Telepathic hospice workers... a Danish prince haunted by his immortality... a naked mercenary with the ultimate bioweapon... a ghostly gunslinger in a showdown with the Devil's bandits... a writer losing his dog and his mind... a wormhole with a cure to every human ill...
Slippery When Metastasized.
Sixteen pieces of prose and poetry inspired by the author's wife and her struggles to live with, and overcome, cancer. The genres of horror, science fiction, spaghetti western, bizarro, all get a turn in Slippery When Metastasized, an absurdist, darkly comic, surreal, metafictional, pop culture-laced tour into fear, grief, helplessness, and determination to navigate the insanity of life.
Slippery When Metastasized: A literary medical report on the fears, sorrows, joys, wonders, assaults, and tender moments of life after a single phone call shatters even the smallest illusions.
With influences ranging from Franz Kafka to Ray Bradbury to '80s action movies, Charles Austin Muir "is a genre to himself... sit back and enjoy the insanity. You'll laugh your way into the abyss and maybe cry a little, too."
--Brendan Vidito, Wonderland Award-winning author of Nightmares in Ecstasy

Charles Austin Muir is the Splatterpunk Award-nominated author of the comedic horror collection, This Is a Horror Book, and the bizarro collection, Bodybuilding Spider Rangers and Other Stories. His fiction is a blend of absurdism, dark comedy, weird horror, heartfelt literary, and nostalgia with influences ranging from Franz Kafka to Ray Bradbury to '80s action movies. His stories have appeared in many horror and bizarro anthologies, including Peel Back the Skin, 18 Wheels of Horror, Year's Best Hardcore Horror, This Book Ain't Nuttin to F*** With, and the Bram Stoker Award-nominated Dark Visions and Hell Comes to Hollywood. A former journalist and ex-powerlifter, Muir was an obituary writer, humor writer, and fitness columnist before he became a personal trainer. His experiences with grief, professional and personal, and his passion for healthy movement also influence his bizarre, darkly humorous, sometimes surreal writings. After the release of This Is a Horror Book, Silent Motorist Media named him one of "Ten Weird Writers to Save Us All in 2019." He lives in Portland, Oregon, with his wife, pugs, and pit lab.
