Frivolous Pursuits: A Hipposync Archives novel
By D.C. Farmer
Darren Trott has a job, a feisty girlfriend (with plans) and a house with potential. Oh yes, he’s living the dream. It just isn’t the dream he applied for.
Psychopathic relatives, aboriginal demons, warrior queens, and a Brownie called George (with claws, a pork-pie hat and an attitude bigger than a banker’s wage), all want a piece of Darren. But they'll have to form an orderly queue because there's the small matter of an impending apocalypse to sort out first…
DC Farmer cordially invites you to join him in exploring the next white-knuckle case report from the Hipposync archives.

MY HONEST REVIEW OF: Frivolous Pursuits
After Darren’s
mother died, his self-centered girlfriend moves in with him, and takes over.
Not only does she make him miserable, but her overbearing father is Darren’s
boss, making his work hours unbearable too. His only bright spot is when he can
be alone with his hobby of photographing action figures against off-handed
backdrops. But after one of the action figures starts talking to him, Darren is
suddenly drawn into an unbelievable world of his own creation.
I felt this
plot has all the right ingredients; interesting backstory, loveable characters,
villains, and a promise of more adventure to come. I felt sorry for Darren,
even though he could have changed his home circumstances at any time. This type
of photographing hobby sounds intriguing. I wouldn’t mind having that talent. But
to be able to make things come alive, I don’t think I would like that. I look
forward to reading more of Darren’s expeditions.
