More DescriptionFrom the author of The Postmortal comes a fantasy saga unlike any you've read before. At once bitingly funny and emotionally absorbing, it weaves elements of classic folk tales and video games into a riveting, unforgettable adventure of what a man will endure to return to his family."Ben, a middle-aged father of three, decides to kill some time on a business trip by taking a hike, only to discover that he has embarked on a fantastical, surreal epic adventure, replete with dog-faced killers, colossal insects, a cannibalistic giant and a friendly yet profane crustacean. Endlessly inventive and joyously weird, The Hike will keep the reader breathlessly turning pages right up to the mind-blowing twist of an ending. For fans of Chuck Palahniuk and Ernest Cline." - Bill's Bookshelf Selector, Bill Kelly
