Oddjobs
Unstoppable horrors from beyond are poised to invade and literally create Hell on Earth.
It’s the end of the world as we know it, but someone still needs to do the paperwork.
Morag Murray works for the secret government organisation responsible for making sure the apocalypse goes as smoothly and as quietly as possible.
Trouble is, Morag’s got a temper problem and, after angering the wrong alien god, she’s been sent to another city where she won’t cause so much trouble.
But Morag’s got her work cut out for her. She has to deal with a man-eating starfish, solve a supernatural murder and, if she’s got time, prevent her own inevitable death.
Oddjobs 2: This time it's Personnel
The Venislarn. Vastly intelligent aliens from another dimension or dribbling insane gods from a distant realm? It’s impossible to tell. What’s certain is that they’re here and they’re going to destroy our world.
But, hey, there’s no mileage to be gained from telling the kiddywinks that monsters are real.
Morag Murray is one of the god appeasers, an end of life carer for an oblivious planet, keeping everything calm and under wraps until the day the world ends.
But in the city someone’s buying souls and dealing the kind of magical drugs that guarantee a really bad trip and, if Morag doesn’t do something about it, the end of the world might just happen a lot sooner than anyone planned.
Oddjobs 3: You Only Live Once
The earth has been invaded by terrors from another dimension and the government is doing its best to pretend nothing is happening.
But you can’t keep an alien invasion hidden forever.
Rod Campbell — former SAS soldier and now the first line of defence against the Venislarn horde — has been instructed to work with a Hollywood film company on a movie that will introduce the Venislarn to the viewing public. But he’s already got enough on his hands.
Gods are demanding human sacrifices, renegade Venislarn are seeking asylum on earth and there’s a magical teapot that says the city is facing imminent destruction. It’s going to be a tough week and Rod might not live to see the end of it.
