East of Ealing (The Brentford Trilogy Book 3)

“One of the rare guys who can always make me laugh”― Sir Terry Pratchett

“Stark, raving genius”― The Observer

“He becomes funnier the more you read him”― The Independent

“Douglas Adams on a sugar high”― Kirkus

“A heady mix of Flann O’Brien, Douglas Adams, Tom Sharpe and Ken Campbell, but with an inbuilt irreverence and indelicacy that is unique – and makes it the long-awaited, heavy smoker’s answer to The Lord Of The Rings’ ― Time Out

NEW REVISED EDITION FOR 2024

Ahead, where once had been only bombsite land, the Lateinos and Romiith building rose above Brentford. Within its cruel and jagged shadow, magnolias wilted in their window boxes and synthetic Gold Top became doorstep cheese…

Something sinister is happening east of Ealing. The prophecies of The Book of Revelation are being fulfilled.

Lateinos & Romiith, a vast financial network, is changing all the rules with a plan to bar-code every living punter and dispense with old-fashioned money. A diabolical scheme, which would not only end civilisation as we know it, but seriously interfere with drinking habits at the Flying Swan.

Can Armageddon, Apocalypse and other inconveniences of the modern age be stopped by the humble likes of Pooley and Omally, even with the help of Professor Slocombe and the time-warped Sherlock Holmes of Baker Street…?

First published forty years ago, EAST OF EALING is a classic of Far Fetched Fiction, a genre created by author Robert Rankin in hopes of having his own shelf in bookstores. Now, this third novel in the “Brentford Quadrilogy of trilogies” has been reimagined and repackaged for 2024 by Hooded Man Media and Far-Fetched Books.

If you enjoy the works of Douglas Adams, Jasper Fforde, and Terry Pratchett, then don’t miss out on EAST OF EALING and the wild imagination of Robert Rankin, and grab your copy now before the price changes!
