This 188 page dynamo hums along like a 1978 Blue Dodge Eris with a full tank of gas and a radio that only picks up the sound of meditating monks. So, come along for a ride and witness a kidnapping deconstruct, a twisted plot to turn war into a reality style TV program and a typical day at a company with the ill-advised name Object Oriented Payment Solutions, Inc. (or OOPS, Inc. for short). The Unsolvable Circus - a comedy about failure, confusion, lies, gross incompetence and love.

Reader's Comments"It was so gripping, tension-filled, unexpected...Also, the ending couldn't have been better...I feel rather sad though, that my sojourn in Noble and Evermore is over for the time being...it makes me want to go out and get the next book ""Not predictable at all. All the characters are very real, very real.""Sure do love the house, every child's fantasy.""I think Heather and Molly are believable characters and compliment each other. Molly's admiration of Heather is evident, and Heather's appreciation and gratitude for Molly's acceptance of her also comes over.""...creepy...I am assuming that it is Heather and Molly, and wondering how the heck they are going to get out of it...""Loved the costumes, how do you think of this stuff?""I'm 2/3 of the way through it. Frankly, it's not my kind of book, but I want to see how it comes out I've never read this type of literature before.""I need more. I was up until 1:30 with nothing to interrupt me. So much action, who could go to sleep?""...I was taken to another plane...swept away with the beauty of your imagery, and the fearlessness of your imagination ""We should have a time with all readers to get together and talk about the book, the clues along the way, the rooms in the house...""Such an awesome heroine...Oh, I just LOVE Heather...with all her teenage lack of confidence. She is so nice and good and the world needs more like her. Not just in Evermore, but here on earth too.""...And NERVE-WRACKING Will I survive this I can feel my blood pressure go up as I read "" Very exciting, very rich, very suspenseful...although I'm looking forward very much to the next chapters, I am also feeling a little bittersweet about this book ending.""So I sat down and read like 100 pages without even thinking about it today. So much death So much destruction And for some reason that scene with Mistraya and Bayliss was the most brilliant Such a creepy child...with an agenda of her own.""...created a whole world and it's wonderful and magical and scary and delightful...I hope this story will be shared with many, many others. It is so very worthy of that.""It's a
Six-foot CharMane lays on the Voodoo, a stick pokes out an eye, a dead man brings in the Kennedy men, an outhouse secret stops a mob-and those are just the easy parts of Teddy Searle's life. Things really get interesting when he robs his Daddy to trick Swede and Jeff into...Oh, that's telling too much. This Teddy Searle Adventure begins in mid-1950s Arkansas. You meet his Mama, his Daddy, his Uncle Chas, and God-help-us, his Aunt Gail. They comprise a tight family, and all-for-one sort of bunch, except the "one" always seems to be Teddy, with his penchant for getting himself, and the rest of them, in hot, hot water. In spite of himself, Teddy is a lucky bar of wet soap. Surrounded, trapped, or chased, he squirts out of menacing moments at the last second-most of the time, that is. Sometimes he gets help from the most secret of sources; then sometimes he gets help from those darn pigs. Oh, the pigs? You will fall in love with them, just as you will with Louisa, who beats up on Cigarette, to save Teddy, who then gets cross-ways with the villains in the barn, who then...Oh, again, that's telling too much. Teddy tells you his own story, in his own words, stepping outside himself once in a while to share with you his private thoughts. He's funny, charming, goofy, unnerving, frightened, and maybe brilliant. Uncle Chas thinks Teddy is the smartest person he's ever known, though Aunt Gail would certainly give you a second opinion. In "Voodoo Moon", you'll get a sense of where Teddy is going in life-and why. By the way, if you do get a sense where Teddy is going in life, Teddy would appreciate a note from you with your thoughts. He has no idea, which is part of the fun for you and a big part of his own substantial angst. Teddy, after all, is a mystery to himself.

A Deer in the Fog is the debut book of poems published by David O'Sullivan. Written during the peak of the author's personal struggle and existential questioning, the poems within are rooted in life's seeming riddles and many contradictions, and seek to express the pain of coming to terms with them. In so doing, this volume is committed to finding hope in the midst of keenly felt loss and disorientation, and explores the dignity and worth of what it means to be human.
