Body Building Spider Rangers: And Other Stories by Charles Austin Muir

SEE! the Ipsissimus Arachnus, the wall-crawling, occult commando unit BEHOLD! the Catholic church which changes into an automaton GAZE! upon self-love via a meta, sci-fi epistolary GIRD YOUR LOINS! for Charles Austin Muir’s debut collection, an unfiltered and utterly gonzo mutation of short fiction. A satire of satire, Bodybuilding Spider Rangers and Other Stories will surprise even the most seasoned readers of the absurd. “Highly satirical. Massively funny. Strangely positive.” –Jeff O’Brien, author of the BigBoobenstein series and Journey to the Center of the Flat Earth “…synonymous with muscles and madness.” –G. Arthur Brown, author of God’s Mean Older Brother and The Long Night of the Eternal Korean War “A surreal and gorgeously sleazy military masterpiece; swollen with pop-culture references and jacked-up on steroids…” –Chris Kelso, author of The Black Dog Eats the City
