These are the adventures of Sam, Jake and Dylan, three degenerate losers who live together on the 42nd floor of Hazy Towers, the worst apartment block in the known universe. At least their landlord, Mr Hayes, is such a spineless weasel of a man that they have never had to pay a single cent of rent. Still, government handouts only buy so much toast, and the boys are always on the lookout for a crazy way to make a buck.
In Episode One – Black Market Prawns – Jake strikes a deal with a dodgy mariner to acquire one tonne of illegal prawns. Sounds like a good way to earn some coin, but during the height of Summer, and without adequate refrigeration, the race is on to offload the goods before the funk really settles in.
Sam, Jake and Dylan Want Money is written by Australian comedian and fantasy author Sam Bowring, whose other books include the Broken Well trilogy (‘the stuff of fantasy writer’s fantasies’ – AurealisXpress), and the Strange Threads duology (‘utterly mesmerising – Courier Mail).
