Sunny Key West sets the stage for writer/professor G. J. Dürrschmidt to launch a bucket-list cross-country road trip in his 1970 Volkswagen bus. As only the magic of Key West could possibly make happen, the bus takes on the persona of Vinnie van Go, who decides to try his hand at poetry. “If the old man can write,” says Vinnie, “then I sure as hell can too!” This book is a serendipitous collection of Key West–inspired thoughts and observations made through the eyes and poetry of a vintage VW love bus. It’s all about love. It reveals the strong and special bond that has grown between man and machine. Both must face the reality of aging and its role as they prepare to hit the road. Come climb aboard. Laugh, cry, and be shocked together with them. Though mostly mild, Vinnie’s poems can be somewhat naughty. Reader, beware!

THE SYMPHONY BEGINS Midway through the dull, grey journey of college, Victor Roland, a high-functioning autistic, is dragged into his own world of sword and steam. Here, the year is 1884, by Imperial reckoning. In the shadows of its cathedrals, a series of grisly murders sweep the metropolis of Holy Gothica. Soon after his descent, Victor learns of portals in televisions, where daemons lurk in an abyss shrouded in fog, and emerge when blackouts wrack the city. But when he discovers that his friends from “reality” — Charles Garner, a middle-aged “connoisseur of cannabis,” and, Beatrice Morrison, a biker with a goth streak — are trapped in here, Victor resolves to find them, lest they wind up kidnapped by, “the Dollmaker,” and slaughtered behind the screens. Fortunately, Victor awakens to the power of Geist — to summon a living facet of his own psyche, to battle the evil born of everyone’s souls. A power that earns him a chance to find his dear friends, and perhaps even a way home … Whimsical, humorous yet terrifying, Geist: Prelude will hold readers long into the night and pave the road for a series of dark fantasy and gothic dystopia.
