If you have been wondering what happened to Dave Johnson - author of NuTSR's "Star Frontiers New Genesis", documented racist, and all around nice guy - boy do we have some news for you.

Earlier today, the DHSM posted this on Facebook, along with an Amazon link, for a book called "The Musings of Lord George the Younger, B. S. of D.".

If you can't read the footer, the photo is "Duke Justin of Wilmington". Yes, really.

(Not posting Amazon link)

The synopsis reads like an AI wrote it. This is direct from the Amazon listing.

Sure enough the author is "D Johnson". We couldn't tell at first because the synopsis doesn't have all the trademark red alerts that are found in other works by the author.

And if there was any doubt, Justin confirms it by adding a review... going all in on his loving support of a thoroughly documented white supremacist and all around terrible person.

BTW, congrats everyone! We're "conspirators" now!

And this is what I find most comical: this is officially the first unique product (in other words, not a product acquired from NuTSR's remnants) published by Justin's new company "OSR Games LLC".

it's worth noting that this product has nothing to do with any game.

So at first I was going to buy it... but, oh look, it's available for free with Kindle Unlimited (which I have)!

Now, if you're looking for a thorough review of this product, I'm not doing that. It's not that I don't want to, it's that I...just... CAN'T DO THIS.

I tried to read through it, I really did, but it's just so mind numbing I'm afraid I won't survive it.

There's a song in it. I will spare you the details, but it's... not great.

Most of the art is from Pixabay, which means it's 99% AI generated by proxy because that's what Pixabay has become.

At first I thought the text might be AI generated, but I'm not so sure. It's bad enough to be AI, but it's also bad enough to be DaveJ's best work.

I'll be honest, it's not as bad as DaveJ's past "ASSCO" work. I admit I haven't read the whole thing, but I didn't see any case where he provides a detailed description of a woman's breasts.

And no sex scenes, although his maid does hit on him by page 10.

Oh, did I mention the main character, Lord George, is named after DaveJ (his legal name is George David Johnson)? I can only assume Eliza is his wife, and Duke Justin is, well, Justin.

It's also really clear to me that Dave has a bit of a crush on Justin.

And remember the book title? "B. S. of D."? Yeah, I have yet to find anywhere where the book says what those letters mean.

This is one of my favorite pages. Yeah, that's all that's on the page.

According to the text, Lord George's interests are, in order:

1) women
2) making sausages

I wish I was making that up. And, no, that second one's not a euphemism. He literally does that.

I will leave you with my favorite image, copied directly from the book, presented here with no further commentary because there isn't any commentary in the book either.
