  • The Lust Lizard of Melancholy Cove

    Christopher Moore

    Paperback (William Morrow Paperbacks, May 25, 2004)
    The town psychiatrist has decided to switch everybody in Pine Cove, California, from their normal antidepressants to placebos, so naturally—well, to be accurate, artificially—business is booming at the local blues bar. Trouble is, those lonely slide-guitar notes have also attracted a colossal sea beast named Steve with, shall we say, a thing for explosive oil tanker trucks. Suddenly, morose Pine Cove turns libidinous and is hit by a mysterious crime wave, and a beleaguered constable has to fight off his own gonzo appetites to find out what's wrong and what, if anything, to do about it.

  • Christopher Marley's Incredible Insects Sticker Book

    Christopher Marley

    Paperback (Pomegranate, Sept. 1, 2012)
    As a kid, Christopher Marley was afraid of bugs. But after his travels took him to farflung parts of the world inhabited by amazing insects, his fear gave way to fascination. The variety of forms and colors in the insect world is almost endless. Did you know that beetles alone account for nearly a quarter of all animal species on Earth? So Marley began collecting beetles, bugs, butterflies, and other insects, arranging them into stunning works of art such as the one shown here. Its art with a purpose: if more people experience the incredible beauty of these creepycrawly critters, perhaps they will not be so squeamish about them (and will be less likely to squish them, too!). Who knows? Maybe these stickers will help lead you, like Christopher Marley, to a lifetime of learning about the amazing world of insects! 8 page softcover book with more than 200 reusable paper stickers (99 different designs) featuring photographs of insects by Christopher Marley. Includes a diagram identifying all the insects.
