Fun Times in a Dystopic Hellscape

Martina Fetzer

The road to Hell is paved through Indiana.
When a funeral calls, paranormal detectives Arturo Brooks and Edward Smith pack their physical and emotional baggage and take a road trip to Smith’s hometown. Mistake #1.
On a tip, they begin investigating a multidimensional business conglomerate. Mistake #2.
The detectives soon find themselves in a parallel universe that’s even worse than their original destination. One with a lot more leg warmers.
Can Brooks and Smith survive the 1980s a second time, in a world where giant rats, doppelgangers, and their own worst instincts rally against them? Can they do it on a diet of nothing but chain restaurant biscuits? They’ll need to if they’re going to find their way home.
That's assuming they still have one.
About the Series
From the mind of award-winning author* Martina Fetzer, the Brooks & Smith series brings fast-paced science fiction and fantasy with an emphasis on humor. It follows two detectives and their makeshift family on a series of increasingly absurd adventures. These books are often silly, sometimes dark, and never child friendly. Fun Times in a Dystopic Hellscape is Book #4.

🔹 The Social Anxiety Checklist™ (includes "Laughed weirdly and immediately regretted it") 
🔹 A guide to Overanalyzing Texts (Spoiler: Just Stop) 
🔹 A Flowchart for Deciding Whether to Send That Apology Text (Spoiler: Don’t Do It)
