As for me, I've been reading...

Only an Alligator and The Velocity Gospel, Accomplice, Books 1 & 2 by Steve Aylett (Victor Gollancz, trade, 2001 & May 2002 respectively, UK)

   Barny Juno is an average guy who has inadvertently drawn the unwanted attention of a powerful demon. Trouble is, Barny, being average, isn't the sharpest pencil in the box and so he's only vaguely aware of this little difficulty. But then, he's got bigger problems than vengeful demons; he's got trouble with his love life. And his job at he sorting office. Oh, and his home full of vicious predators (yes, including an alligator) is viewed as a threat by his neighbours. As is he. In fact, the corrupt mayor is basing his re-election campaign on turning the citizens of Accomplice against Barny. Demons from hell? Barny Juno is far too busy to worry about them!
   If you've read any of Aylett's Beerlight stories or novels, then you'll have a sense of what you'll be in for with Accomplice. If you haven't yet been exposed to Aylett's satirical surrealism, I strongly encourage you to give it a whirl; you may hate it utterly, but then you may bust a gut for laughing. Accomplice claims to be "the literary equivalent of digging a shallow hole, doing a headstand in it and claiming you're wearing the world as a hat." I'd say it's more like the literary equivalent of doing acid while on a tour of a foreign sanitarium. Never a dull moment on this trip.
