perfidy

I completely forgot to mention, but the other day Ministry Crony and future Hugo winner EDog has a published novel now available for sale. The story in question is The Milkman, which Ian was kind enough to let me read a while back. It is fun, weird and strangely comforting. It's gonzo science fiction in an era that doesn't look overly kindly at gonzo, or science fiction. It tries to answer one of the burning questions of our time: "What’s the deal with aliens and anal probes?" And succeeds in finding an answer. Swordfights, bikers, spaceships and some embarrassing bodily functions. What more could you ask for?

Buy the damn book already, you won't regret it. You can get your greasy mits on a copy here (author's preference) or here or here.
