{"product_id":"9781415201862","title":"Apocalypse Now Now","description":"\u003cp\u003eThe main character is Baxter Zevcenko, a 16-year-old kingpin of a schoolyard pornography syndicate. Baxter is razor-sharp, and darkly funny, and the novel dazzles with extremely quotable one-liners.  \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eAll hell breaks loose when Baxter's girlfriend Esmé is kidnapped and he is plunged into Cape Town's supernatural underworld. An unusual tooth found at the scene of Esmé's disappearance leads Baxter to the door of supernatural bounty hunter Jackie Ronin. Together they set out to rescue Esmé and cross paths with a West African glowing man; the notorious Queen of the Nightwalkers; and a bent weapons-chemist named Basson. Baxter's sudden immersion in the paranormal leaves him with little time to realise that he is about to become the final cog in Basson's master plan - one that could create an apocalypse that will obliterate the world. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eApocalypse Now Now is a laugh-a-minute, entertaining and interesting book that will be enjoyed even by readers new to the genre. It's fantastic in every sense of the word, will be published in the United Kingdom and South Africa simultaneously, and marks the beginning of this young writer's promising career.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eOok beskikbaar in Afrikaans\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e'Billed as a mash-up between Neil Gaiman and Quinton Tarantino, this debut novel by Charlie Human draws on his South African background and pours on a crazy, twisted narrative that is brilliantly entertaining.'\u003cbr\u003e- The British Science Fiction Association\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e'It's mad, dark, irreverent and wonderfully twisted in all the right ways.\u003cbr\u003e- Lauren Beukes, author of The Shining Girls\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"book-contributors\"\u003e\n  \u003cp class=\"contributor-item\"\u003e\n    \u003cspan class=\"contributor-role\"\u003eAuthor\u003c\/span\u003e\n    \u003ca href=\"\/search?q=Author+Charlie+Human\" class=\"contributor-link\"\u003eCharlie Human\u003c\/a\u003e\n  \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Charlie Human","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47375774777507,"sku":"9781415201862","price":190.0,"currency_code":"ZAR","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0741\/7836\/3555\/files\/img_9781415201862_ca9a60fe-cde2-40af-a3db-4d769b2e5705.jpg?v=1776531122","url":"https:\/\/graffitibooks.co.za\/products\/9781415201862","provider":"Graffiti Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
