Bangkok Delusions

About Bangkok Delusions:

Scott Marshall was something of a cliché. Divorced and alone he headed to Bangkok in search of something, anything. Ting, shy and innocent caught his eye. She smiled at him. For the first time in his life Marshall left his inhibitions to one side and dived in to an exciting new life. But was the delectable Ting all that she seemed? On his journey he meets the affable but hopeless Bob Lowe; economically trapped in Thailand and addicted to the sex and booze so readily available on the streets of the Big Mango. With equal amounts of joy, despair and even at times hope Zach J Brodsky takes us on a tour of an array of absurd characters all milling around a small area of Bangkok. Laugh out loud humour interspersed with tragedy.

Genesis (The New Old Testament, Season 1) by Jay Willem

Genesis (The New Old Testament, Season 1) by Jay Willem

South Park meets the Bible

The New Old Testament is a fictionalised re-imagining of the Bible as told to you by the drunk guy at the party. A drunk guy who seriously knows his scripture.

It’s part adaptation, part commentary, and 100% not for people who take the Bible too seriously. It shares just as much DNA with animated shows like South Park, Rick and Morty, and Archer as it does with the Old Testament.

Not Going Gently by Alex Henderson

About Not Going Gently by Alex Henderson:

Things aren’t going so well for elderly widower Mitch.
His daughter thinks he’s rushed himself into a residential dementia centre before he becomes a burden upon her. In truth he’s more worried that if he doesn’t lock himself away then the secrets of his past will get out.
The care home could be a whole lot nicer, but it’s all he can afford and, anyway, Mitch is determined. He’s sold his house and signed his freedom away. Let them take care of him for the muddled remainder of his days.
Except that he’s not really in need of a place like this yet. And far worse – his former best friend and old band mate Ray is already here.
The last person he’d ever want to be trapped with.
Especially since the secrets are about him.
With a cast of vivid characters who will shock and delight in equal measure, Alex Henderson’s latest is a poignant and darkly hilarious tale of friendship, regret and the need to squeeze the juice out of every day we’re given.

Mel and Shar’s Erotic Adventures: Tales from the Boomer Life by Maddy Bordeaux

About Mel and Shar’s Erotic Adventures: Tales from the Boomer Life by Maddy Bordeaux:

Are baby boomers panting for Elderly Erotica?

Mel and Shar, two friends of a certain age, say, “Absolutely!”

So, despite the fact that neither lady has ever watched a porn video or read anything steamier than Eighties romances, they decide Elderly Erotica is their ticket to fame and fortune.

Because…why not?

Surely, at least a few of their fellow boomers—who were once into sex, drugs, and rock ‘n roll—remain interested in something spicier than the Senior’s Menu at Black-eyed Pea.

Can Mel and Shar start a successful porn business by filming certain sexual acts—later TBD–with a smartphone?
Can they write successful erotica with only a passing acquaintance of four-letter-words, not to mention marginal computer skills?

Follow the adventures of Mel McCartney and Shar Ledowsky, as they kind of, sort of explore the world of Elderly Erotica.

And, if they become porn clowns who host political porn parties in order to increase voter registration; are picketed by protestors of their C***y, C** and C**ks: Recipes for Desire cookbook; and become intimately acquainted with one Hot Shot police officer along the way, well…
That just proves Mel and Shar are up for anything.

Okay, to clarify:

They’re up for a couple of things…

The Perfect Culture

About The Perfect Culture:

Thomas Gephardt is a world traveller. Or at least he would like to be one. Determined to leave the confines of his sheltered upbringing in the United States, he voyages to France to expand his horizons. He spends three months with a French family in Bordeaux, working in a local hotel. Inspired by these experiences, Thomas has plans to continue travelling. However, a romantic interest in Paris—an Israeli woman named Sendi—complicates matters. He leaves but remains in contact with Sendi while he lives abroad in Japan as an English teacher and then in Israel as a volunteer on a kibbutz.

Throughout his explorations, Thomas attempts to probe deeply into his experiences and to ponder big questions: What is the value of foreign travel? What is unique about each of these three cultures? How is each country shaped by its history? On the lighter side, Thomas has a variety of experiences—he is seen as a “quasi-alien” in a French restaurant, he wonders if he can meet expectations as a “talking monkey” in Japan, and he is informed that, unlike in The Big Lebowski, he definitely cannot roll on Shabbos in Israel.

