Book excerpt: Kenneth Ramsayer-loner, self-proclaimed scientist, unapologetic conspiracy theorist, and rock 'n' roll authority. Initially an escape from the asphyxiating judgment of his parents and the incessant torments of bullies, rock 'n' roll became Kenn's entire world. Providing the soundtrack to his life, defining his experiences, and leaving him with an insatiable desire for knowledge, music spoke to him while burning like an addiction; Kenn's rock 'n' roll obsession could never be satisfied-there were simply too many gigs and not enough time-until now. Kenn has discovered the means to access the depth of live shows that had previously eluded him by traveling through time to any gig ever held. Discovering startling revelations in his travels, Kenn will soon find out exactly what he's willing to sacrifice for his obsession. With a burdensome knowledge that propels him to action, Kenn will have to step up in order to prevent the death of rock 'n' roll. Facing threats from evil forces, conspiracies, and even a friend's errant philosophies, Kenn is poised to become the defender of rock 'n' roll. Forced to overcome these perils in 4:4 time, Kenn will have to succeed if he hopes to see his friendship and his precious rock 'n' roll survive. An intelligent satire, The Death of Rock 'n' Roll, The Impossibility of Time Travel and Other Lies cleverly uses the concept of time travel to delve into larger political and societal issues. Exploring the role of art in society, the novel stresses the importance and function of music in our lives. Venturing to subtly describe rock 'n' roll history and how it reflects the human experience, the novel eloquently explains how rock 'n' roll can be a call to arms against the day's primary issues.

An arresting story of personal growth that delves into the timeless catalog of rock, this one-of-a-kind novel shows that lyrics are no substitute for life experience. "A compelling story that sticks in your head like a favorite song." -Paul Carter, author of Is That Thing Diesel? and Don't Tell Mum I Work on the Rigs, She Thinks I'm a Piano Player in a Whorehouse.
Download or read book And Then They Ruined Everything written by Duncan Milne and published by Elm Grove Publishing. This book was released on 2016-06-30 with total page 417 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Having overcome the impossibility of time travel, Kenneth Ramsayer and his best friend exist to relive past rock ’n’ roll gigs. Everything is going well; they’ve become heroes, they’ve discovered love, they had the world by the tail, and then they ruined everything. Based on what is left of their music collections, it appears that rock ’n’ roll died in 1984. Their unassailable knowledge of music, leads the boys to recall that in 1984 an unknown patron made a bootleg recording of a "Replacements" gig. This cassette was recovered and became the live album “The Shit Hits The Fans”. The history of rock ‘n’ roll was forever changed. Now in a viciously evil plot, a thief has absconded with the recording. But what if the death of rock ’n’ roll isn’t connected to the missing cassette? Seeking help from unlikely sources and following fading memories, the boys travel across America in a bid to save rock ’n’ roll. The second novel in "The Death of Rock ’n’ Roll" series, “And Then They Ruined Everything” cleverly uses the concept of time travel in a rock ’n’ roll setting as an examination of choices and the power of art in society.
