The author, Eric G. Waggoner was born May 24, 1956 in Everett, Washington and has lived in western Washington most of his life. He is a production worker at the Boeing Company in Everett and a freelance writer. This is his first novel offering, a dark somewhat romantic comedy with a good helping of dangerous adventure and explosive action involving a couple of cantankerous hillbillies. He cites various influences – Hunter S. Thompson, Tom Robbins, Ken Kesey, James Michener and others too numerous to mention. A teller of tall tales, he hopes this is tall enough for you. Eric now lives in Marysville with his wife and his 16 year old daughter.