Bill Bryson meets J.D. Salinger, The Perfect Culture is full of satirical observations and thoughtful analysis of travel, people, and customs.

Haunting of the Blackthorne House

About Haunting of the Blackthorne House:

The town of Blackwater is fraught with evil, which consumes us all, one way or another.

There has to be an origin, a start to all things, whether righteous or sinister. But what if righteousness is never a choice? Or what if you’re a pawn in the grand scheme of things?

When Joseph Blackthorne gets the opportunity of a lifetime, he jumps at it. He does not believe in the supernatural and thinks it’s the results of folklore or the fallible human psyche. But he doesn’t heed all the warnings and relocates his house to a forbidden hill which begins a series of events that will shake this town to its core.

As the mysterious history of Blackwater unravels, Joseph conceals his problems with alcohol but history–like his drinking–keeps repeating itself. Is it too late to save his family, business, town, or hell even himself?

The Cover Up

About The Cover Up:

What links a webcam girl, a cross-dressing police chief and an escaped ferret?

A British nation torn by Brexit staggers on. Frankie Ferret, a pre-school children’s TV celebrity escapes into sewers of London and surely is dead. The people unite in grief. Police Chiefs, counselors and politicos stand in tear stained sincerity with the common people. Viktor Pinupskin of Russia offers a genetically modified bear cub with his own face as a substitute. Internet bots urge a vote and attempt to sway the masses. Chaos and panic threaten to destroy the economy.

Into the mix steps young police inspector Crispin Bissel. His mission is to lead the search and target PR for the cops. His ex girlfriend, Selena Fontesse is a mature ex web cam girl specializing in veggie porn. She has the looks and the bosom to comfort a people broken by sorrow.
Could love be re-kindled over an open drain? Could Frankie be alive? Could a billionaire, a hot air balloon, a pop star, and a staring messianic child bring happiness back to a population in despair? And what if the big plans were to fail?
What if there were a cover up?

A deplorable basket case of a book. All right thinking people should be offended. Cross dressing vegan cannibals will love this story. There’s no safe space on campus when a ferret like Frankie gets into the pipes. A tender love story, an outrageous unfair satire, an expose of the media-cult whirl in which we live where news, fake news and spin are the currencies of coercion.

Buy this book and forgive yourself for laughing. It’s not incorrect if you didn’t mean to.

Reality Barks by Kit James

About Reality Barks by Kit James:

From Kit James –praised for his “humorous canine dialogue” by author Elaine Bertolotti, comes a wickedly funny, tenderhearted DWC – Dog With Character, who unleashes his feelings about his bizarre relationship with his new humans.

Booranyup Dog Pound is the last place a lost dog wants to end up. He knows his days are numbered. All the dogs do. Reality Barks. So this one, “Barney”, an ordinary country mutt, is amazed when two glossy Sydney Metro couples adopt him and catapult into the confusing life of a Timeshare dog. Suddenly “Barney” becomes “Elliott”, and shuttles between their two up-market homes and their Timeshare Beach House. What happens then forever changes the Aussie bitser’s life. It’s Elliott’s “doggy confidential” story of rescue and redemption, tears, fears and laughter. He’s a clever dog with a nose for a plot. He understands everything his Metros say. Even stranger, he can read their auras too- so he always knows when Jamie, the Alpha Human of the pack, is up to no good. Then, when Jamie’s Big Plan surprises even him, Elliott has no option but to go for broke. He’s in, win, lose or draw. Dogs can dream too!

A Life Stage Soundcheck

About A Life Stage Soundcheck:

If you have a dream, don’t let it go.

Carla Cafaro has loved music from the time she was little. But following the advice her dad gave her as a kid isn’t so easy as an adult. Now twenty-five, Carla is marking time waiting for her life to happen. Caught up in a life of complacency in the same town where she grew up, she has bills to pay, an uninspiring job as a debt collector, weekly family dinners, and one meaningless hookup after another. Worst of all, she hasn’t been able to write a single song lyric in months.

When she meets guitarist Nico, everything she’s always wanted suddenly seems within reach—including the rekindling of her passion for music. But it turns out Nico may not be the answer to all her problems, and before long, everything is spiraling out of control. As the soundtrack of her life plays back the memories of her past, Carla is forced to reexamine what’s really important to her, and decide if she has the courage to change her life… and follow her dreams.
