The Sage Chronicles
Imaginary Writer Versus the Multiverse
Shifting dimensions, eccentric aliens and batty earthlings.
Love, hope, courage and acceptance—but there is danger!
The Way Beyond: The Life and Times of Halycon Sage
Sage and No-Name Stupid, his TV-watching, motel-sleeping horse, have escaped into the western desert to save the world. They’re helped by a brilliant but eccentric Czech inventor, an Iraqi-American family facing ruin, Ruby—resourceful queen of the Dirty Dog Gang—and Ratbone of the Fifth St. Mofos. They’re opposed by some detectives, some spies, and a shadowy figure of evil. The book critics, outlaws, and tiny invisible robots could go either way.
The Life and Times of Halycon Sage has the stirring immediacy of a guitar riff.
—BlueInk Review
“This deliciously funny, madcap novel leaps with frenetic energy reminiscent of Mid-1960s post modernism. —Kirkus Review
A tale that skirts in and out of reality and fancy, like a porpoise bobbing above and below the waves. — author James Partlow
Sage’s Multiverse Mini-Series
The latest from our imaginary author, an intricately woven tapestry of viewpoints and characters: short stories, mini-novels, poetry, interviews, diaries, and more. Encounter the Green World and the World of Light, Five Tips for Intergalactic Diplomacy, bewildered writer Karima navigating the chaotic world of airports, a Cat Attorney who shares his diary and advises a canine inquirer on dogagories. So jump into a novel, a post or a poem. You never know where you’ll come out, but you know it’s going to be an awesome ride!
