Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Fat Vinny, the most repulsive eighth-grader in the history of Tomah, is in love. He has chosen as the apple of his eye the wrongest girl he could possibly pursue. Worse than that, he has decided to involve in his sexual awakening the only kid on earth whom he can call "friend." Fat Vinny's weird romance, accompanied by disgusting poetry, drags our hero, seventh-grade Benjamin, into a world of sex where he doesn't want to go. He has enough troubles already. Father Finucan is furious about the "incident" at eight o'clock Mass. Sister Mary Ann is plotting his destruction. He's learning "The Facts of Life" from Wes and Wally, who only know about it from dirty jokes. His "best friend" Koscal is a pain in the ass. And his big sister Peg keeps yelling at him to stay away from Fat Vinny. But every time he thinks he's free, Vinny reels him back in... to the peeping Tom incident and the lost sneaker... to the two break-ins at the priests' house... to the mad chase from the library... all the way to the high-speed climax in old man Geisendorff's stolen Thunderbird. sampling of the provocative and often hilarious essays, sketches and screeds David Benjamin has written weekly for decades. Throughout, David Benjamin embodies a dictum that irreverent essayists, from Voltaire and Twain to Dave Barry and Gail Collins, have faithfully embraced: Nothing is sacred.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: David Benjamin's eponymous character in The Life and Times of the Last Kid Picked grew up in the era - between child labor and Little League - when parental disregard set kids free to devise and play their own games, make their own rules, argue their own disputed calls and roam free from dawn to darkness with absolutely no adult supervision. It was a time, between the end of World War II and the wholesale intrusion of parents into child's play, that Benjamin calls "free-lance childhood." It allowed a timid, bookish and intensely observant kid to explore the outdoors, range for miles on his bicycle, go fishing, go hunting, play baseball, football, soccer, go to the movies with a fellow rascal named Chucky Dutcher and get kicked out of high-school basketball games. This was an interval in American culture that has been overlooked by historians and sociologists alike. It comes to life in vivid and often hilarious microcosm, chronicled by a gifted and often lyrical writer.

Book excerpt: For a kid named Cribbsy, the month of November, 1963, was a private train wreck weeks before JFK undertook his fatal motorcade in Dallas. Cribbsy is tangled in a half-dozen romantic crises. He's hounded by malevolent dwarfs. He's under threat of suspension by a vicious vice-principal. He's at war with his English teacher. Every time he sets foot in the halls, he faces death at the hands of a delusional gridiron gladiator. Cribbsy's trials trace America's loss of innocence. Kennedy has faced down Khrushchev over Cuban missiles, but every kid grows up with the haunting certainty that his life--all life--will end beneath a mushroom cloud. As the nation mourns JFK, Cribbsy's troubles mount. He becomes an unwitting felon. He receives an unexpected overture from the yummiest girl in school. He faces a showdown with his raging nemesis. He knows what happened in the Art Room. And he has a conversation--both crushing and illuminating--with the Playmate of the Month.

Book excerpt: Harry Potter meets James Bond in this story of a twenty-something slacker who discovers that he is descended from a line of magical spies and is thrust into the middle of a secret and epic battle. “Magicians Impossible is a mind-bending page-turner! A brilliant and unique mash-up of spells, myth and mayhem, once it got its claws in me I couldn't put it down. Like a veteran stage magician, Brad Abraham has created a hip thriller that turns convention on its ear with misdirection and mayhem. A must read for enthusiasts of edgy and extreme fiction.” —Don Coscarelli, director of John Dies At The End Twenty-something bartender Jason Bishop’s world is shattered when his estranged father commits suicide, but the greater shock comes when he learns his father was a secret agent in the employ of the Invisible Hand; an ancient society of spies wielding magic in a centuries-spanning war. Now the Golden Dawn—the shadowy cabal of witches and warlocks responsible for Daniel Bishop’s murder, and the death of Jason’s mother years before—have Jason in their sights. His survival will depend on mastering his own dormant magic abilities; provided he makes it through the training. From New York, to Paris, to worlds between worlds, Jason's journey through the realm of magic will be fraught with peril. But with enemies and allies on both sides of this war, whom can he trust? The Invisible Hand, who’ve been more of a family than his own family ever was? The Golden Dawn, who may know the secrets behind his mysterious lineage? For Jason Bishop, only one thing is for certain; the magic he has slowly been mastering is telling him not to trust anybody.

