As promised, here is the book trailer for Shane Jones’s Daniel Fights a Hurricane. It’s not on-sale until July 31, but you are fully allowed to watch this trailer obsessively until then.

And maybe you want to enter this contest Shane is hosting (pizza, writing advice… seriously!! When was the last time an author who wasn’t also your college roommate or that person you had a crush on in your flash fiction class did something this cool?) 

“A bewitching new novel… . It’s Jones’s juxtaposition of the fantastical and, say, a woman polishing off a McDonald’s Sausage McMuffin that makes his work feel so unique.”—Mallory Rice, NYLON


Daniel Fights a Hurricane is a wry, beautiful, deeply felt book full of bewitching prose. Shane Jones is a serious player in the world of playfully serious fiction. Better start reading him now.”—Sam Lipsyte, author of Home Land and The Ask


“Shane Jones takes the strands of dreams and reality and combines them so inextricably that it forms the DNA of an entirely new and wonderful species. Daniel Fights a Hurricane is an awe-inspiring novel, and I cannot imagine another author who could create this unique and heartbreaking object.” —Kevin Wilson, author of The Family Fang

Available for pre-order here: Amazon | IndieBound | B&N
