Stella is enjoying life as an almost student, or at least she is until a man falls from the sky right in front of her, leaving a big old hole in the pavement for Manchester Council to fill. The obvious question of how he ended up in the sky in the first place has no obvious answers, which is where The Stranger Times come in. The Stranger Times is the first novel from C.K. McDonnell, the pen name of Caimh McDonnell. It combines his distinctive dark wit with his love of the weird and wonderful to deliver a joyous celebration of how truth really can be stranger than fiction. Revellers at a children’s Halloween party were left spooked when the affair was gatecrashed by a ghost dog. A gag-filled romp … in the spirit of Terry Pratchett. Ripping entertainment from start to finish.’ The Times
