Aunty Ida's Full-Service Mental Institution (by Invitation Only) is offbeat, quirky light sci-fi, but best of all, today (March 2) it's free until 11:59 p.m. Pacific, or some time in the middle of the night or early morning wherever you are.
Please download a copy, and I hope you enjoy. Aunty Ida wants you to. But not in a creepy way, she'd be quick to add if I hadn't made her up.

Henna is the daughter of a dark god and a mortal mother in the days before the great flood. Even as she journeys towards redemption, the darkness within her awaits its release.

A prophet named Peleg is the immortal leader of a small group of heroes known as The Faction. He has battled since the days of Noah, through the eras of the Prophets and the Crusades, right up to modern times . but time is running out for monsters, demons, and heroes alike.
As No is recruited by Peleg to join The Faction, he is introduced to a secret world beyond his wildest dreams; from teammates with amazing powers and mysterious origins to an enemy as old as the Tower of Babel.

Peleg must shape No into a man of courage and character to prepare him for the approaching battle.

If you're into this kind of thing, let me also suggest this film, which runs only 1hr 7 mins, which I saw this past weekend and got a few good laughs from:
The Phoenix Tapes '97 (2016)
You can stream it for free via Amazon Prime.
I was hoping at least that the publisher would have the sense not to use any DRM. However:
http://www.amazon.com/Fahrenheit-451-ebook/dp/B0064CPN7I/
Disallows the text-to-speech function. I could understand the e-book being made available DRM-free for more open e-book readers, but putting it on the locked-in, DRM-fested ecosystem of the Kindle is just... meh.
That said, the article's quote that "any new deal would include e-book rights" is silly. Bradbury could have easily found a dozen publishers that would be happy to keep printing copies of Fahrenheit 451 without any e-book deal involved.
edit: though the audiobook version at Audible.com has plenty of DRM around it already anyway, so ...
I just wrapped up a few minutes ago. It was a pretty great adventure book but I have a soft spot for telekinesis so I might be a little biased.
You might also be interested in River of Teeth coming out later this month. https://smile.amazon.com/gp/aw/d/B01MRJW3OS/
It regularly makes the rounds of the streaming services. I watched a few eps I believe on Netflix a few years back. I think that Hulu has it right now. The complete series is also available on DVD at a pretty economical cost.

Drunk Alien Menace
> When the aliens finally showed up it wasn’t what people had expected.
> “People of Earth...” crackled a voice over a loudspeaker.
> No one had noticed the ship descending from the sky. It made noise as it floated down towards a city’s zoo, but the sound was so similar to a 747 that people dismissed it. When the speaker came on the ship was almost on top of a crowd, and the people screamed and sprinted to get out of the way, though not everyone made it. The ship landed clumsily on top of a penguin exhibit and settled there, huge and black and cold as its engines whined down. Crumbs of concrete seeped out from under it as the exhibit was pulverized under the ship’s immense weight.
> “People of Earth,” the speaker continued, “we’ve been drinking. And we’ve come to say we never liked you.”
A single giant alien then wades into the crowd and pulverizes each person he sees.
Once he's finished, the aliens leave, but promise to return in one year and beat up every single person on the planet. The Earth, shocked and stunned, realizes they need to come up with some form of spectacular defense before the aliens come back, but what they create to protect them may be more dangerous than the threat it's meant to solve.
