The year is 1896 at Victoria on Vancouver Island in the newly formed colony of British Columbia. An animated, young Thadeus Matoe, a.k.a., "Toadmatoe," comes to Professor Krokonal's house seeking his wisdom about a mysterious gift he has just received from his friend Froglit Brar for his third-month birthday.

With his new 'spy novel', Lily Pad Roll-a sequel to The Trojan Spy-Gaither Stewart reinforces his claim to join the distinguished ranks of authors like Graham Greene and John le Carr who are not only great storytellers, but whose stories burn with a passion for truth and justice. The 'political' thriller plays an important role in today's world, filling a gap left by the near-total demise of investigative journalism. Stewart "tells it like it is"-and not yesterday's news, but the here and now: in this case, the surreptitious spread of Western neo-imperialism across the planet, and in particular its agenda of encirclement and attempted emasculation of the "old enemy," Russia. Stewart marshals his sometimes unruly cast of engaging characters with consummate skill. In that manner, Lily Pad Roll offers a fresh perspective on world events, unraveling layer after layer the deceit concealed in the imposition of "democracy" on a recalcitrant world. Georgia, Syria, Serbia and Iran may not seem to have much in common, but all four are influenced by the same forces. When a young journalist travels through Eastern Europe to investigate America's new military presence among post-communist countries torn between fragile democracy and a shifting geopolitical situation, he himself falls into the murderous sights of US secret services. The author's deep understanding of the region enables him to present the story behind the story, from the perspective of local people, without ever losing sight of breaking events and the reality that the US continues its century-old containment of Russia by any means necessary, even at the risk of a true cataclysmic global war.

This is an adult book with adult humor and some pictures not suitable for children. Now, if you are an adult male and are often referred to as a child, then this book is perfectly fine for you.Note: This book has lots of swear words, seriously! I mean who writes words like Shit and Dick on the front cover of a book and expects it won't be brown bagged in most book stores? We appreciate the gate busters who wrote books like S&*! My Dad Says and Go the F&*# to Sleep and allowed the clean and decent human beings the chance to get real, we all fucking swear. Some more than others, and some with a lot more vigor and conviction.Note, this is not a work of porn, but you'd be hard pressed to classify it differently. We, the writers, are humorists and our genre of choice is adult story telling. We don't live these experiences, at least not the way you think.
