Neon Blacktop by T/James Reagan (RiverVerse Entertainment) (1 Review)    Price verified 6 hours ago

In this neon-noir, Gabe, a quiet twenty-something, works at a small independent movie theater called The Waldorf. The pay is bad and the showings are never more than half full, but Gabe doesn't care, because The Waldorf is the only place where he can experience the neon blue smoke- a wintergreen pleasure that rolls off the film screen like the sweetest drug. Gabe's life is thrown into disarray when The Waldorf is closed, and he can no longer get his fix of smoke. Choosing to leave his one true love behind, Gabe sets out to find another theater that can conjure a sensation that he's become addicted to. During Gabe's road trip, his motorcycle breaks down, so he checks into The Dorchester Motor Inn until it can be fixed. While staying at the motel, Gabe meets Becky, who was instructed by a bizarre entity to meet with him. Together, the couple realizes that they might both be experiencing the same high strangeness, and this begins a search for answers. Neon Blacktop confronts such topics as the death of cinema culture, the rise in conspiracy theories, and the struggle of how to find the truth in a world overflowing with disinformation. Neon Blacktop is written in the tradition of the films of Richard Kelly, so lovers of Donnie Darko and The Box will find their craving for deeply emotional sci-fi satisfied in this story that is both intimate and sprawling.

The thing about Thor is, he's great at swinging that hammer. But he doesn't settle down. Harlan Kristiansen may not be good at many things, but he can sure catch a pass. He's an All-Pro at charming a room, too, and then there's that Norse God thing. He can even figure out how to tackle a woman and save her from a charging bison. On skis. What happens when you drop that game-winning pass, though, and your house is too big, too weird, and too empty? When your dad's a mean drunk, your mom took off a long time ago and stayed gone, and all your money can't keep your little sister safe? You fall back on what you know, that's what. Hey, somebody has to swim in the shallow end of the pool. Jennifer Cardello is good at lots of things. She knows how to get the most out of the cheapest cuts of meat, how long after the expiration date you can still use any food, and how to be indispensable to her employer. And as for faking an orgasm? She could win an Oscar. But surely a woman who's been trying to fade into the background for more than half her life so she doesn't have to hear the whispers, a woman who's lost her mom, is losing her job, and is sending her baby girl off to college -- and trying to figure out how to pay for it -- is entitled to one unforgettable night. In thirty-four years. With a great guy she never has to see again. Until old secrets get dug up, and new ones are born. After that? It's anybody's guess.

Shivers of excitement shot up my spine. It was time to draw a line under the past and find a new me. By forty, I thought I'd be living my best life. When my idiot husband gambles away our savings, I divorce him and try not to kick him in the nuts when he fights me for custody of my cat. I throw myself into teaching English and survival skills to anyone unlucky enough to land in my night class in godforsaken London. That is, until my mum dies in a car crash and I suspect foul play. That's when it really gets weird. Mum's barely cold in the ground when my cat goes missing. To top it all, the Metropolitan Police don't seem to have heard of the detective investigating the accident.

When a mysterious man tells me I'm the last of an ancient magical druid lineage, I laugh in his face, but I'm intrigued. I want to believe there's more to life than a messy divorce and a dead-end career. It doesn't seem crazy to follow him into the undergrowth in Crystal Palace Park.
