Kiss of the Cockroach Queen:
a King Wong adventure
Jim Jackson
King Wong, the world’s only exoterric consultant and expert on the Otherkind, is down on his luck with a leaky, keep-you-up-at-night shower and a fold-out bed in grungy Kowloon.
​
So, when an expensive-looking dame from the swanky Mid-Levels offers him a year’s rent to find her missing shady, financial-wizard husband, he takes the case.
​
Now, he needs to track down an ancient, Tang-dynasty magic and a buxom, violet-eyed barmaid cult leader in Hong Kong’s seedy, mystical underbelly with only the help of a backpacker girl and whatever allies he can muster from the mists of Chinese myth.
​
Or is he just making all this mythical stuff up?
The Guru Girl Gambit
Jim Jackson
King Wong's most dangerous case yet!
​
A gang of Korean mythical beasts who take their bodies from cast-off belongings move into the streets of Hong Kong just as people are in the thrall of decluttering guru who's convincing everyone to cast-off their belongings.
​
From the streets of Tsim Sha Tsui to the sewers under Kowloon Walled City to the Jade Palace of Celestial Emperor himself, this thrill ride promises a few laughs between shivers and shudders.
