Cyberchicks in Love: A Satire for the Star-Struck (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781925110173)

YOU'LL SMILE, YOU'LL LAUGH, YOU'LL CRINGE,

YOU'LL ESCAPE TO A WEIRD WORLD

YOU'LL WISH YOU WERE WEARING SUNGLASSES* . . .

"The Hitch-hiker's Guide to the Galaxy" meets "Mills & Boon" with a dash of Discworld, a dog-eared 1998 copy of Lonely Planet and a sprinkling of The Spice Girls.

"Cyberchicks in Love" is a laugh-out-loud, fast-paced romp that goes beyond "comic fantasy romance satire science fiction". The madcap adventures of a horde of beautiful young women all intent on pursuing the same movie star are woven into a spoof of fanfic, chick lit, bodice-rippers, virtual reality and travel guides. The writing is inventive and witty. The story is riddled with unfeasible stereotypes and the plot zigzags wildly.

At its heart, "Cyberchicks in Love" satirizes the adoration of ordinary fans for their idols of the silver screen. It's a rollicking read, with all the ingredients of a cult classic!

ABOUT THE AUTHOR

"Barb Dwyer" is a published author using a pseudonym, because she doesn't want to ruin her reputation as a serious writer by being associated with this fluffy book of madness.

She describes herself as a "Virtual love-child of Douglas Adams, Nora Roberts, Terry Pratchett and Jane Austen, though unacknowledged due to implausible genetic mutations."

Her advice is simply, "Read it and laugh."
