Bloggers, reviewers, and other interested parties:

ARCs of my forthcoming dark fantasy/magic realism novel SHORT BUS HERO (Nightscape Press) will soon be available.

“SHORT BUS HERO has it all: Down syndrome, hoarding, suicide attempts, heart attacks, betrayal, redemption, angels, winning lottery numbers, and big time professional wrestling. A dark, sweet, and poignant tale about what happens when you follow your dreams.”

— S. G. Browne, author of BREATHERS, BIG EGOS, and FATED

“If you were the big Lottery winner, what would you do first? Why, resurrect the career of your favorite professional wrestler, of course. Touching, violent, hilarious, tragic and surreal—Short Bus Hero is an inspiring and emotional story.”

— Richard Thomas (you might know this guy!), author of STARING INTO THE ABYSS, co-editor of BURNT TONGUES

“From a mind-bending cornucopia of eclectic ingredients–troubled lottery winners, pro wrestlers on the skids, and restless angels are just the tip of the iceberg–Shannon Giglio has expertly crafted one of the strangest, cleverest, and, yes, sweetest, tales I have ever read. This wonderful novel has it all: ingeniously imagined characters, rousing and poignant adventures, and, perhaps most importantly, the true heart of a champion. Anyone who enjoys great storytelling will love this book.”

— Bill Breedlove, author of HOW TO DIE WELL

If you’re interested in obtaining a copy, please contact me here or Robert Shane Wilson at Nightscape Press (info @ nightscapepress.com).

Thank you!
