A Happy Bureaucracy
If Mad Max meets Terry Gilliam’s Brazil with a heaping dash of Hunter S. Thompson’s distilled madness sounds like a thing that you can groove to then A Happy Bureaucracy is the uncut primo-shit you have been looking for! Out wherever eBooks are available, this fever dream novel has all of the bleak humor that a clown cemetery cannot deliver.
Fear and Loathing in the Wasteland
Armed with red ink, and a suitcase full of only the most-high powered drugs, Arthur and Rabia return to the savage United Wastes. Their mission? Nothing less than taking down The Colonel’s slave operation.
Post-Apocalyptic Pirates
With a clipboard and an iron will to burn everything in their path, Arthur and Rabia set out to make the United Wastes their bitch once more. This time they have the entire U.S. Army and the IRS to topple if they want to end Boyd’s schemes to enslave the entire wasteland. No big deal.
Existential Terror and Breakfast
A man drowning in his own mind. Also pancakes. Malcolm Steadman is a completely average everyman whose life goal is to fit in. This, of course, is too much to ask for. Especially considering that he is also prone to paralyzing panic attacks triggered by everything from burnt toast to boredom. Can he win out against the mundane? Can he face the absurd?
Background
M.P. Fitzgerald is an author and humorist who was born in Reno but is safe and far away from there now. He writes stories across genres for misfits, weirdos, mad scientists, philosophers, and pirates alike. If you have ever been halfway through a Science Fiction novel and thought, hey, this could use a lot more drugs and insanity in it, then his fiction is for you!
He is currently writing in a single series. Whimsy is a weapon, let’s play with the safety off.
The Happy Bureaucracy books are a series of post-apocalyptic parody novels set in the “United Wastes”, a post-nuclear war America where the IRS is the only institution to survive. The first full-length novel in the series, A Happy Bureaucracy, sees Arthur McDowell, a tax agent, sent to audit a savage warlord. Fear and Loathing in the Wasteland, and the other books in the series have been likened to Mad Max meets Office Space with a heavy dash of Gonzo.
M.P. Fitzgerald currently lives in Seattle where you can’t hurt him.
