"Strange Labour" follows Miranda as she travels West across the U.S. in the wake of a bizarre and mysterious apocalyptic event. While ac" Read more of this review »

Robert Penner and 3 other people liked Gabrielo's review of Strange Labour: "“Not your grandfather’s post-apocalyptic road trip” is probably the best way to describe Robert Penner’s book, Strange Labour. Set in the very near future, it tells the story of Miranda, one of the few survivors of a globe-spanning catastrophe that h" Read more of this review »

Ironic Off-key Hilarity. This book was a revelation to me. It's hilarious, sophisticated, and a has just a hint of raunchiness about it. An ingenious study of some very off key characters. The indifferent eccentricity of the two titular characters mi ...more
