Strangelove Place by David Thompson

Ok, so Janie didn't die - I'll give you that...

A spell-binding tale, inspired by the Orpheus myth and set in contemporary London, that will transport the reader to an occult world of inexplicable death, conspiracy theory and impossible music.

All Stephen Anthony Floyd wants from life is to make music and spend time with his girlfriend Janie and his friends on St Ragnulf's Place. But, with the appearance of a mysterious motorcycle messenger and a number of increasingly bizarre events, Stephen finds his life turned upside down and his perception of what is real and what is not severely challenged. His world revolves itself into a number of important questions that need to be answered, such as why his next-door neighbour has (literally) exploded; who is the despatch rider who seems to be stalking him; what are the Blood of the Lamb up to; how can Valhalla Rag Records possibly exist; and, perhaps most critically, will Janie ever speak to him again?

A quirky and magical blend of Haruki Murakami, Nick Hornby and Neil Gaiman, Strangelove Place is a funny, moving, surreal, and metaphysical tale about love, loss and a strange world that exists parallel to ours and of which we are not usually aware.

Thompson, David: - David Thompson lives in Cincinnati, Ohio and has been working to develop the new role-playing game, EverLore and the BoundLess Gaming System for several years. The EverLore Campaign Setting offers a fresh take on tabletop RPGs. This fantasy realm, full of new monsters, deities, dangers and adventures, offers a unique vision on character creation, combat, magic and spell casting. The BoundLess Gaming System does not rely on levels or classes, which allows players to game without limits. ManChild, Ltd. is the brainchild of David Thompson, and is a new company that was literally formed around the dining room table. We hope that you enjoy the release of this role-playing game, and that you will also try out Legions, our card game based on the same world. Driven by a dream, and passion to succeed, EverLore is only the beginning of what we have in store. We invite you to grow with us as we develop board games, novels, video games and eventually live-action movies based on the ever-expansive EverLore Campaign Setting.
