Ryan is a university student dealing with the normal problems of a 22-year-old guy – shyness, virginity, weird roommates, and a massive crush on Cassandra, a waitress at his local greasy spoon. (Oh, and a freakish ability to change into a fly.) When he finally gets up the nerve to ask Cassandra for a date, he learns that the two have more in common than they first thought. (Turns out that Cassandra can make things disappear.) Sharing their secrets for the first time, Ryan and Cassandra realize they were made for each other...and to battle forces of evil! Inspired by Sailor Moon, they team up to fight the villians in their own backyard, taking on cigarette barons, right wing newspapers, and the overzealous local police. But can the Superheroes for Social Justice transform the world in time? Find out in... Munroe is a Canadian science fiction author, who publishes his works independently under the imprint No Media Kings. He was managing editor at the magazine Adbusters in the 1990s, before publishing his debut novel Flyboy Action Figure Comes With Gasmask in 1999. The following he release Angry Young Spaceman through his No Media Kings imrpint and, in the U.S., Four Walls Eight Windows. A couple of years later he published Everyone in Silico, which was promoted partly by Munroe’s attempt to invoice corporations mentioned in the novel for product placement. Munroe’s most recent books are graphic novels set in post-Rapture Chicago and Detroit. Munroe was the founder of Perpetual Motion Roadshow, a North American indie touring circuit that sent 100 writers, performers and musicians on the road between 2003-2007. A former video games columnist for Eye Weekly, he is a founding board member of the Hand Eye Society and has produced projects such as the Torontron.

Trade Paper. Etat : Fine. First Edition. 1st printing of the first Canadian edition of the author's first book. LAID IN: PUBLISHER'S REVIEW MATERIALS and unused FLYBOY DECAL. A trade paper original in card covers. A finalist for the Books in Canada First Novel Award. A square, tight and unread copy with minor wear at the heel of the spine. The press release is written by the author in the form of a letter. In the letter he writes about the novel, his career as a publisher of small press publications and zines, the fact that his manuscript was plucked from the slush pile by an editor at HarperCollins and his plans to tour the book accompanied by an indie-pop band. Apparently, Munroe's previous experience as a self-publisher meant that he was uncomfortable in the yoke of a big publishing house and his relationship with HarperCollins soured quickly. Since writing this book he has returned to the small press world and publishes his books under the imprint No Media Kings. An autographed copy of the first book published by NMK, entitled Angry Young Spaceman, is also available from this bookseller. Canadian orders will be charged GST. N° de réf. du vendeur 000972
