Rocket Fuel Pee #2
Curse of the Potency
What if an entire business relies solely on one man’s pee?
In deepest, trendiest London a company by the name of Leading Edge Solar Ray Research Materials Ltd has just hired a new employee.
But this is no ordinary company, and no ordinary employee.
The employee is Dave Smith, an infamous slob with a mutation that threatens to destroy every toilet in Britain.
The company has the answer, a revolutionary new material called Super-Strong-Poly-Mega-Dega-Carbon-Alloy, the only stuff on earth that can withstand Dave’s super-corrosive urine. What’s more, they believe his wondrously potent excretion can unlock the super-materials of the future.
All they ask is Dave reside in their basement and pee where they tell him to pee.
All Dave asks is they treat him like a human being and figure out what the hell has happened to him.
Sounds like a match made in heaven, right?
Wrong.
Personalities always get in the way. As does science. And one should never ignore the small print.
Curse of the Potency is the riveting follow up to Man of Ruin, and the second book in the Rocket Fuel Pee trilogy, a brand new dark comedy sci-fi series.

About the author
Oliver Franks
5 books5 followersI write a unique blend of science fiction, magic realism, dark comedy and fantastical tales – what might be called ‘speculative mis-adventure’. Embracing the magic of the strange, the dangerous and the vaguely possible, my mission is to enthrall and challenge readers with darkly comic entertainment whilst telling stories with a point, even if that point isn't always immediately obvious. Otherwise, indeed, what is the point?

This book in the series is not as funny as the first book, but it is also not one to skip.
Let me explain before you decide to run away.
This is a great series! The second book is much darker--you get that corporate overlords vibe as you read, and you genuinely feel sorry for Dave.
As I've said before, this series is one of the most original stories I have ever read, and I am glad I did!
Now, to get my hands on the last book of the trilogy!
