Lampooning both the Fantasy and Sci-fi genres, the TGSPGoSSP skewers over-played tropes in Monty-Python fashion, calling on well-established satire and dark humor, popular culture, and a plethora of deadpan "dad jokes." If nobody has to explain the jokes on Big-Bang Theory to you, the this Two-Part Trilogy might be the perfect thing to read on the toilet... while still on the time-clock.Imagine if Monty Python’s Flying Circus lived in your head or you were a cynical curmudgeon (like a cross between a broke Donald Trump and Clint Eastwood’s character from Gran Torino) but weren’t mean enough to actual articulate the thoughts about people that sometimes amble through your head, begging to be voiced. That sort of lampooning might migrate to the fingers and be printed, rather than vocalized… and remember there’s a difference between libel and slander—they are separate crimes according to the law.The TGSPGoSSP 2-Part Trilogy mocks our beloved niches in genre fiction. All three books take shots at the usual suspects, both Fantasy and Sci-Fi in...Part A: The Epic Quest of Big EpicnessPart II: Start Wreck-The Trouble With ToastersLet me tell you who they TGSPGoSSP are: a bunch of imaginary friends who live inside my head and keep me just inside the thin line that separates the foil-hat basket-weavers from the asylum admin. Yes, I have imaginary friends… and half of them even like me. Views: 636
