Book excerpt: No Woman Could Change His Ways, Only His Diaper... When Marrowburg's most fearsome gangster, Kid Phoenix, gets gunned down behind Stripping Through History (a titty bar that combines nudity with feminist history), there is a silver lining: he gets a second chance at life. Coming back as Baby Jaydon, whose perpetual five o'clock shadow and penchant for swearing aren't going to win him any friends on the playground, he's adopted by a well-to-do family and goes to live in the suburbs with no memory of his former life. But after a chance run-in with his ex-henchman, Ram Bountybar, Baby Jaydon begins to recall fragments of his former underworld life. He forsakes his quiet existence of building blocks and afternoon naps to find out who put five slugs in his back behind Stripping Through History. With the help of Ram and Kid's former moll, Ruby Redd, who's now a nun, Baby Jaydon goes on a dangerous journey through Marrowburg's twisted underworld to find out who killed him. Blood and formula flow as Baby Jaydon, Ram, and Ruby Redd encounter onion and chive-scented mobsters, rabid ocelots, and the world's angriest travel agent.

Life with Polo is like living with a ticking time bomb, and it doesn’t take her long to realize that she’s caught up in a situation that may kill her if she doesn’t find a way out in time. When she finds real love with the unlikeliest person, she is hopeful that her luck will change. Unfortunately, that’s not at all the case. Kato awakes from his coma and Polo is eager to find out the details of what exactly happened the night that his brother was killed. Being able to claim Star was the trophy he was seeking, but the nagging in his mind about what really happened to Mink just won’t go away. When he forces Star to assist Kato in gaining back his memory, he unknowingly lays the foundation for an unforeseen romance that just may be the end of them all. Now awake, Kato’s struggle to fully recover from the injury that nearly claimed his life becomes the least of his worries. Once he receives news from a reliable source that the Disciples have a betrayer in the midst, he wants nothing more than to get to the bottom of it and take out revenge on the person whose loyalty is in question. After finding out that it may be his own best friend, Polo, behind it all, he finds himself on the brink of initiating an all-out war in the streets. To make matters worse, his growing feelings for Star only further complicate the situation when he suspects that she’s being abused.

Book excerpt: In this dead-on satire of online obsessions, a novelist with writer’s block finds a new—and very lucrative—stream of income in a virtual world that appears to give him everything he lacks in the real world. When Frank Dixon, a frustrated writer who has seen his career crash and burn, decides to dabble in online poker, he discovers he has a knack for winning. In this newfound realm, populated by alluring characters—each of them elusive, mysterious, and glamorous—he becomes a smash success: popular, rich, and loved. Going by the name Chip Zero, he sees his fortunes and romantic liaisons thrive in cyberspace while he remains blind to the fact that his real life is sinking. His online success, however, does not come without complications, as he comes to realize that his “virtual” friends and lovers are, in fact, very real, and one rival player is not at all happy that Mr. Zero has taken all his money. Heller’s cautionary tale is continually surprising and startlingly real, a tour de force of satirical storytelling in the vein of Jonathan Tropper and Sam Lipsyte.
