Official Synopsis: Stephen Mansfield, an amnesiac former boxer, is desperately trying to put the pieces of his past back together. Along with his girlfriend, a pregnant prostitute named Fancy, he decides to leave his dilapidated New York apartment in search of anything that will help him remember who he is. Their world is changed almost immediately, however, when robbed by a band of marauders just outside of Cleveland. Forced to do what they must to survive, they find themselves on a violent, cross-country crime spree. While on the road and eluding a nationwide manhunt, Mansfield realizes they’re not only traveling state to state but through time as well. From conversing with Timothy McVeigh the night before he blows up the Oklahoma City Federal Building, to running from Hurricane Katrina, to Mansfield actually being the second gunman on the grassy knoll, the two repeatedly find themselves in the midst of the most defining moments of the past sixty years. We Are Oblivion is a nihilistic journey of discovery and destruction. As Mansfield and Fancy travel through space and time they struggle to find love in a world in which they’ve never truly fit in. But as Fancy’s belly swells, Mansfield’s memory begins to return. And he wonders if Fancy, the only person he’s ever fully trusted, can be trusted at all.
Hope you guys check it out and enjoy it as much as I did.
Thanks,

Kindled that mother.
Tuffy the Dump Truck may rarely increase the risk of a heart attack or stroke. The risk may be greater if you have heart disease or increased risk for heart disease (for example, due to smoking, family history of heart disease, or conditions such as high blood pressure or diabetes), or with longer use. Tuffy should not be taken right before or after heart bypass surgery. Also, Tuffy may infrequently cause serious (rarely fatal) bleeding from the stomach or intestines. This effect can occur without warning symptoms at any time while taking Tuffy. Older adults may be at higher risk for this effect. (See also Precautions and Drug Interactions sections.) Stop taking Tuffy and get medical help right away if you notice any of the following rare but serious side effects: bloody or black/tarry stools, persistent stomach/abdominal pain, vomit that looks like coffee grounds, chest/jaw/left arm pain, shortness of breath, unusual sweating, weakness on one side of the body, sudden vision changes, slurred speech. Ask your doctor if Tuffy is right for you.
Free shipping on the Hardcover at amazon if you choose it at checkout -the selection reads 5-8 days for delivery time, but mine shipped much faster than that.

I'm guessing the cheap price is o build word of mouth?

I'm about to giveaway 10 or 20 copies of the kindle edition via Twitter, so if you're not sure and you're stingey and don't want to spend a buck then head over to my Twitter and wait for the tweet on how to go about getting your freeby.
Okay, the tweet has been sent. Now I wait for my inbox to fill up. Seriously, guys, if you've got Kindle, even on your computer or phone, go find out how to get a free copy. I want to give these all away right now. @docodonnell
You may be preaching to the converted here. How about doing a give-away on Goodreads?

Ah, just covering all bases. I'm only giving away 20 of them. I've posted on facebook and Twitter and I'm getting a pretty steady stream of emails. I'd say they'll all be gone by the day's end. Cheers, Mirka.
Cheers! 
Man, guy is killin' it in the Amazon rankings. I know it's not top 100 or even to 1,000, but pretty fucking good for a guy that's on a small press with almost zero advertising. Just goes to show you how effective word of mouth can be.
Yes, mouth-love is always a good thing.
This is the book club selection next month, right? Think I'm gonna hold off reading a couple/few weeks and join in then.
Yes, sir.
Great news about the amazon rankings. It certainly doesn't hurt that the book's damn good.
