Book excerpt: In this first of the trilogy, Quince Melville, a plucky lad, holds the post of reader in the mills that produce the cloth along the rivers of this New England. His scurrilous adventures with the ladies of the mill and others bring both pleasure and pain and further adventures. A loyalist to King George, he encounters people, places, and points of view that start to test his loyalty to old England. An adroit opportunist, his affaires d’amour stimulate his sensual proclivity as well as his politics. In this first of three volumes, we follow Quince’s transformation from bon vivant adhering to the king’s wishes to a young man guided by the likes of Franklin, Adams, and others to a brave and integral part of the impending revolution.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Quince Melville has survived his introduction to the Revolutionary War, though a limb lighter. In this second book in the trilogy, he has become a hardened warrior capable of vicious soldiering under the harshest conditions; in his continued amorous soldiering, not quite so vicious. As the war nears its conclusion, to the delight of the colonists, a new enemy emerges, crueler than the redcoats and their allies. Things will not become appreciably better. Perhaps it will in the third novel of the trilogy!

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A frustrated geologist studying global warming becomes obsessed with eating rocks after embarking on his first same-sex relationship in Europe. Back home, his young sister is a high-school girl who suddenly starts to ooze honey through her pores, an affliction that attracts hordes of bees as well as her male classmates but ultimately turns her into a social pariah. Meanwhile, their obsessive Pentecostal mother repeatedly calls on the Holy Spirit to rid her family of demons. The siblings are reunited on a ship bound for Europe where they hope to start a new life, but are unaware that their disguised mother is also on board and plotting to win back their souls, with the help of the Virgin Mary. Told in a lush baroque prose, this intense, extravagant magic-realist novel combines elements of fairy tales, horror movies, and romances to create a comic, hallucinatory celebration of excess and sensuality. Barry Webster's first book, The Sound of All Flesh, won the ReLit Award for story collections.

Lauded by critics as a worthy heir to such greats as Silverstein, Seuss, Nash and Lear, Harris's hilarious debut molds wit and wordplay, nonsense and oxymoron, and visual and verbal sleight-of-hand in masterful ways that make you look at the world in a whole new wonderfully upside-down way.

Adding to the fun: Lane Smith, bestselling creator of beloved hits like It's a Book and The Stinky Cheese Man and Other Fairly Stupid Tales, has spectacularly illustrated this extraordinary collection with nearly one hundred pieces of appropriately absurd art. It's a mischievous match made in heaven! "Ridiculous, nonsensical, peculiar, outrageous, possibly deranged--and utterly, totally, absolutely delicious. Read it! Immediately!" --Judith Viorst, bestselling author of Alexander and the Terrible, Horrible, No Good, Very Bad Day
