Kindle Pick of the Week: Mart of Darkness

The CEO of AllMart, the world's largest chain of discount stores, has become unhinged and the feds send a team of ultra-deep special forces to stop him. This gritty, genre-bashing, darkly-comic dystopian/sci-fi/thriller mashup takes you on a hallucinogenic carnival ride through the company's flagship store that covers an ever-expanding swath of southern Ohio. Told through the horrified eyes of K, an office temp who has accidentally been recruited for his "special skills," Mart of Darkness pits the team against feral live-in shoppers, morality-free executives and quantum technology that threatens to collapse the global economy. K is in way over his head and can't find a way out.

Join him as he crosses the Videocean, passes through the Great Gates of Giardiniera and gains a lasting appreciation for early Native American hunting practices. Chug an energy drink, don't expect cell phone service inside, and climb on for the ride!

A great read by Phil Granchi.

Walmart Prime?

Walmart Inc. plans to launch Walmart+, its competitor to Amazon.com Inc.'s Prime service, this month for $98 per year, with perks such as same-day delivery, discounts on fuel at Walmart gas stations and early access to deals, multiple sources said. The coronavirus pandemic delayed the subscription service's original late March or April launch, and it's unclear whether the program will initially be rolled out regionally or nationally.

We'll see and worth a watch!
