<p/><br></br><p><b> About the Book </b></p></br></br>The square cloud, the portable tornado, and the Pirate are captured by a bungling psychotic cult. This is L.A. radio personality Earl Trout's hilarious transition to print. Includes a preview of "My First Three Years as an Idiot"<p/><br></br><p><b> Book Synopsis </b></p></br></br><p>The square cloud, the portable tornado, and the Pirate have all been captured by a bungling psychotic religious cult that wants to destroy Los Angeles. God help us.</p><p></p><p>Southern California, 2003 - The world of digital technology is exploding. For wimpy university physicist Theophilus Spivak, some of it explodes right in front of him! When the Channel 8 tower blows up during The Pirate's bootleg TV broadcast, Theo and his rocket scientist friend, Kevin Oxley, become the prime suspects.</p><p><br></p><p>Theo, Kevin, and their boss, Dr. Francis Weksler (the man who created the first stealth airplane) accidentally invent a device that controls weather. When they fly a tornado as if it were a radio-controlled drone, a half-witted, pseudo-religious cult imprisons them and demands weaponized weather. Coerced into creating a force that will destroy Los Angeles, Theo and his colleagues must decide whether to save the world ... or themselves.</p><p><br></p><p>With audacious creativity, this high-tech, high-tension, romantic comedy adventure reveals things you've probably never before seen, including: horse lips, robotic lizards, flaming zeros, the shoe-tree, exploding machine guns, that teardrop tattoo, a man-eating Rexlithar, and . . . a miracle. Funny and full of surprise, Wild Blue is flank speed clean entertainment with an occasional conservative jab at society. You'll smile warmly at the clumsy romance. You'll ponder startling facts. And you will laugh out loud. But if being "politically correct" is important to you, don't even get on this bus!</p><p><br></p><p/><br></br><p><b> Review Quotes </b></p></br></br><br><p>Ken Levine, Writer/Producer, <em>Cheers, M.A.S.H., Wings, Frasier</em> </strong><strong> </strong>"... a riotously entertaining novel. <em>Wild Blue </em>fascinates and tickles with a unique amalgam of romantic comedy and high-speed techno thrills. Every page delivers a laugh, frequently punctuated by tension-induced adrenaline ... be prepared to be surprised."</p><p><em>Dennis Kuhl, Chairman, Los Angeles Angels Baseball: </em></strong> "I enjoyed the surprises, the tension, and the laughs. But, I wish Dr. Weksler wasn't a Dodgers fan."</p><p><em>Jennifer Horn, Co-Host, "The Morning Answer"; Vice President, CRN Digital Network: </em></strong><em> </em>"<em>Wild Blue</em> is exciting, funny, and very visual. Reading it felt as if I was watching a blockbuster action movie, but without the obligatory gore, death, and foul language ... The romantic comedy subplot is especially entertaining and the courtship is sometimes hilarious."</p><p><em>Kevin McCullough, syndicated radio host, Fox News commentator, best-selling author, syndicated columnist: </em></strong><strong><em> </em></strong><em>"... </em>immediately sucked me in before I even knew where it was going. Refreshing slices of history, unsuspecting spontaneity, facts that surprise, and lip-biting action let me escape, and yet be surprised by the story's twists ... one immensely entertaining and satisfying tale. One wild ride!"</p><p><em>Mark Broussard, Jr., Founder/Director of Global 504 Missionary: </em></strong> "The Humor in this book continues to embarrass me as I sit alone, laugh out loud and quickly look around to check and see if anyone noticed. I love it ... If Jerry Seinfeld and Albert Einstein had a baby it would be named <em>Wild Blue</em>."</p><p><em>Pamela Strozier, adjunct Reading Professor at Penn Valley Metropolitan College: </em></strong> "... an intriguing and suspenseful novel, full of historical references with many twists and turns ... with a surprising love story ending. Earl Trout, you've written a must read adventuresome novel the reader will reflect upon long after the initial reading."</p><p><em>Greg Knapp, Kansas City talk radio personality, Rush Limbaugh fill-in host; </em></strong>"<em>Wild Blue</em> takes you on a crazy, funny ride with characters you'll love hanging out with. It's fun and exciting to save the world with duct tape and WD-40!"</p><p><em>Dave Armstrong, Vice President (ret.), Salem Media Group: </em></strong>"Try to guess what comes next in this novel and you will be wrong ... twists, turns, and surprises in a fast and furious (and funny) story ... a "spiritual" novel that non-Christians can love because they will be both entertained by the story, and intrigued by the revelations."</p><p><br></p><p><br></p><p><br></p><p><br></p><p><br></p><p><br></p><p><br></p><p><br></p><p><br></p><br>
