The Man With a Spare Room in His Head

Fifty-year-old council worker Brian Price didnt know he had a spare room in his head so it came as a complete surprise when Gordlyn a fifth-dimensional entity from Al Nur took up residence.The Al Nurians were once similar to humans but ascended to the fifth dimension and became energy beings. You might think this means they are enlightened. Unfortunately for Brian Price they are not. The Al Nur race is racked by infighting and petty squabbling and worst of all they use earthlings to help resolve their differences. Engaging Daints - Al Nurians who can cohabit within a human brain - they play chess-like games using other beings like humans as their pawns.Poor Brian didnt want a lodger taking up room in his head. He didnt want to be part of the hilarious rollercoaster ride his life became. He certainly didnt want to be beaten up committed responsible for riots and strikes or to become an accidental hero.He just wanted life to be easy to enjoy some true love and a little rumpty tumpty. But his life was not that simple. The Al Nur had other plans for him and all he could do was hold on to his hat and try not to lose his sanity!Laugh-out-loud funny. L.J. HolgateREVIEWSA friend of mine suggested this book and Im so glad he did. The plot is refreshingly different from other books Ive read which in turn adds to the unpredictability of the storyline as it unfolds. The characters are wonderfully crafted and the author skilfully introduces a diverse group drawn together by circumstances none would have envisaged. The drama builds and is interspersed with humour which had me laughing out loud. I found it hard to put the book down as I just had to turn to the next page. L.J. HolgateDavid Hodges latest book The Man with a Spare Room in His Head is an eminently captivating novel.
