Publisher's summary

It takes guys as simple as the Squid and Ogre to make a story this complicated... and they’d really rather be trucking.Good old boys, the Squid and Ogre are trucking cross country when a UFO crashes right in front of them. Against his better judgment, the Squid lets Ogre load it onto his flatbed, then the feds in black helicopters show up.Life gets a whole lot weirder when they find themselves on the run not only from the law but also from every manner of Lovecraftian horror imaginable. To top it off they also get a beautiful stowaway, named Shaurna, who may not be from their own universe. One way or the other, they are gonna have to finish their run, even if it takes them right through the Dreamlands and into the clutches of the Crawling Chaos himself, Nyarlathotep!If you like to laugh in the face of unspeakable danger, this is the book for you. If you don't like to, this is probably exactly the kind of book you need to bring you around. Check it out!Praise for David J. West“West is a pulp writer of magnificent prowess, keen eye, and exotic taste, who effortlessly throws off a wide range of tales,” — D.J. Butler, author of Witchy Eye“David J. West is one of the best up and coming Neo-Lovecraftians I've had the privilege of reading. Cowboys, shoggoths, rednecks, and Old Ones with an easy consistent style.” — C. T. Phipps, author of Cthulhu Armageddon

Good trucker fantasy

Nailed the setting and told a cool story about desert road magic, and the trucking aspect was good and accurate. Didnt care for the AI narrator but glad I got to read it this way.
