O knihe

Max surveyed the scenery around him
through dark Italian sunglasses. He paused in thought. What
he knew in his head was enough to topple champion foosball
players from glory to ignominy in an instant, or cause Jesus
to cry. Max is a chauffeur who has acquired precious
knowledge of his boss's diabolical intentions to conquer the
world. The powerful Herr McCoffee of Eglicata will squash
anyone in his path and has surrounded himself with a
colorful staff that includes Sylvia Smitharomance who has
slept her way straight into his cabinet, Manual McGetitdone
who has ridden McCoffee's coattails to prominence and is not
to be crossed, and Norbert Nodahead a "yes" man worthy of
distrust and scrutiny. When McCoffee learns about a
disadvantageous plant growing like a noxious weed on the
distant island of Dalilennon that has the ability to keep
his beautiful fowlawarfare alive, nothing will stop him from
harvesting the crop. As McCoffee attempts to create his own
defiant brand of world peace, he and his cabinet clash with
the likes of Roger Rightjet, Priest Precious, Julian
Knotsofoolista, and King Nocturnal in a humorous,
allegorical journey where good-as it must-wins in the end.
