Book Description

THE LOCATION: Undisclosed

THE THREAT: UnconFirmed

(but scary as hell)

OUR ONLY HOPE: Two high school dropouts who really have better things to do with their time than prevent the apocalypse

Its street name is Soy Sauce - a drug that lets its users drift across time and dimensions. But sometimes, those who come back bring something with them. Suddenly, a silent otherworldly invasion is underway, and mankind needs a hero. What it gets instead is John and David, a pair of dropouts who can barely hold down jobs. Can these two stop the oncoming horror in time to save humanity? No. No, they can′t ...

"Wong is like a mash-up of Douglas Adams and Stephen King ... ′page-turner′ is an understatement." 
Don Coscarelli, Director, PHANTASM I-IV, BUBBA HO-TEP

"compelling-against-all-odds ... laugh-out-loud 
funny" KIRKUS REVIEWS

"the book′s smart take on fear manages to tap into 
readers′ existential dread on one page, then have them laughing the next." PUBLISHERS WEEKLY
