Paperback. Condition: Very Good. Henry Gallagher is a failure. Born into a broken family, now a young alcoholic struggling with mental illness, Henry is successful at one thing: destroying his life. While spending his time and waning finances at local bars and on any woman who will show him affection, Henry reflects on his past, seeing no future than the one he believes has been preordained for him. From a funeral in Ireland, to a chance meeting with a German millionaire, to a booze-soaked and bloody version of Last Tango in Paris, Henry's life is both darkly humorous and unapologetically human. Accompanied by stories of other down and out characters fighting their way through the underbelly of society, Jack Moody's debut collection poses Henry's greatest question: Do we end up where we do purely because of the choices we've made, or are some of us simply doomed at birth to fail.…

Paperback. Condition: Very Good. In the heart of an empty city, humanity's last echo lingers. The last living human wanders through a metropolis frozen in time. The streets still hum with electricity, food and drink remain fresh, and forest fauna roam the streets without worry. By day, it's a surreal paradise. But at night, shadows emerge from the darkness, slaughtering any creature foolish enough to remain in the open, stacking the corpses into towering pyres set ablaze as offerings to a greater eldritch being. Desperation drives him into the nearby woods to seek refuge. Yet, something else calls the green expanse home. Something equally mysterious. In order to survive, he'll have to confront the unknown and unravel the mysteries of a dying world. Only then will he be ready to face that which frightens him most. For no matter where he hides, an unseen voice beckons: Come home, little prince. Come home to me. Robinson Crusoe in a Lovecraftian landscape, The King of Everything contends with the dualities of man and animal, nature and civilization, loneliness and community, life and death, and the vital shade of gray found at the center of it all.…
