta is like mainlining adrenaline. You strive to keep up with his hero as he travels from continent to continent, venue to venue, bar to bar, and all the scene kids, pop stars, and attractive females with killer taste in music in-between these remarkably evoked locations. The Red Dragon, alone, is worth the price of admission.Cannot wait for Book 3,

The result is an honest, exciting account of what it's like to chase dreams, and a life, that don't necessarily fit with the 9 to 5 world. The rewards (and the risks) are a lot higher, and Heartworm lets you experience both.Ben Vendetta has a tight, economical writing style that keeps you turning the pages. His story moves fast, but still does a great job placing us right there next to Drew. You can practically smell the smoke and feel the bass drum in your stomach. And I definitely felt my body sag a bit whenever Drew received bad or disappointing news.I can't recommend Heartworm enough. You'll read it fast, because you want to know what happens next. And you'll miss it once you're done. But you'll be glad you did.
