Haunting. Harrowing. Hilarious. H.B. Marcus “Parasites” once again thrills, chills, and delights with another mad cap adventure with his chemi-head heros, Smokey and Spider, from “Crispy” and “The Joe Schmoe Show” as they once again set out to save the world. Jack spends most of his time as a reporter for his college newspaper debunking the psychics, ghosts, and hauntings his buddy, Phil, studies and writes up for the physical sciences department. Agnus Pinchot has died and left the local haunted manor to her daughter Barbara. Now Barbara is dead too. The college gets the house, and Jack’s editor has hooked him into another story on Brasher Manor and just how Barbara wound up with a bath towel in her lungs. Jack meets Phil at the manor, where his friend is already conducting a search for The Vapid Wraith Panacea—the book of the dead—rumored to be hidden there. Things are a little spooky, but explainable and going well until Spider and Smokey, the new janitors from the paper’s offices, show up, and tick off the parasitic poltergeist now residing in the house. Smokey and Spider continue to confound, confuse, amuse, and annihilate a new cast of delightful characters in HB Marcus’ third book Parasites. It’s filled with action and edge-of-your-seat plotting. But…WARNING…wear a seatbelt. Parasites is also filled with HB’s talent for witty inner dialogue and the roll-on-the-floor-laughing humor he does so well.
