Aliens have hatched a rockstar. Brain extractions, falling body parts, and blood-vessel explosions have become the norm.
Alex’s dream job has turned into a nightmare. What should she do?
It’s the 1990s. Alex arrives to work at Acht Records, her improbable blonde hair streaked stress magenta and anger black. Her first duty is to wipe blood off her boss’s walls. It goes downhill from there.
Rock Gods & Messy Monsters is a humorous story about life inside a record company. Yet underneath and between the lines of satire and absurdism, the book is a cautionary tale.
It reminds us that dreams can be illusions.
Discovering who we really are takes courage and a commitment to self-love.
Reviewers have called Rock Gods & Messy Monsters “SNL meets Wizard of Oz meets Matrix meets Succession,” “The Hitchhiker’s Guide to the Music Industry” and “Theodor Adorno filtered through the whimsy and humor of writers like Terry Pratchett and Kurt Vonnegut”.
