Friday, 18 October 2013
Brook Cottage Books is thrilled to have Will Macmillan Jones as the Author in the Spotlight. Lets find out a little about Will and his new book The Satnav Of Doom!
Author Bio
Will Macmillan Jones lives in Wales, a
lovely green verdant land with a rich cultural heritage. He does his best to support this heritage by
yelling loud encouragement at the TV when Wales are playing International Rugby
and drinking local beers, although (of course) never to excess.
Having been an accountant for much of
his working life, he writes in a desperate attempt to avoid terminal atrophy of
his brain. A fifty something lover of
blues, rock and jazz he has now achieved a lifetime ambition by extending his
bookcases to fill an entire wall of his home office.
The SatNav of Doom, the fifth in the Banned Underground fantasy series is now released.
The Satnav of Doom
The SatNav of Doom, the fifth in the Banned Underground fantasy series is now released.
Once again, the Dark Lord has a cunning plan. And once again
someone else is going to have to carry it out for him: that's what henchmen are
for, isn't it? To hench? Oh, and to be sent on the risky missions…
Not that this one should be risky. What could be easier than secretly inserting computer spyware into a laptop, using a Banned Underground gig as a diversion? The Tax Office probably does it all the time. But the Tax Office is not normally being chased for an unpaid credit card bill for a huge round of drinks. (That's the politicians. And the henchmen, of course.)
And it isn't just any laptop the Dark Lord wants to spy on either. The Government is struggling to find the way out of the Recession without a road map, and what better aid than a SatNav linked to a computer? If the Dark Lord can get inside information on future economic policy, maybe he can clean up and buy a new Mercedes.
Then there is a mystery: where did the time-travelling SatNav come from in the first place? What if the original owner wants it back?
Magic, mayhem and macro-economic policy collide in the latest surreal instalment of the acclaimed comic fantasy series, The Banned Underground.
