About
The author of Darwin Speaks! is back with a hilarious new novel, October Surprise, that skewers the world of international diplomacy. Rex Avalon fears his assignment to the American Embassy in the tiny European kingdom of Morovia will be a career dead end. His life gets much more interesting when the country's foreign minister offers him the opportunity to lead the country's transition to democracy. Rex soon finds out, though, that other, more sinister players have their sights set on the nation and its valuable but controversial lithium supply. He must also figure out how the kingdom's beautiful, young queen fits into the picture. Part satire, part political thriller, and part fairy tale love story, October Surprise will keep you guessing, laughing, and maybe even thinking about some of our weightiest contemporary challenges.
