Publisher's summary

On the run. Out of time. A brownie recipe worth millions.

Lovable loser Chris waits tables by day and dreams of making something better of himself by night. But, under the almighty, oppressive rule of The Board and their divisive caste system, it's nearly impossible. That is until his super-geek pal and fellow waiter, Forklift, hits upon a foolproof scheme: steal their employer's ultra-popular, top secret recipes and sell them on a black market internet site.

It's all fun and games until the mysterious death of a local hacker shatters their surefire plan, sending them on a fast-paced adventure through the city's seedy underground, where they hope to salvage what's left and avoid capture by the Board Agents at all costs. Nobody comes back from that. Nobody.

Just plain fun!

What did you love best about Going Shogun?

Listening to Going Shogun was the most fun I've had in ages. I love Ernie Lindsey's sense of humor and his ability to tell a story so vividly I feel as if I'm there. I was totally entertained by the adventures of Chris (aka Brick) and his best friend Forklift and their world dominated by a controlling government agency called The Board.

What was one of the most memorable moments of Going Shogun?

When Chris (aka Brick) realized what was really important in his life. It wasn't social status.

Which character – as performed by DJ Holte – was your favorite?

I liked all the characters. DJ Holte is so talented he makes them all come alive. Maybe Forklift, with his invented slang was my favorite.

If you were to make a film of this book, what would the tag line be?

Comic joy ride.

Any additional comments?

I highly recommend Going Shogun with a warning: Every audiobook you listen to afterward will seem mighty dull.
