(W/A/CA) Nick Maandag This debut collection showcases Nick Maandag's signature blend of deadpan satire and exceedingly unexpected plot twists. In 'Night School,' a class goes awry when a fire alarm brings the Chief to school and he decides to stick around to teach the students a thing or two about leadership-and discipline. 'The Disciple,' is a yarn about a co-ed Buddhist monastery, where Brother Bananas, the resident gorilla, isn't the only one having difficulty keeping his lust tucked safely under his robe.

Shane Oakley beautifully illustrates New York Times best-selling author Neil Gaiman's satirical tale. 'It's about what fantasy is, and why we write it, and what it would mean to write fantasy if you lived in a Gothic universe.'-Neil Gaiman
