Jim Munroe is a "pop culture provocateur", according to the Austin Chronicle. After the HarperCollins release of Flyboy Action Figure Comes With Gasmask (praised by people as diverse as Naomi Klein and Neil Gaiman) he chose to release his following books (Angry Young Spaceman, Everyone In Silico) on his own imprint No Media Kings as a statement against Murdoch-style consolidation. He's touring with his new novel An Opening Act of Unspeakable Evil, a tale of the urban occult made up entirely of blog entries. "It has all Munroe's trademark charm, his wonderful, rueful fondness for his own characters, and a genuine mystery: is Lilith a demoness or isn't she?" --Georgia Straight www.nomediakings.org
