A light-hearted climate change adventure story about an insurance salesman at the end of the world.

After a thirty-year rationing plan called “The Effort” the prime minister declares VC Day: “Victory over the Climate”. But chronically depressed insurance salesman Jeremy Chutter knows it’s all hot air. The end is nigh — and he can’t wait!

Then Jeremy’s world gets turned upside-down…

What’s a grown man to do, living in the shadow of one of the nation’s most famous entertainers? Run away from home, of course.

Stefan Mackechnie is the son of Delonia Mackechnie, famous folk-singer and variety show host. When Stefan writes a letter out of frustration to his dead father, he receives an unexpected reply, a message that leads him on a journey across the ocean to a timeless city where he’ll face love, oblivion, and eternity.

Hugh and Simon weren’t exactly made for each other, more like… manufactured.

Hugh Willard and Simon Williams couldn’t be less alike. They’ve been friends since childhood, but five years ago their differences led to a fight and they haven’t spoken since. But Hugh has discovered that he and Simon might be clones. Worse, they were never meant to be born, and someone wants them dead.

Set in the near future, The Willies tells the story of two people coming to grips with their relationship and identities while on the run. This takes place against a backdrop of bizarre events that poke fun at the current debate over bioengineering — starting with a panda blowing up and finishing with a showdown that threatens human life itself.
