You'll smile, you'll laugh, you'll cringe, you'll escape to a a weird and strangely stereotyped world.

"The Hitch-hiker's Guide to the Galaxy" meets "Mills & Boon" with a dash of Discworld, a dog-eared 1998 copy of Lonely Planet and a sprinkling of The Spice Girls.

"Cyberchicks go Wild" is a laugh-out-loud, fast-paced romp that goes beyond "satiric fantasy romance satire science fiction comedy". The madcap adventures of a horde of beautiful young women all intent on pursuing the same movie star are woven into a spoof of fanfic, chick lit, bodice-rippers, virtual reality and travel guides. The writing is inventive and witty. The story is riddled with unfeasible stereotypes and the plot zigzags wildly.


At its heart, "Cyberchicks" satirizes the adoration of ordinary fans for their idols of the silver screen. It's a rollicking read, with all the ingredients of a cult classic!

Industry Reviews


An Unstoppable International Adventure

"Cyberchicks Go Wild" picks up where its predecessor left off, catapulting readers into an even more frenzied and uproarious universe. Dwyer's sequel is a whirlwind of humor and cosmic escapades, as the cyberchicks chase their idol with relentless enthusiasm, across a virtual, alternative and comically stereotyped version of the planet Earth.

The book is a masterclass in balancing absurdity with wit, offering a story that is as unpredictable as it is hilarious. The characters, both familiar and new, are sharply depicted, each adding their own unique flair to the chaotic quest. Dwyer's imaginative storytelling is on full display, weaving a tale that is both a delightful parody of fan culture and a standalone triumph in comedic writing. "Cyberchicks Go Wild" is a must-read for those who enjoy a blend of science fiction, humor, and originality.

Outrageously Funny and Wonderfully Whimsical

In "Cyberchicks Go Wild," author Barb Dwyer takes the hilarity and ingenuity of the first book to new heights. This sequel is a rollercoaster ride of laughs and sci-fi adventure, as the cyberchicks continue their pursuit of their movie star hero across the globe. The narrative is rich with witty dialogue, unexpected plot twists, and an engagingly stereotyped array of international settings. Dwyer has the ability to create a universe that is simultaneously outlandish and utterly captivating. The story is a perfect blend of satire, fantasy, and comedy, with characters that are as endearing as they are eccentric. For fans of the first book and newcomers alike, "Cyberchicks Go Wild" is an absolute delight and a perfect pick for anyone who loves their fiction with a generous dose of fun and fantasy.
