It’s 1990, and Leo Sanford has just been expelled from Central Baptist University for creating an explicit topiary of the female figure using a push mower on the front lawn of the quad.
After a humiliating ride home, Leo opts for an entry-level job at All the Hits Video Rental. During an especially dull shift, Leo finds an alien portal opening in the adult section of the video store, just behind the hanging beads. Defending himself with only a pair of rollerblades, he enters an alternate universe at war. To get back home, Leo must promise to act as a messenger between the worlds, and return again with a pack of Lucky Strikes and a box of Lemonheads.

Scott Boss has a way of telling stories that always draws me in. I don’t normally gravitate to Sci-Fi books, but Scott is such a great writer than he could write the ingredient list on a cereal box and he’d made it interesting. I highly recommend this to anyone who wants a gripping story that isn’t your cookie cutter novel. Now… where can I find some Oreo plants?
