Edger Lives
by David Beem
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
GENRE: Comedy, Action/Adventure
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
BLURB:
Our dork of destiny rides again!
Edger
is falling for Mary, his bodyguard, kick-ass spy, and cover wife. But she’s so
hopelessly out of his league, it’s clear someone’s going to get hurt. Less
clear? That someone may be the Prime Minister of Australia.
When
Mary confesses her desire to kill the world leader whose assassination Edger’s
supposed to prevent, Edger’s superpowers pick the worst time to stop working.
Without a fully functional psychic superhero, their team of spies can no longer
order him to probe Mary’s mind for ill intent. The stage is set for a
confrontation that threatens to strip a defenseless Edger of his loyal
protector just when he needs her most.
Return
to the Collective Unconscious, this time with Listerine-chugging stoners,
Hollyweirdos, commie-alien-kung fu robots, one space gorilla-unicorn, and an
exceedingly lovesick Vladimir Putin.
Mind your fingers and toes on page 270. Those skydiving
mind-control monkeys have been known to bite!

EXCERPT TWO:
All
the trucks are in the air.
“Run!”
Dad yells, peering upward, one leg bent, hands raised toward the airborne fleet
rocketing toward space.
My
knees buckle, and the action serves to reboot my body mechanics. I hobble off
as fast as I can manage, making it three steps before the shock force of an
explosion slams me from behind. My ears pop. My feet leave the ground. Shoulder
raking across concrete, I skid to stop. More explosions ring out behind me. I
cover my head.
Something
wet drops from my brow. I prop myself up on one elbow, wince, collapse onto my
side. My arm is a mass of gravel and scrapes. I touch my finger to the inside
of my cheek—blood. A spike-like blast erupts, so loud it glows in my ears, a
pure white sound. The movie reel of life sputters and jams. The air is
incinerator hot. Someone’s moaning. It takes me a second before I realize it’s
me. I’m on my side.
The
air shimmers. Another explosion erupts from the far side of the parking lot,
the flash briefly outlining Dad and Nostradamus. Dad falls backward.
Nostradamus faces me, his head cocked sideways. His arm makes another throwing
motion. High above, a tiny Peterbilt is bearing down on me like a meteorite. I
struggle to get to my feet, twist my ankle, fall. The rising trill of the
incoming missile hollows my throat. This is it. I’m going to die.

David ~ Good morning! Welcome back! It is so great to have you here again! Congrats on your new book and good luck on the book tour! :)
ReplyDeleteThank you, Ally! And thank you for having me back! :)
DeleteThanks for hosting!
ReplyDeleteThank you so much for taking time to bring to our attention another great read. I enjoy these tours and finding out about many terrific books.
ReplyDeleteThank you for following the tour, James.
DeleteSounds like a great read.
ReplyDeleteThank you, Rita!
DeleteHappy Friday, thanks for sharing the great post!
ReplyDeleteThank you for stopping by today, Victoria!
DeleteHappy Friday! Do you have any reading or writing plans for the weekend? If reading, what are some of your favorite genres?
ReplyDeleteHi, Bea. Happy weekend to you! Yeah, we're going to see Shazam, and then lunch at our favorite Indian place. Right now I'm reading a (sci-fi) book by Charles Millhouse called Origin Expedition, and I recently finished a book by Corrina Lawson called The Curse of the Brimstone Contract, a steampunk magical murder mystery. No favorite genres, you?
DeleteAfter reading the excerpt, I'm still thinking. Is the Nostradamus THE Nostradamus? As in, there was some kind of time machine going on?
ReplyDeleteHi, Dianna. Yes, it's THE Nostradamus, but he's immortal. (No time travel.) Actually, his reveal in this excerpt is a bit of a spoiler for those following the series. In book 1, Nostradamus is simply the name of the cabal the heroes are battling. Thank you for your question!
DeleteThank you, Bridgett.
