Skating on the Edge
From a brilliant new voice in contemporary fiction comes a hilarious, off-beat fantasy of adventure and chain-smoking
A disenchanted spell-caster, a feeding-disordered and phobic vampire with a penchant for television talk shows, an inept shape-shifter, a militaristic saint, and a surferesque Viking are aligned in a mission to find the answer to unanswerable questions, drink coffee, and slaughter vaguely annoying bystanders. In the course of their journey, they encounter a variety of Famous Dead Guys, Mythic Creatures, and Horrendous Jokes. Under the dominion of a patriarchal authority figure, they stumble blindly through layers of past, present, and future, only to find that No One will help them.< /p>
