Poke of the Titans

by MCM

1889 Labs Ltd | February 15, 2009 | Trade Paperback

When Andrew Carnegie's flying locomotive deposits Archimedes the duck (and his telekinetic fish, Finley) in the vast Ohio desert, it is only the beginning of a long and torturous journey involving cannibalism, decapitation and social faux-pas. While Finley tries to create the perfect artificial poker game, the horrors of the backwater city of Zuckerstown come to light... and they are horribly unpleasant horrors indeed! Now, as his companions are brutally murdered in their hotel rooms each night, Archimedes must uncover the dark secret of the Titan Inn... before the killer strikes him as well!

    "Poke of the Titans" pokes fun at popular internet culture. Forgive the pun, it was not intended. The moral of the story is one I agree with and the path MCM guides you on will make you laugh more than once.

    Each of the Steamduck series is written for the kid in all of us. If you're not too grown-up, and you breathe oxygen, you'll find this purchase worthwhile.

    You can also find more Steamduck books at author's website, http://books.1889.ca/

    They are not all available on Chapters.
