Episode #239 Venus Sings the Blues
with Buck Storm
If you can’t tell yet, I am a Buck Storm fan. He has been on the podcast twice before and you are going to enjoy today’s conversation. Buck’s books would make fabulous gifts and stocking stuffers, just saying. He writes all his books to stand alone, but you will notice that some of the same characters pop up from book to book in a particular series. I am looking forward to reading more of Buck’s books. Here’s a little bit about his book, :Venus Sings the Blues”
What if you could change your life and write your own story? What if you could make your dreams come true?
To say Bones isn’t thrilled with his dead-end job at the Venus Motel would be an understatement. But when you’re fifteen with no family, expecting any prospects for your future feels pretty pointless. You just have to roll with the whims of the powers that be. And the motel owner, Calico Foster, can’t keep herself afloat, much less rescue a lost kid. A job is all she can offer.
Why Jimmy La Roux chooses the Venus to land at when he rolls out of the desert and into the parking lot is more than anyone knows. But with a rattle of Harley pipes and a cloud of dissipating dust, he roars in, fresh from blasting through the cosmos, ready to change all of their lives. Complete with jeans, boots, hair and muttonchops swept back from cosmic winds, and muscles like ropes, he looks like he could take on any sorrow and wrestle it into submission. And he’s wielding a magic box that makes anything that goes into it disappear forever…
Welcome to the Venus Motel, where a million stars dance above the neon and things are almost never what they seem.
With a cast of characters including a blues-playing magician biker, a broken singer running away from her past, a couple of down-and-out crooks, a lovelorn cowboy, and a famous author drowning his demons in a bottle of rum, Venus Sings the Blues is vivid, quirky ride into the desert Southwest. Like all of Buck Storm’s stories, it’s full of humor and depth, and takes a lyrical look at God’s love and his pursuit of man in a style reminiscent of an engaging blend of Jimmy Buffet and Gabriel García Márquez.
