Book Description
On a beautiful day many years after the mass extinction of all human beings, Gub the Cowboy decides to take a ride through the desert. Gub the Cowboy is a Practical Forecaster, a superbeing that is virtually invincible. Nearly all of the inhabitants of Earth (now renamed Practical Planet by the omnipotent overlord Happy Cloud) are. However, when Gub’s ride goes awry and he accidentally unleashes a sentient outhouse with the power to turn Practical Forecasters into hollow, sickeningly dapper shadows of their former selves, he is catapulted into a lifestyle of complete insanity as he simultaneously tries to evade the Portapotty and save his brother from its foul clutches. Making both friends and enemies at every turn, Gub soon finds himself stuck in an adventure that he didn’t really want, surrounded by Forecasters that he doesn’t really know. As the plot thickens and the reach of the Portapotty grows ever longer, Gub is forced to contemplate his own invincibility and wonder if there are things worse than death if one can never die.

Languages : en
Pages : 320
Book Description
From the author of the “clever, creative, and sweetly delicious” (Kirkus Reviews) The Coincidence of Coconut Cake and The Simplicity of Cider comes a novel about an exasperated wife and mother who makes a play to reignite her marriage—and risks everything in a gamble she hopes is a sure bet. When Milwaukee-area wife and mother MJ Boudreaux notices her husband Chris seems more interested in the casino than her, she’s more bothered that she isn’t upset than by her husband’s absence. She picks up poker as a way for them to spend more time together—and reignite their marital flame. Although the game doesn’t give her the quality time with Chris that she’d hoped, MJ finds she has a knack for it. Increasingly unhappy at home, she turns to the felt top of the poker table for comfort. Intoxicated with newfound freedom, MJ begins spending more time at the gambling tables and less with her family, finally carving out for herself a place outside her role of wife and mother. After a string of great wins, MJ finds herself in Vegas, attracting the attention of a certain magnetic poker star. But when she’s forced to choose between her family and her new exciting lifestyle, the stakes may be higher than she thought and MJ will have to play her hand carefully…or risk losing it all.
