A Best Second Novel finalist in the Indie a Book Awards, The Divine Dantes: Squirt Guns in Hades (Infernal Trilogy #1) sets the characters of The Divine Comedy loose in a comedic rock novel. If The Divine Comedy and Catcher in the Rye had a love child, The Divine Dantes: Squirt Guns in Hades would be it. The novel is the first in a trilogy of laugh-out-loud books paralleling Dante Alighieri's classic poem, The Divine Comedy, where the characters of The Inferno are encountered in modern times with surprising results. At the center is Eddie, a young rocker who is heartbroken after his girlfriend, Beatrice, leaves for Venice. This not only ends their relationship, but also the world's greatest two-person rock band. At Beatrice's request, Virgil-their erstwhile manager-cum-travel-agent guides Eddie to Europe to meet her without Eddie being in on the secret. Will Eddie want to see Beatrice? Will the band get back together? And if it does, can Eddie settle on a name for it? Read this literary, rock, love story today!
