The ISIS Affair: Putting the Fun Back in Fundamentalism

By David Rich

It’s a Mad, Mad World + Ishtar + Raiders of the Lost Ark = The ISIS Affair
Meet the most unlikely outlaws – two backpacking curmudgeons. One is a crotchety Brit, and the other is an ancient American.
When they attempt to smuggle priceless world heritage antiquities to safety, they find themselves in the crosshairs of none other than ISIS.
Their best-laid plans are thwarted by the hapless smugglers themselves. If not for a Yazidi Joan of Arc, these gents may not survive at all.
Sit back, relax, and enjoy this black comedy and satire on religion and nationalism that puts the fun back in fundamentalism.

I really enjoyed this hilarious, wild, chaotic, laugh out loud funny satire. Two old men are chased by ISIS as they wander across Syria. If you need a break from these trying times, or just a good laugh, READ THIS BOOK!
