Paperback. Book Two "A Wild Ride Through Chaos, Courage, and Just Enough WeirdnessThis book is like if The Hunger Games went to an art school, took a philosophy class, and then joined a late-night comedy show. It's dark, clever, and somehow still manages to make you laugh right after making you cringe at humanity. I loved the unpredictable mix of animals, politics, and poetic absurdity. It's the kind of story where karma wears steel-toed boot, and you can't look away. Disturbing, hilarious, and weirdly hopeful." "Gripping and RelevantThis book masterfully blends sharp social commentary with dark, unforgettable fantasy. It pits hope against cruelty in a world frighteningly close to ours. The vivid characters and moral complexity stay with you, challenging your views long after. A brilliant, unsettling story that's as thought-provoking as it is beautifully crafted." "Brutal Satire That Hits Too Close to HomeBook two escalates everything that made the first installment compelling and uncomfortable. Following young Daniela in the hostile territory of Cutter City, Goldsholl doesn't pull punches in depicting a dystopian America where white nationalism runs rampant and mass shootings barely make news. The satirical portraits of politicians and commissioners are grotesquely funny yet chillingly recognizable. While the fantasy elements with the Deor factions continue to drive the plot, it's the unflinching social commentary that makes this both a gripping read and a mirror to our current reality." "muy buenoReviewed in SpainAn even more intense and courageous second part. Goldsholl raises the bar with a perfect blend of dark fantasy and social criticism. Cutter City is a brutal reflection of modern reality: racism, violence, and political manipulation. Harsh, intelligent, and deeply human. A reading that makes you uncomfortable. and awakens you." [translation from Spanish] Marlene Narrow of Vegan Nation aired an interview with me on her radio show. The podcast can be downloaded at: The Children have arrived and are being hunted. The first Child, Samuel Eli Jackson, is-for now-safely living in a cottage on the edge of the Motherland. The second Child, Daniela Esperanza, is currently parentless, and being raised by an elderly retired nun in the heart of Cutter City, which is the Killapaka domain, and the headquarters of Boner's America First, Last, and In-Between Militia, legally organized under the name, "The Unidentified and Incognito P Company, LLC ("The Pee Company"). The Pee Company has already "disappeared" Dani's parents, and the color of the little girl's skin has put a target on her back. Not to mention that there are so many daily mass shootings in Cutter City, those events rarely get news coverage.There is hope. A small group of people hope to snatch Dani from under the nose of the powerful Kills and General Rex Boner, the Pee Company leader.This is a complex fantasy, with a - surprisingly! - happy ending. Karma is, after all, just.The trilogy is a dark, epic fantasy, with animals as its focus. This item is printed on demand.

- Libro 2 de 3: Everything’s Better with Bacon, and You Can Never Have Enough Butter (But Then Along Comes Karma…) THE FIRST CHILD
We live in a world where loving some animals and consuming others is considered perfectly reasonable. We cradle dogs, adore cats, and scroll endlessly through cute animal videos — while rarely questioning the systems that confine, exploit, and slaughter billions of equally sentient beings. Why? Because it’s tradition? Because it’s convenient? Because “that’s just how it is”?
In The Other Child, the moral lines we take for granted begin to blur. Through fictionalized depictions of factory farming and a world that slowly reveals its own contradictions, the story asks uncomfortable questions:
- What if the hierarchy we place on species were turned on us?
- What if karma wasn’t abstract, but personal?
- Who decides which lives matter?
- How do ordinary people become complicit?
If you’ve ever loved an animal…
If you’ve ever questioned the status quo…
If you’re willing to sit with discomfort in order to examine truth…
Book 2 deepens the moral and emotional stakes of the series and continues the exploration of how humans justify the unjustifiable.
“A Bold, Unforgettable Dive into a Chaotic Dystopian World –This isn’t just another dystopian tale—it’s a sharp, satirical collision of humor, heartbreak, and sharp cultural insight. Goldsholl blends political critique, surreal elements, and off-beat wit with a confidence that makes the story feel both unpredictable and strangely grounded. Despite its darkness, there’s a current of hope that keeps you turning pages. It’s the kind of book that lingers in your mind, nudging you to think long after you’ve finished reading.”
“Dark, Bold, and Brilliantly Satirical – …a wild, thought-provoking ride through a dystopian America that feels uncomfortably close to reality…. A smart, fearless continuation of a truly original series.”
“An even more intense and courageous second part. Goldsholl raises the bar with a perfect blend of dark fantasy and social criticism. Cutter City is a brutal reflection of modern reality: racism, violence, and political manipulation. Harsh, intelligent, and deeply human. A reading that makes you uncomfortable... and awakens you.”
