Author J. Manfred Weichsel
J. Manfred Weichsel writes satires that fuse adventure, horror, science fiction, and fantasy into some of the most original transgressive literature being published today.
Weichsel began writing short fiction in 2016 with stories that have appeared in some of the biggest titles of the new pulp movement, such as Cirsova Magazine and the Planetary Anthology series.
When the pandemic hit, Weichsel was suddenly jobless, but—thanks to government handouts—making more than he had been when working. He decided to treat his situation as an opportunity, and began writing longer works and learning how to self-publish.
Now a fiercely independent author, J. Manfred Weichsel aims to fulfill the promise of self publishing with works ungoverned by the constraints of traditional publishing houses and the inhibitions of polite society.
Loved by some and hated by others, Weichsel’s funny, unconventional, often grotesque books inhabit a unique space in American literature and will be read, talked about, and debated for generations to come.
J. Manfred Weichsel is the author of The Calydonian Boar Hunt, Not Far from Eden, Jungle Jitters, Five Maidens on the Pentagram, Ebu Gogo, and Tales to Make You Vomit. Scroll down to check them out.

The Calydonian Boar Hunt is an edgy and exciting retelling of the classic Greek myth about heroes hunting a giant boar. It's loaded with action, adventure, and bawdy humor.
Not Far from Eden is a dark fantasy set in primeval earth, based on an ancient myth about angels who rebel against God to have sex with human women. It is a sexy, heartbreaking laugh-out-loud tale full of long-suppressed and forbidden knowledge. Weichsel's books have taken a turn for the weird lately, and this one definitely follows that trend.
Jungle Jitters is a horror adventure about a cult in the Congo that worships the legacy of a real-life Soviet mad scientist who wanted to breed a human-chimpanzee hybrid. It is an exciting, funny, horrifying tale of science gone amok. It also has a few scenes of extreme content that are too much for most people. Weichsel definitely went too far with this one!
Five Maidens on the Pentagram is a Gothic horror sex farce about a satanic wizard who poses as the head doctor at an insane asylum in order to perform a demonic rite. Most of Weichsel's fans say this is his funniest book. You should totally read it. It's a real wild ride.
Ebu Gogo is a crazy jungle adventure about cryptozoologists in an Indonesian rainforest searching for little three to four foot tall humanoid cryptids called Ebu Gogo. It’s Weichsel’s most popular book. It has a lot of disgusting sex and nauseating violence. You're going to love it.
She Was Asking for It is a murder mystery about the depraved sex lives of failed Hollywood actors and actresses. It is so disgusting you probably won't be able to read it without throwing up. Go ahead and give it a try. I dare you.
Kittycat Massacre is about a troubled young girl and boy who run away from home to go live in the woods, only to end up in the house of a deranged woman who tortures and kills cats! It's really gross. It has a lot of cat guts and gore and stuff. It’ll totally make you throw up.
