A science fiction comedy along the lines of Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy, Further Into The Future! is the story of a scientist, Professor John Bedford, who travels from 1949 to 2099 and becomes involved in a power struggle between two American dictators. Hammer, the dictator for thirty years, is overthrown in a coup by his handsome young protégé Cold Steel, known for using baseball metaphors in his speeches. The Professor expects a hero's welcome but instead he is ignored due to the civil strife and an uninterested populace. Eventually, a struggling rock band called the Time Travelers adopts him so he can perform in their show. Their rivals, the Corrupt Cops, steal their band equipment and the Professor's time machine, so the Time Travelers team up with other victimized bands to break into the Corrupt Cops' fortress and take back their possessions. If they succeed, they can compete in the American Rock Star contest for the honor of performing in the World Heritage Festival with cultural representatives from America's dictatorial allies. But Cold Steel is allied with the Corrupt Cops, so victory is impossible unless they find a way to put rather senile Hammer back in power.

"This book speaks to anyone with a neurodivergent brain, that may feel like an alien here on earth. I swear Browning made me laugh and cry and question reality...sometimes all in the same sentence." -JD Todd, author The universe is a very strange place. It will take even stranger heroes to save it. Potto is dim-witted, extremely forgetful and incredibly naïve. He wasn't always this way. Aye-Aye is devilishly shrewd and has boozed his way into a comfortable existence of incompetence and sleaze. How they ended up being two of the most wanted aliens in the galaxy is anyone's guess. Chased down by every oddball bounty hunter in the known universe, and befriended by a libidinous assassin, a fire-breathing reptilian, and a telepathic tree, their misadventures take them past Earth (the mall planet), to a floating sex circus, a planet of killer stuffed animals, an underground spaceship impound lot, and to a planet of reasonably priced bungalows. All while flying around in a ship powered by the brain waves of a psycho killer. A great prophecy proclaims that only "one of light, and one of dark" can save the universe from the dictatorship of The Node. That can't be Potto and Aye...Potto doesn't know what the word prophecy means, and neither know how to spell it. Part sci-fi epic, part absurd dark comedy, I Don't Seem So Bright in a Well-Lit Room is a comment on human behavior, depression, anxiety, and self-esteem. But way more fun than that sounds. So, do up your space seatbelts...it's going to be a bumpy ride. Despite the lack of potholes in space. (Sci-fi /Dark Humour/Absurd) *Completed! Enjoy!
