Bob Odenkirk’s career makes absolutely no sense, which is part of the fun.
Comedy Comedy Comedy Drama
Biographies & Memoirs
Our take
Bob Odenkirk’s career makes absolutely no sense, which is part of the fun. Comedy Comedy Comedy Drama follows his path from Chicago comedy clubs to SNL, Mr. Show, Breaking Bad, Better Call Saul, and the deeply confusing but oddly satisfying era where he became an action star. Packed with sharp humor, behind-the-scenes stories, and plenty of self-aware chaos, this memoir is a funny, candid look at reinvention, ambition, and building a career by sheer stubbornness.

About the book
NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER • In this “essential” (Entertainment Weekly), “hilarious” (AV Club) memoir, the star of Mr. Show, Breaking Bad, and Better Call Saul opens up about the highs and lows of showbiz, his cult status as a comedy writer, and what it’s like to reinvent himself as an action film ass-kicker at fifty.
“I can’t think of another entertainer who has improbably morphed so many times, and all through real genius and determination.”—Conan O’Brien
ONE OF THE BEST BOOKS OF THE YEAR: The New Yorker, Vulture, Newsweek
Bob Odenkirk’s career is inexplicable. And yet he will try like hell to explicate it for you. Charting a “Homeric” decades-long “odyssey” from his origins in the seedy comedy clubs of Chicago to a dramatic career full of award nominations—with a side-trip into the action-man world that is baffling to all who know him—it’s almost like there are many Bob Odenkirks! But there is just one and one is plenty.
Bob embraced a life in comedy after a chance meeting with Second City’s legendary Del Close. He somehow made his way to a job as a writer at Saturday Night Live. While surviving that legendary gauntlet by the skin of his gnashing teeth, he stashed away the secrets of comedy writing—eventually employing them in the immortal “Motivational Speaker” sketch for Chris Farley, honing them on The Ben Stiller Show, and perfecting them on Mr. Show with Bob and David.
In Hollywood, Bob demonstrated a bullheadedness that would shame Sisyphus himself, and when all hope was lost for the umpteenth time, the phone rang with an offer to appear on Breaking Bad—a show about how boring it is to be a high school chemistry teacher. His embrace of this strange new world of dramatic acting led him to working with Steven Spielberg, Alexander Payne, and Greta Gerwig, and then, in a twist that will confound you, he re-re-invented himself as a bona fide action star. Why? Read this and do your own psychoanalysis—it’s fun!
Featuring humorous tangents, never-before-seen photos, wild characters, and Bob’s trademark unflinching drive, Comedy Comedy Comedy Drama is a classic showbiz tale told by a determined idiot.

Killed by a freak accident and reborn a century later, Marine Henry Morgan awakens as the governing AI of humanity’s first military starship.
I, Starship
Sci-Fi · First Contact · Space Opera
Our take
Killed by a freak accident and reborn a century later, Marine Henry Morgan awakens as the governing AI of humanity’s first military starship. With no rights and total responsibility, he’s sent to face a growing alien threat. Sharp, fast paced science fiction blends military action with dark humor as a very human mind pilots a very inhuman warship.
Choose your retailer
About the book
As a Marine, Henry Morgan would have said it was more likely he’d die from enemy fire than from being struck by a flying lawnmower while at a baseball game.
But it was the lawnmower that ended up taking him out.
A century later, Henry wakes up as a reconstituted intelligence, and is promptly drafted to be the governing AI for America’s first military starship. After decades of model-trained AIs wreaking havoc across the globe, humanity is ready to try something a little more…human.
Henry is perfect. For one thing, as a reconstituted intelligence, he has no rights and can be forced to do the bidding of the powers that be. For another, he’s the only Heritage Mind™ with any military experience that survived the Great Power Surge of 2072.
So, Henry’s it.
Blastoff, good Henry! Our hopes and dreams go with you. Oh, and while you’re at it, could you take a look at the aliens setting up shop in our asteroid belt? They seem to be…multiplying.

About the book
He made a bet. I became the game.
Sebastian Weaver is everything I hate—cocky, rich, and dangerously charming. The campus heartthrob and star quarterback has girls lining up to worship him. I planned to be the exception. To stay invisible.
But when Sebastian sets his sights on me, resisting becomes impossible. He says he wants a challenge, but this feels like war. Every glance is a trap. Every touch, a dare.
I didn’t mean to play. I didn’t mean to want. But Sebastian unlocks desires I didn’t know I had—twisted, dark fantasies that blur the lines between hate and need.
Now I’m spiraling into a game where obsession is the prize... and losing might just destroy me.
He made a move. I fell harder than I ever expected.
