When a spaceship landed in an open field in the quiet mill town of Sorrow Falls, Massachusetts, everyone realized humankind was not alone in the universe. With that realization everyone freaked out for a little while. Or almost everyone. The residents of Sorrow Falls took the news pretty well. This could have been due to a certain local quality of unflappability, or it could have been that in three years the ship did exactly nothing other than sit quietly in that field, and nobody understood the full extent of this nothing the ship was doing better than the people who lived right next door.

Graduate students from a local university are dying, and former lover and FBI agent Maggie Trent is the only person who believes their deaths aren't as accidental as they appear. But the truth can only be found in something from Corrigan Bain's past, and he's not interested in sharing that past, not even with Maggie. To stop the deaths, Corrigan will have to face up to some old horrors, confront the possibility that he may be going mad, and find a way to stop a killer no one can see.

Story4.5 out of 5 stars 87
Corrigan Bain was retired. It wasn’t something he ever thought he’d be able to do. The problem was that the job he wanted to retire from wasn’t actually a job at all: Nobody paid him to do it, and nobody else did it. With very few exceptions, nobody even knew he was doing it. Corrigan called himself a fixer, because he fixed accidents that were about to happen. It was complicated and unrewarding, and even though doing it right meant saving someone, he didn’t enjoy it.

Once he finds Robbie and Carol, two equally disoriented Harvard freshmen, he realizes he isn’t alone, but the name sticks: Whateverpocalypse. But it doesn’t explain where everyone went. It doesn’t explain how the city became overgrown with vegetation in the space of a night. Or how wild animals with no fear of humans came to roam the streets.

On the continent of Geo, in the city of Velon in the nation of Inimata, a man lies dead in his study. In life, Professor Orno Linus was a world-class scholar: an astrophysicist, a dead-language linguist, and an expert in (and apparent true believer of) the religious concept of the Cull, i.e., the end of the world. Widely respected, nothing about Linus’s expertise suggests somebody might want him dead.

For most of humankind, the woman calling herself Eve has been nothing more than a shock of red hair glimpsed out of the corner of the eye, in a crowd, or from a great distance. She's been worshipped, feared, and hunted, but perhaps never understood. Now, she's trying to reconnect with the world, and finding that more challenging than anticipated. Can the oldest human on Earth rediscover her own humanity? Or will she decide the world isn't worth it?

Not that he'd ever admit it, but maybe he's been waiting - waiting for the traveler to come back. The one who's roared into his life twice before, pausing just long enough to drop tantalizing clues before disappearing in a cloud of gunfire and a squeal of tires. The one who's a walking anachronism, with her tricorne hat, flintlock rifle, and steampunked Model A Ford.

Publisher's summary
When Oliver Naughton joins the Tenth Avenue Writers Underground, headed by literary wunderkind Wilson Knight, Oliver figures he'll finally get some of his wild imaginings out of his head and onto paper.
But when Wilson takes an intense interest in Oliver's writing and his genre stories of dragons, aliens, and spies, things get weird. Oliver's stories don't just need to be finished: they insist on it.
With the help of Minerva, Wilson's girlfriend, Oliver has to find the connection between reality, fiction, the mythical Cydonian Kingdom, and the non-mythical nightclub called M Pallas. That is, if he can survive the alien invasion, the ghosts, and the fact that he thinks he might be in love with Minerva.
Unfiction is a wild ride through the collision of science fiction, fantasy, thriller, horror, and romance. It's what happens when one writer's fiction interferes with everyone's reality.
Unfiction is the latest novel from Gene Doucette, the best-selling author of The Spaceship Next Door.

John Charming isn't your average prince... He comes from a line of Charmings - an illustrious family of dragon slayers, witch-finders and killers dating back to before the fall of Rome. Trained by a modern day version of the Knights Templar, monster hunters who have updated their methods from chain mail and crossbows to Kevlar and shotguns, John Charming was one of the best-until a curse made him one of the abominations the Knights were sworn to hunt.

If you've never read a Repairman Jack novel, this is the place to begin. It's 1990. A twenty-one-year-old named Jack has dropped out of college, leaving his old life behind to build a new one in New York City. Manhattan's rough edges are jagged enough to shred any unwary newcomer, but perhaps not one who is determined to stay off the grid, at any cost, in the busiest metropolis on earth. And to do so, he'll have to take jobs of a less than legal nature.

Fantastic, Creative, Fun - and well narrated
I love all of Gene Doucette’s books, but I have to say this one was wildly different. Fever dreams of any writer, writ large across multiple genres. Without spoilers, it was full of eye-rolling humor, self deprecation, thrills, drama, and let’s face it: the kitchen sink.
This is a unique and standalone book, which should be enjoyable to anyone - particularly any wannabe authors.

UNREALITY IN THE TWILIGHT ZONE
Rod Serling (The Twilight Zone) would be proud of the masterful story telling and performance of this unique and highly entertaining book that drags the characters and the reader through myriad clichés and tropes of sci-fi, fantasy, adventure, writer geeks, intrigue, chicanery and mixed mayhem and mystery mingled with flying alien bugs, dragons, magicians, sexual innuendo....all captivatingly managed with lighthearted, self-abasing humor, and hardly ANY run-on sentences!
Highly recommended!!!!

The Writers Guild takes a trip to Wonderland
I had a bit of trouble getting into this story for the first couple chapters but I'm very fond of the author so I pushed through. I'm very glad I did this is probably one of the most creative weaving of stories that I've read in a long time! one of those books that you like more and more as you listen and are sad when it ends

Perfectly Captured Tone and Well Matched Wit
It's not uncommon for me to grit and white-knuckle my way through an audio book's questionable mode of narration for the sake of a good story. Unfiction was pleasantly absent of such a compromise. Author Gene Doucette writes with sharp wit and the keen observation of a true student of the human experience. With nostalgic nods to all our favorite old stories Doucette playfully spins a yarn that is contemporary and new yet warmly familiar.
Narrator Brad Wills captures Doucette's voice with impeccable timing and delivery. Clear and articulate, Wills delivers the story at a pace that matches the tone and feeling of the story: quick and abrupt when the action is hot, steady and deliberate when delivering the more introspective moments of the piece.
It's unfortunate that Wills is not the narrator of Doucette's The Spaceship Next Door as it is next on my list of must listen audio books, as I have enjoyed both the story and its narration immensely.
Listen close and look for the clues as Wills delivers the story of Oliver Naughton's constantly shifting reality in Gene Doucette's Unfiction. You won't be disappointed!

Wonderful.
I had no idea where the story was going. Or stories. It had me laughing out loud in places. The section where the protagonist was trying to write a romance had me cracking up.
I've been appreciating Steve Carlson's narration of Gene Doucette's other books and was surprised to find a different narrator. I almost didn't get it because of that and I would have missed out on this gem. Brad Wills was perfect for this book.
Keep writing books and I'll keep reading them. Or listening to them.

Kafkaesque fantasy
If Kafka could do plots, he may have written this. Amazing plots, lots of surprises for the reader, and even in the end, when a cliché seemed inevitable, he managed to avoid it.
Performance is very good.

I’d like to wake up?
What a strange and compelling story. I went from wanting to get to the end of a short story, to waiting to get the the end of many short stories. I found the book exasperating and hard to put down. It wasn’t what I expected, but I enjoyed the journey. I have been working my way through Gene Doucettes library and have found all of the books enjoyable.
