WELCOME TO NEWVALE!

It’s two hundred years since entrepreneur, Thomas Fuller founded the town of Newvale and the Council are planning a big celebration that is being welcomed with a wave of apathy. Most of the townspeople are too busy getting on with their own lives to become excited about something as intangible as a birthday party.

Flocking Bustards! Tells the tale of several disparate residents whose stories merge and intertwine. Events that begin as everyday and mundane develop into memorable, life-changing and occasionally surreal occurrences. No man, woman or animal is an island and every action has consequences for someone else - usually complete strangers who end up wondering what the bloody hell they did to deserve it.

Yes, there is sex and drugs and violence, and dishonesty and government corruption and journalistic excess and cross-dressing, and goats - but it’s not all fun and games; there are also aliens, one-legged French footballers, stuffed weasels, naked dancers and hallucinogenic home-made wine.

Flocking Bustards! is an adult comedy novel which blends lots of small stories into one big one and takes a 200th birthday snapshot of a small town without giving it the chance to comb its hair or tuck its shirt in.

‘Outrageous - and dangerously funny.’ - Straits Echo

‘Bob Rogers is a genuinely funny writer’ - Gareth Gwenlan

‘Wickedly perceptive’ - Radio 4

‘You will laugh until it hurts’ - ‘Daily Post’
