Andrew Shaffer writes comic fiction and parody that often places public figures or familiar genres into absurd situations. Hope Never Dies imagines Joe Biden and Barack Obama as amateur detectives investigating a suspicious death, beginning the Obama Biden Mysteries, while How to Survive a Sharknado and Other Unnatural Disasters treats deliberately ridiculous film scenarios as practical hazards. He has also written humorous nonfiction about popular culture and relationships. Shaffer's prose is brisk, referential and joke-led rather than realistic. Useful catalogue terms include political parody, comic mysteries, pop-culture humour and light genre spoofs. Read more Less
