DJ Ass Maggots, a pseudonym for a physician practicing internal medicine with an emphasis on geriatric care, announced today the release of his second book, "Poseidon's Tunnel," to audiences worldwide. The book features characters introduced in Ass Maggots' debut, trailblazing book "Quickies!," published in 2013. "Poseidon's Tunnel" continues the often cryptic flash fiction of "Quickies!," reflecting the author's dysfunctional personal relationships and our dystopian, attention-deficit society.

Ass Maggots' college classmate and now attorney, Eli Kitt, describes the books as "a tour de force, incorporating drug-fueled escapades told through a pseudo-fictional background beat, coursing through the veins of this inspirational figure living the anti-American dream. He is a doctor who took too much acid, managed to keep his money, somehow avoided rehab, and was bored enough to write a book."

"This suspenseful second book is going to produce a zombie army of sleep-deprived readers," said one of the author's medical colleagues. "Ass Maggots' astonishing talent and popularity are bar none. We've long wished we could clone him!"

"Poseidon's Tunnel" has also garnered additional praise in Kirkus Reviews. When asked to comment on the review and literary praise, Ass Maggots said, "Like the STD in my blood stream, take a risk and let this message go viral."

"Poseidon's Tunnel" is Ass Maggots' first book to offer Quick Response Code (QR Code), a matrix barcode that expands the reading experience by sending readers directly to music clips that Ass Maggots curated. The QR codes keep the book up-to-the-minute and offer an interactive element to the viewing experience. The book includes more than 16 secret messages.

"Poseidon's Tunnel" is available through bookstores nationwide, Amazon.com, for download from the iTunes Store and on Ass Maggots' website: www.djassmaggots.com. The book is also available as an audio book at Audible.com.
