On October 29th in the year of the Lord 2024, a new novel will grace the world. Who the Fuck is Rocky Phantasmic?! has finished gestating, and the worldâs book womb is ready to birth this bastard child of horror and comedy. The title may be a grammatical nightmare while promoting and talking about the book, but youâre in for the ride of the year as an ensemble of unlikely characters shoot for the MacGuffin to end all Macguffins.
But who the fuck is in this book?
Meet Dave, a queer indie writer who is definitely not a self-insert from the author no matter what anyone says. What does he know about mobsters and demons and undead mobsters in cahoots with demons? Even with his overactive imagination, heâs not ready for whatâs coming.
Daveâs would-be partner in crime shouldâve been canceled comedian Cliff Quinten, but they seemed to have gotten their wires crossed. Cliffâs on a mission of his own to save his floundering career, but heâs waylaid by his own personal horror movie playing out as he attempts to make his big comeback tourâonly donât call it a fucking comeback tour.
Daveâs polyamorous wife Heather is involved in all this nonsense too, though not by choice. All she wanted was to get laid and get home to her husband and daughter, but Heatherâs plans are dashed by a priest whoâs hunting her husband. Now she finds herself at the end of a chain, waiting for her opportunity to spring into actual and save her husband.
Father Stephen is the broken priest, a man with a demon in his head. He sees beyond the veil. Demons encircle his entire being, and the only way to stop them and save the world is to kill Dave before the one Father Stephen calls The Enemy can get him.
Heâs not the only one after Dave. The Undead Boss has sent a pair of his cronies after him to make good on a deal heâs made with a demon called He Who Walks Above. With the help of a supervillain from the old country, theyâre willing to get their hands dirty to get them on Dave. Do demons and low-level mob operations coexist? What kind of evil synergy is this?!
Through all this is a question on everyoneâs lips: Who the Fuck is Rocky Phantasmic?!
Who the Fuck is Rocky Phantasmic?! drops hard on Tuesday 10/29, and will be available in paperback and ebook through Amazon, Barnes & Noble, Kobo Plus, Smashwords, Apple Books, or wherever you can find good books. Itâs now available for preorders.
