Post Oh!pocalypto Poppycock
The beginning of the middle of the end is here, and it has a name:
POST OH!POCALYPTO POPPYCOCK
A farce in three acts! Who knew the apocalypse could be so much fun? Follow our cast on an adventure through the city of Las Vegas, where everyone in town wants to get their hands on a stolen black case and a beautiful Princess. There are amazing car chases, tons of super cool cameos, arguably the greatest rock concert of all time, and what sort of apocalyptic adventure would it be if we didn't save the entire planet by the end of the show?
Post Oh!pocalypto Poppycock may be the most important literary work of a generation. Of course, "may" and "important" are broadly defined terms, so don't take our word for it:
"Like reading someone overact." - Vampire Gene Siskel
"This is where we're headed folks! Hellfire, brimstone..." - The Reverend Jimmy "Gimme" Cash
"This book goes blue early and never looks back, so basically the author stole my shtick." - The Archangel Lenny Bruce
"This guy doesn't even know how to spell right and stuff, but I liked it." - Anonymous subway patron
"This book reads like it was written by a 12 year old child on LSD." - Truant's 12 year old nephew
"It's filthy, but if you can get through the layer of filth, underneath, you will find a whole other layer of filth." - Your mom
"Haplessly irreverent." - My mom
"Truant Memphis' attempts to make a mockery of the English language are a mockery of themselves. Sophomoric at best." - Every tenth grade English Teacher ever
"The fastest action sequences I've ever read!" - Patrick Swayze's ghost
"It's music for Millennials, man." - Confused stoner
"The author's sense of hopefulness for humanity demonstrated throughout the story is as childish and unrealistic as the story itself." - Steve

-Update 12/5/22 - Saving Maria is being shopped to agents and publishers. The Boy Who Fell From The Past is now available at all your major online outlets (more about the this little guy below).
Littlethumb Sneezed is at its heart, a humorous character study of a fella with an unusual life. It is mostly a comedy, often silly and absurd, with a little bit of mystery, danger, and tragedy as well. Life isn't always funny, right? Neither is Littlethumb's story.
Post Oh!pocalypto Poppycock is a sci-fi/fantasy farce set in Las Vegas during the apocalypse. If you enjoy a good spoof and making fun of, well, everything, you should definitely read this book.
Daffodil is an existential odyssey through space, time, and a young woman's mind. I like to think of it as an adventure story with Holden Caulfield's attitude, if Holden had grown up and gone to work for God.
The Boy Who Fell From The Past is a literary young adult sci-fi/action adventure novella. It's a passage from my own adventures into the future, and an introduction to several characters I meet who will be revisited in alternate realities.
In regards to the books I have reviewed, you may notice they are all pretty highly ranked. I only list books that I like.

Fun romp,but needs spellchecker.
This was a funny read, in the style of Robert Rankin. The first half I did keep getting lost as to which gang did what, and I much preferred it when the caper began to come together. Some groups didn't sustain my interest as much as others, but fiction doesn't need to be fair. It did bring smiles to my face. It did however lose a star because of the amount of spelling errors or autocorrect issues. I did read it via a kindle, so I don't know if a hardcopy would be different. It did start to drive me loopy. I was gifted the book via Voracious, but decided to buy a copy from Amazon after I started reading it, for fairness to the author putting six years of work into it!
