ook 1 in the USA Today Bestselling McMaster the Disaster series.
Josephine McMaster is pretty and smart, but very much a klutzy mess. Finally, at 26, she may have actually lost the dreaded ‘McMaster the Disaster’ nickname that has followed her around her whole life.
Josie’s quite content to be single, much to her mother’s disappointment. So when a bizarre contest is announced where a socialite is holding a lottery to pick her bridesmaids (and rake in a little extra cash), she can’t roll her eyes fast enough, even if it does mean meeting Jake Hall, her one and only movie star crush. Obviously, Josie doesn’t enter the bridesmaid lottery, so you can imagine her surprise when her picture pops up among the winners, thanks to Mom. With a little prodding — okay bribing — Josie agrees to participate.
The wedding turns into the event of the year, and Josie finds herself in the middle of a paparazzi feeding frenzy, which gets even crazier after Jake Hall takes a special interest in her.
Can Josie handle the pressure in the spotlight? Is it possible she might really have a chance with Jake Hall? And if she’s busy worrying about all that, how in the heck is she going to keep ‘McMaster the Disaster’ from showing up in front of the entire world?

**************************************
They say that nothing much ever happens in Brentford, the West London suburb, known mostly for nylons and a battle fought so long ago that few can even remember the date. But, when Neville the part time barman of The Flying Swan, encounters a tramp of dreadful aspect and sorry footwear, things change forever. An ancient evil stalks the streets and terror spreads across the borough. The evil in question proves to be a demonic incarnation of the notorious Borgia Pope, Alexander the Sixth. Who seeks to establish a new Vatican in the local Seaman’s Mission and raise an army of brain-washed slaves, in a bid to conquer the world (which is often the way with super-villains).
THE ANTIPOPE is Robert Rankin’s first novel, written more than thirty years ago and hailed as a classic of Far Fetched Fiction (at least by Rankin himself, who invented the genre in the hope that he would get his own shelf in bookshops and not have to compete with other authors).
It features the adventures of Jim Pooley and John Omally, unemployed bachelors of the parish, who prefer to spend their days in the un-heroic pursuits of drinking, betting and womanizing, but find themselves drawn into a series of epic adventures.
Here too is Archroy, whose wife has sold his Morris Minor to a gypsy in return for five magic beans; Professor Slocombe, Brentford’s mystically-inclined patriarch; Soap Distant, notable mole-man and hollow-Earth enthusiast; and corner shop-keeper Norman Hartnell (who is not to be confused with the other Norman Hartnell – look him up on Wikipedia!).
Together they form a glittering cast of uniquely eccentric, lovable and fantastical characters who stride, sidle across or explode onto the pages of seven Brentford adventures (or nine, if you include THE BRIGHTONOMICON and RETROMANCER, which feature a teenage Jim Pooley) fearlessly challenging all those who threaten the suburb, saving the world from aliens, town-planners and other monsters in human form or otherwise.
Many say that Robert Rankin is a bit like Marmite. You either love him or hate him. Or indeed cornflakes, as you might well have forgotten just how good he is.
Despite his reputation as an unrepentant Luddite (he really does still write his novels in exercise books with a biro) he has overcome his natural suspicion of 21st century technology to make his novels available to download and keep forever on your Kindle. All of his remaining early titles will be released throughout 2012 with new cover art and extra bits and bobs where possible. It is hoped that you will enjoy reading them as much as he enjoyed writing them. And if there are any typos or errors he offers his sincere apologies. He really is doing his best.

*************************
I noticed countless eyes following me. They belonged to shop-keeps closing up for the night, the homeless watching me from their makeshift beds, call girls pretending to wait for their next tricks on the corners, but all the while, wary of my every move. I didn’t belong here and they knew it. I could feel Les Foncés all around me, too, watching me from behind the tombs of the cemeteries, waiting for me around the corners of St. Louis Cathedral. With each breeze that floated off the Mississippi, I could feel their breath on my neck.”
The city of New Orleans beckons Leigh Benoit into its mysterious arms in this sequel to the popular Dark Bayou. She continues with her mission to learn the art of the Traiteur while ancient beings threaten to tip the balance to the dark side. With the clock ticking, it’s a race to find a cursed antique during Mardi Gras–a celebration that is about to become the Dark Carnival.

*************************
id you know that if you forget to pay a speeding ticket you WILL get arrested–in front of your kids, the neighbors–the dog–and anyone else who happens to be there? True story. And the thing is, Stacey Turis has a million of them, and she imparts these and other nuggets of wisdom to offer others suffering from ADHD some hope in knowing that they are not alone.
A belly-laugh inducing romp through a life so convoluted and chaotic you know it has to be true, Stacey Turis’s debut gives a voice to the genius yet tormented souls suffering from giftedness, ADHD, or a combination of both (a condition known as twice-exceptional) who are too afraid to speak.
Chronicling her life journey from a state of self-loathing to one of self-acceptance, the stories flow timelessly, always incorporating the resulting lessons and reflections gleaned from each adventure. Including both the tragic, stomach churning details of a horrifically abusive time in her childhood to comic adventures such as deciding to dye her hair plum the day before an important presentation to a bank only to have it turn out purple, her life has never suffered from a dull moment. Though she often thought Karma was the reason she found herself in so many “pickles,” a friend explained to her that when you put yourself out in the world more than anyone else, it’s really just a matter of statistics. Lucky for Turis and the rest of us, putting herself out there all these years allows us all to look at life through her pair of less-struggle-more-sass glasses.
With over three hundred million people suffering from ADHD worldwide and experiencing many of the same debilitating symptoms, Turis’ goal is to share her experiences so that others afflicted can rid themselves of the shame of hiding their behavior. A rip-roaring and bracingly honest look at a twice-exceptional life, Here’s to Not Catching Our Hair on Fire: An Absent-Minded Tale of Life with Giftedness and Attention Deficit–Oh Look! A Chicken! turns the rational on its head in a rollicking depiction of a life that seems to be constantly going off the rails.
