Synopsis:

Aliens from the planet Mortice have discovered a way to extract mental energy from Earth's semi-intelligent inhabitants, transforming our world into a cosmic pit-stop for interplanetary travelers. Amidst this chaos, we meet BubbaGod to the Jews and Christianswho, despite his divine status, has developed an insatiable addiction to Peruvian ceviche.

Our protagonist, Miguel, a humble chef abducted to heaven to serve Bubba's culinary cravings, finds himself caught in a cosmic web of absurdity. Threatened with an eternity in heaven's kitchen, Miguel joins forces with Sho-Shota, a Mortician deity turned nymphomaniac, in a wild escapade across the galaxy. As they shag their way through the stars, hijack spaceships, and explore alien reproductive habits, the pair must deal with the Gonaddians, big-balled braniacs bent on keeping the universe's order intact.

Alongside Miguel and Sho-Shota, you'll meet Jesus, who is embroiled in a scandalous celestial affair, and an albino gorilla who just so happens to be the President of Earth.

Autorenporträt

Finn here. I write short stories and novels. Here's what I usually say in a bio: A tech entrepreneur with a passion for Latin American fiction, who didn't make it big but did make it bust, I grew up on a farm but never sang "Oh What a Beautiful Morning" while skipping through fields of waving grain. A budding entrepreneur, I risked life and limb to become an insignificant drug smuggler at the age of eighteen to help finance an education in Latin American literature, but had to get serious when my wife gave me three wonderful gifts (our children). Scared of starving kids, I began studying engineering and eventually started my own telecom company. It died, but I didn't. That's pretty stuffy, so let me make it quick: Shit happens! My first novel is God Is A Mortician, which I call punk sci-fi, Then there's are two memoir series called Fun Loving Finn and Finn on the Farm. Both are creative nonfiction (fancy name for memoir with a twist). If you care, my academic background includes a B.A. and an M.A. in Latin American Studies from Amherst College and UT-Austin, respectively, and an M.S. in Electrical Engineering from the University of Kansas, leading me to become a multilingual techie in my professional life before embarking on my career as an author. My short stories have been published in J Journal, Calliope Literary Journal, Jokes Review, cc&d, and nagarimagazine.com, the latter in Spanish. My irreverent outlook and profane wit sometimes cause members of my own family to act like they don't know me, but that probably happens to you, too, when you tell a bad joke or cut a fart in a crowded restaurant.
