New Dead Man Out Now!

On the road to Fargo, North Dakota, Matt Cahill is trapped in a hellacious blizzard on a frozen, traffic-choked interstate. He's stalked by an escaped murderer and the guards who were transporting him--all of them seemingly possessed by a mutant virus that spreads quickly among the others trapped in their cars, turning everyone into crazed zombies. Matt struggles with a small band of survivors to find the source of the horrific plague before it claims them all. The odds are against any of them surviving the night....and that includes Mr. Dark.

Coming July 1, 2013.

Lots of fireworks in this one, folks.  Had a great time writing this book and these characters.  If you liked Deployed, you'll see more military action here.

Having grown up in the foster system, Private Pike Morgan’s rough exterior and problem with authority earn him few friends among his fellow Marines. When he’s not on missions for the Marine Reserve, Pike’s rebellious attitude and eagerness for vigilante justice have the local police regularly at his doorstep. Struggling to set down roots, and nervous of his desire to, Pike’s eager to answer the military’s call for another mission.

On a peacekeeping mission to Afghanistan, Pike and his squad soon find themselves entrenched in a heated war zone. After an American journalist is kidnapped by known terrorist Zalmai Yaqub, the whereabouts of this al Qaeda leader become a top priority for the American military. But when Yaqub flees to Pakistan, will anyone aid Pike in his hunt, or will this strong Marine find himself without an ally?

Tier Zero

Hank Brown’s Tier Zero is old school action adventure pulp like the books Pinnacle was publishing back in the 1970s and 1980s.  Those books pretty much died out in the 1980s when guys like Sylvester Stallone, Arnold Schwarzenegger, and Bruce Willis started hitting the big screen with their testosterone laden blowouts because it was easier to watch a VHS tape than read a book.

But the appetite for those action movies has never completely died out.  A look at the current crop of movies reveals that present day audiences still enjoy them.  Strangely enough, those same action stars of the 1980s have also made a return to the big screen, older and packing more heat than ever!

The setup in the book is very familiar to anyone in the venue.  I slipped right into the narrative as we’re introduced to the Bad Guys (despicable, actually) and the Big Mistake they make (kidnapping one of our hero’s daughter/niece).  From there we moved right into getting to know the heroes as the team begins to assemble and the mission gets laid out.

Brown doesn’t cover any new ground in his novel, but he doesn’t intend to.  This is a salute to the books that shaped him as a writer, a tour de force of the kind of fiction he grew up on and still enjoys.  Sure, the writing creaks a bit here and there, but the action gets really big and the pacing is a marathon that turns into a sprint at the finish.

Covers That Sell Books

I love military historical novels (Bernard Cornwell and others) and when I saw these covers, I picked up these books immediately.  Now I gotta find time to read them.

Wonder Bread

Ever since Hostess went bankrupt, my 15 year old has been whining.  He's not fretting over Twinkies, which so many people began hoarding (good thing they have a shelf life of, well, forever).  He's been complaining that all the other breads we've bought just haven't been the same as Wonder Bread.

Truthfully, I have to agree with him.  They haven't been the same.  Admittedly, I strayed from Wonder Bread occasionally when trying other breads to spice up sandwiches, but there's something about putting one of those colorful packages in your shopping cart that always made life feel somehow happier.

All these years and I never questioned why the loaves were packaged as they were with the red, yellow, and blue dots.  I just figured they were balloons and let it go at that.  Turns out I was right -- they are balloons.  Elmer Cline, the vice president for merchandising back in 1921, saw the International Balloon Race at the Indianapolis Motor Speedway and used the imagery on the packaging.

The Wonder Bread brand, as well as other brands, have been recently acquired by Flowers Foods (Mrs. Freshley's and Tastykake) and will hopefully be back on the shelves soon.  I know Chandler will be relieved, even though now we've discovered that bread in general is the new "crack."

New Today!

I love Parker's Westerns.  Even though he's gone now, this is a new book in his Virgil Cole and Everett Hitch series, written by Robert Knott, who co-authored the movie version of Appaloosa, which is a very fine film starring Ed Harris and Viggo Mortenson.  I really recommend the books to any reader who likes entertaining stories, not just Westerns.

For years, Virgil Cole and Everett Hitch have ridden roughshod over rabble-rousers and gun hands in troubled towns like Appaloosa, Resolution, and Brimstone. Now, newly appointed as Territorial Marshalls, they find themselves traveling by train through the Indian Territories. Their first marshaling duty starts out as a simple mission to escort Mexican prisoners to the border, but when the Governor of Texas, his wife and daughters climb aboard with their bodyguards and $500,000 in tow, their journey suddenly becomes a lot more complicated.

