Book 1 currently holds a 4+ star rating on Goodreads with 85+ reviews.

"Take The Hitchiker's Guide to the Galaxy, mix in some X-Files, A Beautiful Mind, and the Travelocity Gnome, and you get a recipe to set up this amazing ride through the Deep Estate.... I don't want to spoil a moment of this book. It's phenomenal, and I am so ready to read the next book in the series." - Jules Ford (Goodreads)

With that out of the way...

TAKE BACK THE DEEP ESTATE 

They found Edie inside the Backrooms. That was the easy part.

Getting out alive is another matter entirely.

Time works differently in Liminal Space, and the deeper John Doe goes, the stranger it gets. The endless halls of the Backrooms give way to the Backwoods, a sprawling forest filled with creatures that evolved beyond reality. Leprechauns hunt in packs. Sasquatch stalk through the trees. And how do you even escape a place where outside doesn’t exist?

But while John, Edie, and Carrie the flying pencil are fighting to get back, the last thing anyone expects is that today is the day that the Deep Estate falls.

The Bureau of the Bizarre is in lockdown. The Illuminati are making their move. Their Chupacabra army is ready to invade. For the thousands of humans trapped inside, the mission is no longer about keeping the impossible contained...

It’s about surviving the purge.

Advance Praise

"Take Back The Deep Estate picks up where the first book left off and if you haven't read the first one you definitely should, although it will in no way decrease your enjoyment of this one.

[Spoilers redacted]

This book is gloriously gross with actual laugh out loud moments on almost every page and so much weirdness it might take Bob Dobbs himself to fix your brain! Praise Bob. And there are so many pop culture references you can't help but smile while you're reading.

This is a slam banging, hilarious, blood soaked acid trip in book form and I highly recommend it. I received an ARC of this book from the author. This review is voluntary and is my own personal opinion"
