Howdy folks, and welcome to your next stop on the Otherworld express.  Make sure your seats are in their upright positions, because you’re about to go on a wild, fun ride.  Almost three months ago, we were all introduced to the wonderful musings of the witty Simon Carr with his story, Our Fathers.  He’s back with a new fantasy delight that you won’t soon forget about.  Check out Goblin Queen.

Simon Carr is absolutely bonkers when it comes to his sense of humor, but his storytelling comes together in ways you’ll appreciate.  Goblin Queen, his latest, is filled with satire, jest, and language that would make the queen blush.  In true Simon Carr fashion, the tale with have you in hysterics page after page—you’ll be convinced that Carr is a long lost Monty Python member.  You’ll also cheer for Ran and her goblin friends as she sets off to put her despicable father in his place.

Rejected as a child, Rangalan found family and friends and a home with the goblin folk of the mountains, Now hunted by the man who rejected her, Rangalan’s father, King Longhorn, there’s nothing Rangalan will not do to protect her friends.

That all sounds very serious, it’s not, its actually all rather very silly, utter nonsense if you ask me, read it if you must but dont say I did not warn you.

Simon Carr excels at outlandish scenarios and laugh-out-loud prose.  It wouldn’t be a far throw to believe we might see some of this humor on TV or set up as a radio play.  For now though, it’s a great time to pick up a book you can have a lot of fun with—one you might have a hard time putting down.  After all, Ran and her buddies are going to bash their way into your heart.  Check out Goblin Queen on Amazon today!

It sure has been a rough year.  Sometimes you need to sit back and laugh (when you can), and we may just have a trip you can pencil in on your Otherworld calendar to help you with that.  Today we’ll be taking a look at a book that’s more lighthearted than most, called Our Fathers.

Simon Carr has the wit of a playwright, and his book, Our Fathers, has the content to match some great comedies.  As much theater script as it is stream-of-consciousness, the book will likely have you in stitches as two priests battle the denizens of hell as they try to invade our world.  Carr certainly doesn’t take things too seriously, and neither do his two protagonists, Fathers O’Malley and O’Riley.  It’s a perfect retreat from darker and more dismal tales.

Bishops Point is about to face its biggest crisis since the distempered badgers attacked, Father O’Riley and Father O’Malley are all that stand in the devil’s way, the forces of hell descend upon the sleepy Irish town en masse, but they were not expecting the good fathers to lead a rebellion against them.

If you’re looking for a delightfully funny read that paints doom and gloom in a brighter light, Simon Carr has got you covered.  Just about all the characters are hilariously incompetent, leading to some off-the-walls buffoonery that you won’t soon forget.  If you’re looking for some light, satirical fare, this is the book for you.  Check out Our Fathers on Amazon today!
