Real Love knows no realities.

The Multiverse's first power couple were once a lonly queen and a king who had lost his kingdom.

this is the story of how a multivers in Khaos brought them together.


Review

Khaos is coming and only the apocalypse blockers can stop it from destroying all the worlds in every dimension. How they do it is anyone’s guess.

Bob and Fred are sent out into the universe to find and recruit the other blockers spread around the dimensions and first is Karen, queen of the Hobean, complete with her battle knickers.

What follows is a hilarious tale that has laugh out loud dialog and the kind of mad situations that would feel right at home in the mind of former Goon Spike Milligan (ask your dad\grandad)

The characters are wonderful, the situations sheer lunacy and the whole thing is just completely mad.

This is not going to be everyone’s cup of tea but for anyone who likes their sci-fi laced with a large dollop of insanity then this is for you. It’s probably not recommended that you read it on the underground or they’ll be escorting you from the train at the next stop.

The author should be hailed as a genius or put in a strait jacket for all eternity – I’ll leave it up to you to decide 


The Author

Simon Carr is, well he is me, hello, I write utter nonsense and you are a disgrace for reading it, the hell is wrong with you?

but since you are here we might as well revel in the soup of irrational absurdity together because it is somthing to do!

I could tell you where I come from and where I live but how the hell do I know you are not some kind of psychopath!?

I think any writer who has ever read Misery should just avoid that poison apple myself, all you need to know is I am English and support Blackburn Rovers (BLAST!)

That does not mean I live in Blackburn; ok, I live in Blackburn but it's a big place, you will never find me, you weirdo!


I like knitting, collecting empty beer cans, and slapping dead birds just to make sure, I hope for world peace and an end to climate change, gender representative jelly babies, and fat people to get skinny really easily using just a DVD.

Favourite Books of 2023

With 2024 now nearly a week old, I thought I'd compile a list of my top ten books of 2023. Unfortunately I've not been able to whittle it down to just ten so I tried to make it my favourite ten authors. Once again I failed as there are so many great books I didn't want to leave out. Even so I've had to be harsh and leave out many that would've made last years list (what do you mean I didn't publish a list last year? Yeah, I know, I was too busy reading and writing reviews and I completely forgot) My list is composed of 15 authors and contains 42 books from a variety of genres (it could easily have been 60 books from the 400 I read last year (ok, some of those were quite short and I've not got much else to do) Lets get on with it I hear you yell, so without further ado and in no particular order, these were my favourite reads of 2023 Scratch that. I'm going to list them in alphabetical order by author surname so no further favouritism can be gleaned from

He believes in saving souls, but Charles Balcombe is beyond saving. His control over his killer instinct appears to be weakening. BlackJack has killed again and more questions are being asked of Detective Inspector Munro. He is under increasing pressure to solve the murders, especially when he picks up more cases from Kowloon rather than solving his own. As Balcombe battles with his demon, he investigates the death of a young woman. Was it an accident or did she kill herself? At first Balcombe thinks it's straightforward but as he digs, other cases reveal an evil in Hong Kong. One that could consume them all. Set in 1954, this is book 2 of the series. It can be read as a stand-alone but the author recommends boo
