Aliens in New Florida (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781960247605)

Two years ago in a post-apocalyptic Florida, Mick's village was raided, and she's been searching for her lost girlfriend ever since. Her only clue is a note stuck to her machete: Meet me at The Kingdom. But The Kingdom isn't easy to find, especially in a decrepit old solar-powered van.

On her journey, she meets Rawr, local cryptid, who not only knows where The Kingdom is, but will pay Mick to take them there to honor the dying wish of an old friend. An old friend who claims to be an omniscient alien and cheerfully tells Mick the exact circumstances of her own impending death.

Along the way, they get sacrificed by an alien cult; nearly collected by a homicidal diorama artisan; trapped in a liminal Waffle House; lost in the ruins of a theme park water ride; and chased by Putnam, mafia godmother and alien hunter.

All this cannot keep them from falling a little in love, but Rawr's a walking biohazard, and Mick's closer than ever to reuniting with her lost lover. But when Mick discovers the truth behind the raid, her worldview is blasted into the cosmos and she must fight her own fate to save Rawr.
