Morty Shallman's War and Sex is the provocative, transgressive, and audaciously irreverent follow-up to his #1 Best-selling Absurdist Novel, The Tyranny of Desire, hailed as "a comedic masterpiece" by Readers' Favorite and as a "ribald and incisive provocation" by Booklife.
Part raunchy action comedy, part cunning political thriller, and part twisted romance, War and Sex tells the story of Captain Rod Solo, a Top Gun naval aviator turned ace CIA drone pilot with a problem: He can't get it up when he's trying to make love to his gorgeous wife, Lulu, and can't get it down when he's doing his job-blowing up terrorists via remote control for love of God and country.
When Rod's peculiar form of PTSD (post-traumatic sex disorder) leads to tragedy, he must trade the safety of his cubicle in Langley for the mean streets of Karachi-and the even meaner streets of Washington, D.C.-to seek and destroy his targets with his bare hands... or die trying.
What follows is a darkly satirical skewering of American military misadventures and homeland insecurity in the post-9/11 era; a "Catch-22 for the 21st Century" that explores the absurd and often paradoxical dilemmas at the heart of America's "forever wars" abroad, and uncivil wars at home.

This soulful book of personal poetry brought me into the past and into the present---and into my heart.
Read the first book and this 2nd one did not disappoint! Loved every chapter. More please!

Received an Advanced Reader Copy from a friend. I am an avid true crime reader and upon completion I question if the author is credible. The timeline does not add up for his age and the times of his alleged involvement in organized crime. Some of the things in the book he is alleged to have said and done I remember almost word for word from movies I had previously watched. He literally stole a scene from the movie the accountant with Ben Affleck and said that he did it. I did a little research after completing the book and learned that this author was also claiming in 2010 that he was a long time member of the Bloods Gang. That coupled with the above leads me to believe that it is nothing more than fantasy. Do not waste your time or money

What a difficult story to tell. I appreciate the honesty and vulnerability. Definitely made me think.
