"McMullen raises the bar of intrigue, your hopes for his kaleidoscope of characters and the main protagonist, The Garbage Boy. Then he dashes your expectations with twists and turns and downward spiraling trajectories for his heroes. What a ride! Chock full of moral questions." - Mike Watson, Author of 'Rise Up'
"In "Garbage Boy," McMullen cheekily references Led Zeppelin's "When the Levee Breaks." But just like the song, prayers and tears won't save Garbage Boy from his predicament. With bigotry, social class stigma, and limited means in their way, the main character and his pals must battle for a better life. Just when you think Garbage Boy is on the rise, McMullen throws a plot twist and breaks the levee. It leaves you hanging, craving more like a Top 40 radio station hungry for hits!" - Howard Kroeger, Kroeger Media-Creator of Adult Hits
