From Storywell Publishing, Nicholas de Kruyff’s Debut Novel!
Slippery Times now available wherever fine books are hawked.
Somewhat fitting that ‘debt’ needs just U to turn into ‘debut’.
Slippery Times is a surreal, sci-fi farce, packed with outrageous characters in bizarre circumstances. If you like your humour with a touch of mind-bending lunacy, you’ll most probably enjoy Slippery Times.
BIO: When very young, Nicholas de Kruyff would pester his parents until they read to him.
Comics, Greek myths, cereal boxes, signs on the highway, labels on jars — anything with words was fair game. Frustrated at having to constantly wait for a parental being to succumb to his constant pleas, he learned to read at a young age, much to the relief of his parents. The entire world opened up.
His short fiction has appeared in The Magazine of Fantasy and Science Fiction, On Spec, and Parsec.
A relentless optimist, he lives in Toronto, Canada with his amazing wife and sparkling daughters. Slippery Times is his first (published) novel.
A MAN FOR OUR SLIPPERY TIMES
EDMUND LOVENIGHT would much rather party in Soho with the Dalai Lama than actually, you know, work. But when a dead cabbie named REG shows up with a message from the world’s most cantankerous matron-of-arms, Lovenight embarks on a mission to rescue all of existence from a renegade archetype. Together with a stoned film student and a surly talking pug named ‘Noodles’, can Lovenight and Reg save the universe? Or will they muck it up? And will Lovenight ever get back to that swinging party in Soho?
Slippery Times is cross-dimensional romp, packed with irreverence, glee, and several new and innovative cuss-words.
