The storyteller Boz returns with bizarre and hysterical tales from across time and space.

Boz has traveled the cosmos and through time to bring you tales you have never dreamed could be real – but they are. Witnessing the experiences himself, Boz has chronicled stories of elder gods toying with his childhood friend, Robert Kipner in the 1920s. He has carefully recorded hilarious accounts of the misadventures circling his best friend and sociopath, Jimmy as he sails the Milky Way to earn a buck. In between, Boz has jotted quick, entertaining moments of time, collecting them in one volume, for those who only read while on the toilet.

Boz writes books of the macabre, the fiction of science, and the fantastical make-believe worlds of medieval. Kipner’s Boon, Boz’s latest novel, will be available for purchase from Boz himself along with acquiring the coveted Boz Seal upon the inside cover.
