Dark Humor Satire

Meet the Evil Legion of Evil: evil yet beautiful space princesses; international lords of hate; one brain in a jar; and the Supreme Dark Lord himself, super-nerd Vox Day. Who would dare attack these frightful folk? The brave men and women of the Puppy Kickers. Safely entrenched in their safe zones, they lash out the only way they can: through proxies, slander, and calling out SWAT teams. Will the Puppies be SWATted once and for all? Or will the Puppy Kickers learn that these puppies bite back?

Neues vom Meister der kurzen Form. Franz Hohler kehrt zu jener Form zurück, die ihn berühmt gemacht hat, nämlich zu kurzen Geschichten, in denen er von einem alltäglichen Leben erzählt, das sich von seinen grotesken, schrecklichen, lustigen, unterhaltsamen und meist abgründigen Seiten zeigt.

Der erste Schelmenroman der Weltliteratur als Hörbuch. Jedes Mal, wenn Lazarillo einen seiner Herren verlässt, weil er es nicht mehr bei ihm aushält, kommt er vom Regen in die Traufe. Ist der erste grausam und geizig, lässt der zweite ihn fast verhungern. Und als er endlich einen findet, der wie ein Edelmann aussieht, stellt sich heraus, dass dieser in Wirklichkeit noch mehr Hunger leidet als er selbst. Also muß Lázaro auch noch für seinen Herren betteln gehen, der sich am Ende aber nicht einmal dankbar erweist.

When a pile of sh!t from space lands near a renowned filmmaker’s set, inspiration strikes. Take a journey up a cosmic mountain of excrement with the director and his film crew as they ascend into madness led only by their own vanity and obsession. This is a nightmare about creation. This is a dream about poop. This is a call to arms against vowels.

Take a space-pirate, inspired by a long-ago Dark Lord. Take a long period of quarantine within the tiny confines of a stolen starship. Now, take 42 busted, broken, or overbearing tropes of fantasy and science fiction. One by one, the Dark Lord twists each into a strange shape and uses it to tell a new story - many of them disgracefully funny, some rather dark, and none of them suitable for vulnerable minds such as yours. Jeff Mach brings tight, interesting, usually satirical, often quite twisted stories, to light a fire in your belly like whiskey, and light a whiskey on fire.

Customer service manager Bob Thomassoulo gets more than he bargained for when he decides to go to Mexico and take revenge on the man who took his job. Accompanying him to Tijuana are his two best friends, Bacho and Doyle, who become entangled in a separate tale about digging for gold.

John Smith is the first person ever sent downstairs due to a mix-up in the paperwork.

Little did the obscure novelist Edward Bulwer-Lytton know in 1830 when he penned that most relished, imitated, and lampooned opening sentence in English literature, "It was a dark and stormy night..." that his words would inspire countless aspiring writers struggling incessantly like boats against the current to emulate his unparalleled style and that his name would grace "The Bulwer-Lytton Contest" honoring his most successful followers. Get it? Abounding in shameless sentences, this audio rendition of the original contest is a hilarious - even perversely instructive - collection of skilled, inept writing. Compiler Scott Rice is a professor of English at San Jose State University and the creator of the contest. The narrators include Marni Webb, Ray Nakamoto, Rachel Songer, and Bob Nathan.

Is there a shopping cart where you were about to park and so now, you have to get out of your car to move it or look for another spot? Is your neighbor driving you nuts again? Did your leisurely drive end up aggravating you because it seems no one knows how to drive? Can't get out of the elevator because everyone is rushing in? The reality is the world has changed. We are more self-absorbed than ever, and technology has caused us to pay less attention to our surroundings, if not each other.

This is a tale with a twist. Unlike what you would hear in other fantasy series, where there's a despotic madman in need of overthrowing where the story follows a group of plucky underdogs, this is a tale focusing on said aforementioned despot as he goes about his business with the express intent of getting a group of plucky rebels to overthrow him. Because what's worse than absolute power? Absolute responsibility.

The TGSPGoSSP is a bit of a comedic acting troupe. Their 2-Part Trilogy mocks our beloved niches in genre fiction. All three books take the usual shots at the usual suspects, both fantasy and sci-fi. If you like dark, deadpan humor and satire such as Monty Python, this title might be your cup of tea.

This is the second novella in the series Donald Trump: Necromancer. It is a work of political parody and therefore protected by the first amendment. This novella follows the progress of vampire folk singer Phil Ochs and the scientist Magnus along with their allies Aiko the were-panda, a druid, and an incredibly strong Good Old Boy named Zeus as they attempt to stop the evilest president in history who also happens to be a necromancer.
