The Universe, Earl Grey and a Duck is a standalone novel and follow-up story to 2022’s Nothing Sacred - A Divine Comedy.Earl Grey, with fatherly advice from the ever-present Mind of the Universe, a cosmic-sized entity known as John Doe, resumes his quest to save humanity from imminent extinction. Leveraging his access to past and future timelines, Earl presents disturbing evidence and undeniable arguments designed to shake humanity from its lethargic indifference. However, as usual, Earl’s daily life remains mired in debilitating bouts of dwindling self-confidence, selfish distractions, and highly inopportune attention deficits.In need of help and numerous bodyguards, Earl forms J.D. and Associates, a company dedicated to the preservation of Homo Sapiens. Along with his pint-sized best friend Orlando, Mary-Lynn Wu, his beautiful and resourceful girlfriend, and retired Monsignor Matthew Bellecourt, Earl travels the world in search of political or religious support. But after being met with unbridled apathy, Earl starts to question whether humanity is even worth the effort. With cracks forming in his relationship with Mary-Lynn and the worst of humanity plotting his demise, Earl seeks guidance from John Doe, only to discover the Mind of the Universe might not be playing with a full deck of cards.UEGD picks up six months after the events of Nothing Sacred - A Divine Comedy. Fans of the critically applauded novel will be delighted to catch up on Earl’s bumbling efforts and those of his numerous adversaries, such as the U.S. Government, the Vatican, the Bilderberg Group, the Raelian religion, the C.I.A., and the worst Special Ops team in military history. Professionally edited by the acclaimed Malcolm Croft of London, UK, UEGD remains, first and foremost, a comedy. But NS fans will instantly recognize the continued sardonic style akin to Douglas Adams and the carefully placed undertones of physics, philosophy, and universal wonder.
