Seagulls Over Westminster by Richard Wade (51 Reviews)    Price verified 15 hours ago

A political thriller for our time, but with a strand of gentle humour woven through it, making this intriguing story into an entertaining page turner. Its 2024. Popular TV chat show host, and former MP, Bradley Deakin is the man wanted by the Opposition Party of the day to lead them back to power, breaking the chain of endless hung parliaments and uninspiring political leaders. They just need to get him elected first. Meanwhile, in Brighton, retired bank manager Harvey Britten is enjoying life with the three things he loves most - his family, the city of his birth and his beloved football team, Brighton and Hove Albion, (known locally as The Seagulls). His support for the team has led to a regular spot on the local radio breakfast show, which has turned him into something of a minor celebrity. It proves very difficult to find Bradley a suitable by-election until one unexpectedly occurs in Brighton. But Harvey strongly objects to a big shot candidate like Deakin being parachuted into his city and is reluctantly persuaded by his family and radio listeners to stand against him as a protest candidate. But only in the knowledge that he won't actually win! The race is otherwise between Bradley and the Government party candidate, Alistair Buckland, a local Councillor with a big secret. But as the campaign is gradually engulfed in scandal and conspiracy theories, it throws the whole contest wide open. Can a high class call girl with a plan for revenge change the outcome? Just how far did Bradley and his team go to cause the by-election in the first place? Will Harvey's worst nightmare come true, in that he might actually win? And how bad does it have to get for a candidate before their loyal party supporters will refuse to vote for them? As each candidate increasingly has to defend themselves against more and more serious accusations, both they and the people they love soon realise that there's far more at stake for them all than just who will end up winning ...

Lenny "the Lier" Pines is an inept liar and con, serving a 15-year sentence in a Texas prison for murder on a technicality.

Compelled by this supposed "mission from God," Lenny pulls an unexpected cut and run from prison the eve of his hearing. With little more than determination and desperation, he embarks on a quest to convince his estranged corporate executive son to forsake his job and fiancé and help his dad fulfill his baffling mission "from God."

Hits to the Dome: The Chronicles of a Small Town Volume 1: Parts 1-6 by Selby Wost (4 Reviews)    Price verified 10 hours ago

Worcester, New Hampshire, is a cesspool. It used to be a nice town until a wave of wealthy and clueless liberals took charge. Rome, Dakota, Richie, and Donny are four 14-year-old-boys who have to live in this collapsing hellscape, and they hate it. Everywhere they turn, there's a bum shooting up or taking a dump. Stoned hippies walk down the street with an aura of arrogance and self-satisfaction. At school, their commie teachers no longer bother with teaching actual subjects. Instead, all they do is praise themselves for their activism and force their viewpoints on their students. It seems like the four friends can't even walk home without some random demonstration blocking their way. They devise various plots to act out against the lunacy, setting them at odds with both the cops and the new-age Marxist regime. In a world full of parents, police, protesters, and pedophiles, the four friends are desperately trying to get by. The perils are numerous -- diversity festivals, molestation shacks, stoned elderly drivers listening to NPR, bum fights, shanty towns, and drug-addicted vagrants are all commonplace -- but our valiant heroes will fight to the last man.

Dabbler in Drabbles, Volume Three: 300 short stories by Rhys Hughes (Gibbon Moon Books) Price verified 7 hours ago

A drabble is a flash fiction that is exactly one hundred words long. And here we have a cyclops who is writing them and telling them to his friend, a centaur. Three hundred drabbles. The stories are miniature adventures, comedies and tragedies, tales of space and time, accounts of voyages and discoveries, many of them ironic or paradoxical, some of them featuring robots and monsters and ghosts, but each one compressed into an easily-digested snack for the mind. And this is the third volume of four... "If I said he was a Welsh writer who writes as though he has gone to school with the best writing from all over the world, I wonder if my compliment would just sound provincial. Hughes' style, with all that means, is among the most beautiful I've encountered in several years." -- SAMUEL R. DELANY "Rhys Hughes seems almost the sum of our planet's literature. He toys with convention. He makes the metaphysical political, the personal incredible and the comic hints at subtle pain. Few living fictioneers approach this chef's sardonic confections, certainly not in English." -- MICHAEL MOORCOCK "It's a crime that Rhys Hughes is not as widely known as Italo Calvino and other writers of that stature. Brilliantly written and conceived, Hughes' fiction has few parallels anywhere in the world. In some alternate universe with a better sense of justice, his work triumphantly parades across all bestseller lists." -- JEFF VANDERMEER

MYTHS by Erika Price (English Prime Press) (34 Reviews)    Price verified 9 hours ago

Hera was a gorgeous megab*tch, but she was fantastic at Scrabble. Aphrodite was just jealous. Salome was a Toddler in a Tiara, Athena was cute in a spunky, Ellen Page kinda way, and Scheherazade was an attention-starved blogger. Persephone and Hades were only on a trial separation. Pandora just opened the box because she was hella bored. In this short story collection by Erika Price (author of Corpus Callosum), gods and goddesses from bygone eras are reimagined as hilarious contemporary analogues and released on a hapless modern world. The result is a frenetic, rip-roarious send-up of modern feminism, psychotherapy, relationship dynamics, and socioeconomic exchange. In MYTHS, new creation stories are laid down, the world is destroyed and created anew, and the more things change, the more petty human nature stays the same.

Armed with the task of stepping out of her comfort zone by her therapist, Blakely quickly realizes that fresh mountain air, roommate chore charts, and Tucker Greyson, the annoyingly handsome housemate she didn't bargain for, might not fix her broken ego. Finding herself stuck in between a surreal episode of The Bachelor run by the Greyson Gap Golden Girls brigade, and her hunky housemate wanting to be friends with benefits, Blakely discovers she kind of likes the simpler life -- going camping, catching fish, wearing hiking boots, and, perhaps, falling in love. Ex- baseball star, Tucker Greyson, prefers to be alone in the small mountain town where he grew up. The last thing he needs is a high-strung, clean-obsessed roommate for the summer. He hatches a plan to drive her perfectionist sensibilities into overdrive and out of his house. What he doesn't expect is to fall for her. He tells himself to keep it simple and not let his heart get involved, but when Blakely gets called back to her old life, Tucker realizes he has more to lose than just a summer roommate.
