<p>The narrator and a select team of real-life friends, eminent Spanish philosopher, Ignacio Gomez de Liaño, German shamanic artist/poet, Carlfriedrich Claus, Dada erudite, Parisian Marc Dachy and the sophisticated American novelist, Wal­ter Abish, along with assorted cartoon figures, Tintin and Captain Haddock, investigate bizarre sightings of historic Maya personages and the apparition of ghostly Maya pyramids in the streets of Manhattan. They discover that the bloodcurdling Dragon Queen and her marauding, illegitimate, campy son and S&M mate, Smoking Rabbit, who introduced bloody "axe" warfare in the Petén Penin­sula in the seventh century, are pushing through the time-boundaries of ancient Tikal. The legends and exploits of the latter are bizarrely paralleled in the marital mayhem of the dysfunctional New York couple, Augustus and his (maternal) spouse. Their risky voyage into the past climaxes with the deadly Maya ball-game, pok-a-tok, in which the captain of the losing team-loses his head! And the narrator's romance with a Maya princess is doomed.</p>

BLACK SCAT BOOKS

<p>Alain Arias-Misson's COMIC BOOK barges into the bookcase like a superhero on steroids. On the surface it's a simple Boy ("Company" operative) chases Girl (gorgeous Corporate Terrorist) story. Set "physically" in comic book format, it leaps relentlessly from one discontinuous window to the next, and becomes labyrinthic and baffling as the characters-discovering their comic book constraints-attempt to throw off these mental shackles and achieve their erotic ends.Prepare to have your preconceived thought balloons punctured by this mind-blowing novel.COMIC BOOK is killer.</p>
