Six Degrees Of Stupidity (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781999362744)

Underemployed graphic designer Tony Boaks creates a coat of arms for Guy LeSnide, a QC ('like a lawyer, but even more so') with monumental delusions of grandeur. Before settling his bill however, LeSnide's delusions turn to madness and he retreats to the fictional English region of Wester - a dense and murky area only accessible by canal. Unwilling to let madness be an excuse for non-payment, Tony sets out on an epic quest to track him down, narrow-boating into Wester's heart of darkness and taking the spikey unrequited love of his life, LaFlamme, along for the ride. Encounters with a psychotic ventriloquist dummy, a deviant gastrophile and a professional beard-reader are just some of the weirdnesses to expect in this delightfully quirky satire set in a fantastical comic universe.
