The Church of the Path of Least Resistance  

 The modern day story of John Wye and Mike Compari, two old friends who travel cross country to rescue a kidnapped child and uncover a clandestine cult with nefarious connections to the US Government.  And the story of  William Wye, Confederate ship’s captain and  savior of the confederate gold in 1865, and his journey into piracy and bordello ownership. The two tales come together in a runaway romp with an eclectic cast of characters and hilarious twists and turns along the way.

2012 Montezuma's Revenge

The world as we know it will come to an end on December 21st, 2012, just like the Mayan calendar predicted.  No, it wasn’t nuclear war or a pandemic of Ebola virus or bird flu. No space aliens came down and ate us and the planet didn’t reverse its magnetic field and flip over in space like a big blue flapjack. We literally farted the world away.

Crypto-zoologist Lucy Poot has discovered the lost treasure of Montezuma II, but she has also discovered Montezuma himself, cryogenically frozen for 500 years.  Now, Montezuma has returned with a mission, to regain his kingdom, restore the Mayan pyramids and save the planet.  But Montezuma’s rise to power is just one more problem for U.S. President Lincoln Caine.  Besides having to build a wall to slow the emigration of cheap labor from the bankrupt U.S. to Mexico, the Imperial Martian colony is in full revolt, nanobot infused pinto beans, designed to spy on Montezuma, have gone rogue, and his dealer just doubled his price for a bag of weed.
