Publisher's summary

Jules Burnside is a hipster barista who monologues about indie music and participates in riots more to destroy property than effect civil justice.

Nephi Jensen is a young Latter-Day Saint who believes God called him to be a superhero to deliver sandwiches to the homeless.

Eldon Glenn is a big-headed lawyer who seeks election as city commissioner in a backwater Kentucky town by pandering to the locals with promises of bringing a drive-through window—staffed with singing and dancing dwarfs—to the local Wal-Mart supercenter.

To bolster their online presence and further their personal agendas, Jules, Nephi, and Eldon unwittingly join a social media platform—conceived by tech savvy Lilac Bassett and her associates—to incite conflict based on political identity, inducing users to challenge each other in a physically violent sport.

The social media platform and sport soon spiral out of control with violence, destruction, and mayhem.

Top-Notch Religious/Political Satire

In my opinion, the fantastically clever “Sliding Off” launches its author, Alejandro del Mar, to the prestigious position of a modern-day Jonathan Swift.
