Three Years with the Rat
Author: Jay Hosking
Publisher: Macmillan
ISBN: 1250116317
Category : Fiction
Languages : en
Pages : 290
Book Description
“Three Years with the Rat is a mind-warping thriller that will make you question reality as you conceive of it. One of the most assured and haunting debuts I’ve read in recent memory.” —Blake Crouch, author of Dark Matter After several years of drifting between school and go-nowhere jobs, a young man is drawn back into the big city of his youth. The magnet is his beloved older sister, Grace: always smart and charismatic even when she was rebelling, and always his hero. Now she is a promising graduate student in psychophysics and the center of a group of friends who take “Little Brother” into their fold, where he finds camaraderie, romance, and even a decent job. But it soon becomes clear that things are not well with Grace. Always acerbic, she now veers into sudden rages that are increasingly directed at her adoring boyfriend, John, who is also her fellow researcher. When Grace disappears, and John shortly thereafter, the narrator makes an astonishing discovery in their apartment: a box big enough to crawl inside, a lab rat, and a note that says This is the only way back for us. Soon he embarks on a mission to discover the truth, a pursuit that forces him to question time and space itself, and ultimately toward a perilous confrontation at the very limits of imagination. This kinetic novel catapults the classic noir plot of a woman gone missing into the twenty-first-century city, where so-called reality crashes into speculative science. Jay Hosking's Three Years with the Rat is simultaneously a mind-twisting mystery that plays with the very nature of time and the story of a young man who must face the dangerously destructive forces we all carry within ourselves.

Languages : en
Pages : 339
Book Description
Had your rabies shots yet? The rats are loose! Twenty-four 'rat' themed short stories, and the first book in a three-book collection, The Creature Tales. Many of the stories here are traditional blood and gore filled horror, but several venture slightly into the realms of science fiction and the supernatural. Within this collection, the reader will find every rat incarnation imaginable, from the super strong and ultra intelligent to bloodthirsty and seemingly immortal. While every story has been written to stand alone, several are loosely inter-connected with an ongoing reference to the future. Among the stories are: A farmer's imaginative though barbaric attempt to solve his rat problem backfires in the worst possible way. A young boy's efforts to repay the kindness of his childhood rodent friends has consequences that will change the course of history. A vicious ghostly rat falls victim to karma. A centuries-old rat looks back on how it became the seemingly immortal creature it is. Some escaped convicts realise too late they've chosen the wrong couple to terrorise when their rodent pets see their own comfy lives threatened. A grim fate awaits those who take shelter in an abandoned house. A country squire finds himself on the receiving end of his sporting cruelty. These are just some of the stories in this extensive collection, so brace yourselves for ... A Mischief of Little Horrors. *A further two books in this three-book collection, Canine Tales and Six, Eight & Many Legged Tales, are scheduled for early 2019 ...
