Warkin Posted: 21 Oct 2011 06:30 AM PDT Warkin by Geddy Gibson For mature audiences only. This is only temporary. Jim Crayson pulls the work vest over his head. As his first shift begins at the backwoods convenience store he realizes things weren’t supposed to turn out like this. Sick of teaching logic at Midwestern colleges, Jim had taken his chances at starting over in Northern Florida. But that was many months and many resumes ago. For now he just needs cash while he keeps looking for something permanent. The possibilities seem endless. Jim feels certain that any day now his degrees and experience will land him writing work–or at least a job with benefits. Maybe his book will finally get published. For mature audiences only. And then there’s that shot he has at winning thousands on a quiz show. But it’s no picnic dealing with this job and the people it involves. Will Jim watch his hopes dissolve into the seedy, violence-prone world he encounters at the store? Could his last sight be a customer pointing a gun at his head? Geddy Gibson’s bleakly comic novel is an unflinching portrayal of the real prospects for many who attempt to change careers and pursue their dreams. Warkin takes an insightful and often witty look at being overeducated and underemployed.

A Dancing Bear Posted: 21 Oct 2011 06:15 AM PDT A Dancing Bear by David Free What if getting the girl meant becoming a terrorist wet boy? On an unnamed university campus late in the 20th century, a young man named Fenton Bland joins a society of student Maoists in order to get near the girl he loves. But the girl turns out to belong to the chief Maoist – the uncouth, fat, and possibly dangerous Gus. And the Maoists turn out to harbour alarming aspirations in the field of revolutionary terror. And so Fenton, wearing a forcibly grown beard, finds himself propelled into a bizarre covert world of death lists, backyard bomb labs, untraceable handguns, and attempted wet jobs of distinctly varying quality – a world in which he must choose between losing the girl forever or else participating – perhaps very soon – in a successful terrorist atrocity. Along the way he must contend with a motley cast of characters, few of whom enjoy optimal grips on reality.
