The Swimming Pool from Another Freaking Dimension (eBook, ePUB)

• Format: ePub

Produktbeschreibung

When the world's on fire and your garden sprinkler is not going to cut it, there's only one thing to do: just dig. But the town's hillbillies are laughing behind your back and your so-called mates are laying bets on you burying yourself alive and spiders are breeding in your 3D printer and those fires are inching closer every freaking day. Just dig, baby.

Stranded in a mountaintop suburb monitored by military drones and plagued by wildlife and weather gone crazy, Dezzy and his teenaged neighbour, Sonia, are just trying to save their homes from the next megafires - by digging the biggest, deepest, most badass swimming pool possible. A chlorinated moat at the edge of their derelict suburb that might also provide a refreshing dip in between raging infernos. Only they dig up more than they bargained for, a hell of a lot more. Never mind the secret military base, the burn-scarred locals and their Truth Church, or those birds attacking people out of the blue, because Dezzy and Sonia have bigger things to worry about, things perhaps not of this freaking near-future reality.

Autorenporträt

Tony McGowan penned Australia's first novel about surfboat rowing and has since written about crime reporting, outlaw bikers and some really disgusting diseases. He's been a tabloid journalist in Sydney, a contributor to Playboy Magazine, a ghostwriter for starchy German managers in Stuttgart, as well as an English high school teacher in Madagascar. He's also lived in West Africa, where he was a regular at the mask-dance festivals around Ouagadougou and where he had to leave Mali in a hurry on account of a military coup and a bitter dispute over a broken toilet seat at the local markets. These days he works as a science/ medical writer while fooling around with science fiction on the side.
