A Post-Apocalyptic Jaunt through a Psycho-Sexual Nightmare He awoke with a buzzing in his head, lost at sea... Hidden amidst the fractured remains of a sunken world are the answers the Mariner craves. The ocean is endless and yet he has the tools for such a hunt; an antique slave ship infested with Tasmanian devils, a crate of semi-automatic weapons, and a dreamlike clue formed loosely in his mind. Sinister impulses, however, gnaw at his soul, unravelling his sanity: a proclivity for violence and a hunger for rape. Surrounded by mindless zombies, flesh-eating eels and dangerous cults, this sadomasochist could be humanity’s last chance at unlocking the secrets of the crumbling universe. He’s a pervert, an addict and a monster, but might just hold the key to finding a route home... The Mariner is approximately 120,000 words long and contains scenes of a violent and sexual nature. Recommended only for adults. What Readers Are Saying... "This story is the wildest of rides – fast paced, energetic, unafraid, relentless, exhilarating, disturbing, and smart. I absolutely loved it." C.W. RHODES, Writer & Blogger "A barrage of harrowing imagery and bitter-sweet revelations... Both despicably vile and heart-warmingly comforting." David Chapman, Goodreads Reviewer "A surreal, political, critical and analytical allegory." David Shelton, Amazon UK Review "Made me wince at my species... my sex especially." J. Hooker, Amazon USA Review
