Kumquat - by Jeff Strand - A comedic love story


 5 of 5 Stars     Review copy

When it comes to writing, Jeff Strand has two passions, horror and comedy, and he often combines the two with much success.  With his latest novel, Kumquat, Jeff gives his readers a comedic love story for adults and takes us on the road-trip of a lifetime from Florida to Rhode Island to PhaserCon in San Francisco.

Todd Bryan meets Amy Husk at what is arguably the worst film festival ever and they bond over a fictional sci-fi series "Exit Red."  One thing leads to another and, before you know it, the two are driving from Florida to Rhode Island to get a hot dog from Hunky Dory Dogs.

To say that things go awry would be putting it mildly.  The trip is like Murphy's Law on steroids.  There's a lot I'm not saying here, you really should discover this one for yourself.

Kumquat is one of those books you just don't want to end.  Great characters, crazy fun, and the unexpected at every turn.

The ebook should be available at Amazon.com on July 1st, so set a reminder for yourself to pick it up when it's released.

Highly recommended.
