Lagos, Life and Sexual Distraction is a collection of 12 short stories, mostly focused on the distinct character of life in Lagos--the commercial capital of Nigeria--but with two stories dedicated to the very different plight of people living in northern Nigeria, which suffers attacks from the Islamist insurgency Boko Haram. The book attempts to teleport the reader to Africa, to experience what an average Nigerian does to keep his or her dreams, hopes and aspirations alive. It also shows the tensions that exist between the generations, between the sexes and between different social classes and ethnicities.

Reina è un'immortale spietata nata con un grande potere che l'ha resa preda del Signore degli Inferi, che per poterla catturare scatena un'epica battaglia distruggendo ogni cosa a lei più cara. Reina miracolosamente sopravvissuta all'attacco, ha portato avanti in silenzio la sua battaglia contro l'Inferno, ma quando in una notte di caccia ai demoni il suo destino si intreccia con quello di Sam, un angelo guerriero attraente e misterioso, la vita della donna viene stravolta. Un oscuro segreto da secoli sepolto nel passato torna a galla spazzando via ogni sua certezza. Nella lotta contro demoni e mostri che cercheranno di trascinarla all'Inferno in ogni modo, Reina e Sam proveranno a far sopravvivere il loro sentimento, che nonostante una passione ardente e sfrenata sembra ormai destinato a finire.

"Nous sommes en 1977. Le drame est consommé ! À partir de cette époque là, j'aurais bien du mal à ne plus lever les yeux au simple son d'un moteur d'avion. C'est donc ainsi qu'à la fin de mes études (un bac technique... Je ne me suis pas trop foulé), je me dirigeais vers la base aérienne de Nîmes Courbessac pour y commencer ma formation de sous-officiers..."Le drame tel que l'évoque Laurent THOMAS est en réalité une bien belle épopée, à la fois aérienne et humaine. De son premier métier de Choumac à celui de pilote de Transall, Laurent THOMAS en a vécu des rencontres, des (més)aventures, des vols agités et d'autres extatiques. Ce qui donne à ce parcours atypique sa cohérence ? Une curiosité insatiable pour tout ce qui vole. Aujourd'hui Laurent THOMAS a rejoint le groupe Airbus en tant qu'instructeur sur simulateur. Il travaille aussi au développement de programmes de formation. Installé en région toulousaine, il continue à sillonner les airs à bord de son cher coach jaune... et a coucher sur le papier ses moments de lévitation.
