Scott Stein’s latest novel, The Great American Deception, received a starred review from Publisher’s Weekly, which said, “Sure to appeal to fans of Douglas Adams, this zany, uproarious mystery is a constant delight.” He is the author of two other novels as well as short satire and fiction in such places as The Oxford University Press Humor Reader and McSweeney’s. Scott is a professor of English at Drexel University.
