"An almost-funny collection, just short of making me laugh." - Prestigious reviewer
Frat bros in space, flying pyramids, tasty pickles, 70s fashion, and sheets of Abraham Lincoln stamps. Kangblabla! features five unique space-faring short stories collected in one anthology.
Sigma Delta Purple
It's 1999 at College State and Gordan is ready to score with his crush during a party at the Sigma Delta Purple frat house. But the event is suddenly interrupted when an extra-terrestrial arrives, granting four boys the opportunity to unlock all knowledge in the universe. The catch: the knowledge can only be claimed by a virgin... and no frat brother is willing to admit that they are.
Totalus
The powerful Totalus Empire, led by the sinister Emperor Totalus, has constructed its secret weapon: The World Ender Base, the largest, most advanced battle station in the universe. Crewed by a staff of thousands, the station strikes fear in the hearts of the brave Resistance. But with a crew so large, it is easy to forget about the little-guys: the soldier who waits in position for hours just to salute the Emperor as he emerges from his shuttle, the pilot who gets left behind because her fighter didn't have gas, or the bartender who sees it all, because you know there must be a bar in a place like this. Told over a series of five vignettes, meet the ordinary people who make the universe's deadliest battle station what it is.
Desmond of the Asteroid Belt
Desmond lives alone on the asteroid belt and is afraid to venture outside his home, but when his brother is suddenly taken captive by a mysterious villain, he'll have to learn to face his fears once and for all.
Valentine's Day 1979: An Intergalactic Adventure
It's Valentine's Day in 1979 and for Ryan Gifford, love is just the one thing he can't seem to find in the City of Brotherly Love. But after a strange encounter at the local cinema, Ryan's life suddenly takes a dramatic change when he learns he must marry an alien Princess in order to stop an intergalactic war. Whether he is ready for it or not, Ryan is thrusted into a life of romance, intrigue and space aliens who don't seem to understand his 70s slang.
The Intergalactic Post Office
Karen works a simple job behind the counter at the Intergalactic Post Office, responsible for delivering packages across the galaxy. With all walks of life visiting the office each day, she never knows who might walk in!
