Nectar
Two professional drifters, Nick Du Monde and Haggard Burns, are on the lam from anything resembling gainful employment. With a carte blanche credit line (drawn on fraudulent documents) the duo has fled life’s traditional trappings and now drifts from continent to continent in their quest for the purest elixir on earth—the Nectar. So far their three year safari has delivered them to some premium firewaters. From libations laced with thermal tubeworms to spirits distilled with reptilian scales. But have any of them been the true Nectar? In their insatiable haste to rest that question, they forge onward despite mental and physical capacities that have been withered by epicurean excess. Ultimately, they awake after a drunken blackout only to discover they’ve somehow arrived at a small coastal village saturated with an entire subculture of roving bohemians just like them. It is here with these like-minded vagabundos and amid this crease of terra incognita that Nectars of other persuasions threaten to derail their intoxicating safari, or, at least, completely redefine it.

Silly and Really Boring!
I thoroughly enjoyed this author's first two books. They were both fun, light reads. But I got halfway through this one and realized I was bored to death. This Book reminds me of Fear and Loathing in Las Vegas but poorly done. By the middle of the book there was still no storyline, just anecdotes about how messed up these two people were on drugs and alcohol. One of the few books in my life I've simply stopped reading. Absolutely awful.

If you have nothing to do and are considering drug/alcohol abuse..
Then you should read this Garbage. Just absolute trash. Authors has a way with words but the story was trash. A pointless “adventure”. I kept reading because I thought it might get a point somewhere along the lines but it didn’t.

Quirky about the meanderings of a wanderer.
This is not my kind of book...A lot of psychobabble.not much of a storyline . Good thing about the book was that you could put it down.
