A press release from Keith Brooke of Infinity Plus:
Just out from infinity plus: three new titles from Jason Erik Lundberg.
NEW in paperback and ebook formats:
Strange Mammals by Jason Erik Lundberg
Strange superheroes and the magic of the quotidian; stories of piercing darkness and quirky, surreal humor; writing from the heart and soul; phantasmagorical journeys into what it means to be human.
“Jason Erik Lundberg’s stories, launched from the real world on a trajectory to the surreal, fuse the idle daydream with the desperate heart. You should read them.” –John Kessel, author of The Baum Plan for Financial Independence and Other Stories