Book excerpt: To unmask a CIA mole, John Wells must resume his old undercover identity as an al Qaeda jihadi—and hope he can survive it—in this cutting-edge novel from the #1 New York Times-bestselling author. It is the most dangerous mission of John Wells’s career. Evidence is mounting that someone high up in the CIA is doing the unthinkable—passing messages to ISIS, alerting them to planned operations. Finding out the mole’s identity without alerting him, however, will be very hard, and to accomplish it, Wells will have to do something he thought he’d left behind forever. He will have to reassume his former identity as an al Qaeda jihadi, get captured, and go undercover to befriend an ISIS prisoner in a secret Bulgarian prison. Many years before, Wells was the only American agent ever to penetrate al Qaeda, but times have changed drastically. The terrorist organizations have multiplied: gotten bigger, crueler, more ambitious and powerful. Wells knows it may well be his death sentence. But there is no one else.

Book excerpt: Josie Dobbs, 16-year-old honor studen and head cheerleader, is everybody's angel - and a devil in disguise. In one fateful moment on her front porch, Josie rips from police chief Jim Otis his precarious grip on career, future - his whole life. Otis, a defrocked Chicago police detective whose foolish romance with an underage hooker landed him in little Hercules, Wisconsin, has no defense against Josie's wiles. Rejected by voters, he's a lame-duck chief when a heist at the Hercules Hardware almost kills one of of Otis' only friends. Suddenly, he has a month, before he leaves office, to solve the biggest crime in Hercules' history. He's too proud to let it slide.Otis' dilemma gets worse when Scott McKinney, a Hercules High School ne'er-do-well who turned his life around in the Marines, comes home to visit his mom and gets fingered for the heist.To save McKinney from a frame-up, Otis has to wade into a swamp of sordid trysts and local rumor-mongers, sorting lies from truth from plain old ugly innuendo.As the investigation ventures beyond Hercules, Chief Otis circles back to his nemesis, the irresistible, irreproachable, irrepressible Josie Dobbs. Josie's power over the town is her brilliance and beauty. Her sexual dominion over boys - and men twice her age - is a secret no man dares reveal because she is, after all, jailbait. Her secrets are safe as long as Hercules worships her, and the men in her life cower in silent fear. She leaves behind a trail of regret and tragedy that disappears as quickly as she can flash her perfect smile and cast her spell. Otis battles his public shame and his private demons - and even gets a little help from his friends- as he finally figures out what really happened, and what Josie did, at Hercules Hardware on that cold night in November.One last horror reminds Jim Otis, too late, of a timeless truth: The cover-up is always worse than the crime.

Book excerpt: "When Vivien Walker left her home in the Mississippi Delta, she swore never to go back, as generations of the women in her family had. But in the spring, nine years to the day since she'd left, that's exactly what happens--Vivien returns, fleeing from a broken marriage and her lost dreams for children. What she hopes to find is solace with "Bootsie," her dear grandmother who raised her, a Walker woman with a knack for making everything all right. But instead she finds that her grandmother has died and that her estranged mother is drifting further away from her memories. Now Vivien is forced into the unexpected role of caretaker, challenging her personal quest to find the girl she herself once was. But for Vivien things change in ways she cannot imagine when a violent storm reveals the remains of a long-dead woman buried near the Walker home, not far from the cypress swamp that is soon to give up its ghosts. Vivien knows there is now only one way to rediscover herself--by uncovering the secrets of her family and breaking the cycle of loss that has haunted her them for generations"--
