Book excerpt: Tara Dufrain and Nicola Morgan are eleven year old girls growing up in the '90s, obsessed by Valentine Killshot, a metal screamo band. In particular, they're enamoured by the lead singer, the mysterious yet charismatic Jed Maine who bears the epithet "The Cretin". In Jed's lyrics, he describes a world beyond the Dark Stars that he hopes one day to reach. The girls think it's all just make-believe they share together, until a freak, traumatic incident makes this world very real. As adults, Tara and Nicola try to come to terms with the devastating catastrophe that changed their lives growing up, but to do so they will have to step once more into Jed Maine's world, and confront the man who took everything from them. Dark Hilarity is My Best Friend's Exorcism meets The Never-Ending Story, a fantasy that explores addiction, depression, and the healing power of friendship.
