Adrian Flodden, 23, is crazy for heavy metal, literature, and for women of 30 -although the latter only bring trouble.

Overview

Adrian Flodden, 23, is crazy for heavy metal, literature, and for women of 30 -although the latter only bring trouble. While his articles on a magazine draw attention to his favourite writers, his college radio show upsets and uplifts his audience due to the singular thoughts he vents and the songs he plays to back these up. Drama and comedy mingle with loads of loud bands in this amusing novel.

Rest assured that you will enjoy it from start to finish because of its jovial tone (merging the styles of Dickens and Bukowski), its consistent, swift-paced plot and keenly defined characters; along several nods to classic books, videogames and popular movies, plus a strong dosage of electric guitars throughout its 13 chapters - as plenty of songs by Alice Cooper, Motorhead, Iron Maiden, Scorpions, Deep Purple, Black Sabbath, etc, feature in to tell the story. Quite a feast!

Meet the Author

In a nutshell: I was born and raised in Mexico city; studied Communications at a private University; worked in the advertising industry and served the Department of Education. Later on I spent almost two years in Dublin, where I earned a Higher Diploma in Journalism and Media, also gaining the confidence to pursue what I always craved - and ever since the fall of 2010, I have devoted myself entirely to the fulfilment of a literary career.