The problem is Bloody Bob Brandice. He and Virgil have had it out before, an encounter that left Brandice face-down in the street with two .44 slugs lodged in him. Now, twelve years later on a night train struggling uphill in a thunderstorm, Brandice is back – and he’s not alone. Cole and Hitch find themselves in the midst of a heist with a horde of very bad men, two beautiful young hostages, and a man with a vendetta he’s determined to carry out.

Military SF Series Debut!

Picking up a Steve Perry book is a no-brainer to me.  I always enjoy his stuff, and this looks like the beginning of a good run.

At the close of the 24th Century, a series of revolutions has caused the galaxy to descend into chaos. With the Galactic Union’s Army stretched thin, mercenary units have arisen for those who have the need—and the means—to hire them…

Captained by former Detached Guerrilla Forces Colonel R.A. “Rags” Cutter, the Cutter Force Initiative is one of the best. A specialized team consisting of both aliens and humans, the Cutters offer services ranging from fight training and protection to extraction and assassination—as long as the target deserves it and their employer makes good on payday.

When they’re hired to find and rescue Indira, the soon-to-be-married daughter of the Rajah Ramal of New Mumbai, the teams’ first task is to identify the kidnapper. The obvious suspects are insurgents who want to overthrow the rajanate, but as other forces enter the game and an assassination attempt is made on Ramal, the Cutters realize that their in-and-out extraction job is about to get a lot more interesting—and a lot more lethal…

And for those of you who want to listen...

I really enjoy Lee Child's Jack Reacher novels, and was surprised to discover my wife likes them too.  The books are inventive and surprising, and Reacher is just my kind of guy -- tough, loyal, and a thinker.

So when I discovered Tom Cruise was going to play him in the movies (Cruise being nearly a foot shorter than Reacher's 6'5"), I wasn't too keen on seeing the film.

However, I took two of my sons and went shortly after New Year's.  We first tried to go on New Year's (big mistake) and the movie was sold out, so we hung out at Best Buy for a bit and ate at What-a-Burger.  I'm not a dad to let a moment with his kids go wasted.

When we did see the film, I had a really good time.  It was Reacher, yet it wasn't.  Cruise just didn't have the physical prowess I expected from Reacher, but the actor brought a tremendous amount of intensity.  He had the right kind of look, the quiet reserve of Reacher, the cutting-edge quips and quotes delivered with deadpan accuracy.  I think one of the things in a Reacher book that really sets the tone is the villain, and there were a few nice ones in this one.

Overall, the movie felt like two hours and twenty minutes.  The pacing was solid and engaging, but you had time to think.  A lot of times an action film will just blow you through it (any of the Transformers movies comes to mind, but I couldn't tell you exactly what was going on at any one time), but Jack Reacher pulls you along at a steady pace.  I enjoyed the clinical way Reacher dissects the investigation, how he gets there one step ahead of everyone else.  Of course, Reacher has the author and the scriptwriter in his pocket, but the story was laid out well enough that I was right there with Reacher, figuring things out.  There is a nice either/or twist at the end that's well done and had me hanging by my fingernails event though I'd figured most everything else out -- which I think you're supposed to do to properly enjoy the film.

My favorite line in the move is (close, I think):  I'm going to beat you to death and drink your blood from a boot."  Can't say how long I've waited for an action hero to say that.

I also watched Expendables 2 earlier this year and had a good time with it.  Yeah, I'm pretty easy to please.  But it's interesting matching up Jack Reacher as an action film versus Expendables 2.  They're really apples and oranges.  Sylvester Stallone and his crew chew through scenery and are a hoot to watch, but Cruise manages to bring you into the world of Jack Reacher and make the whole story more personal.

I hope this is the start of a new franchise for Lee Child and Cruise because I'd definitely like to see another Jack Reacher movie.

Black Sun Reich: Part One of three in The Spear of Destiny, the first novel in a new steampunk, horror, alternate history, action-adventure series set in a 1920s where the Nazis have begun their subjugation of the world using the occult, advanced science, and a holy relic with awesome powers.

And don’t miss the other parts of this serialized novel - Part Two: Death’s Head Legion and Part Three: Shadows Will Fall.

Trey Garrison recaptures the unapologetic adventure, wonder and excitement of the classic pulp fiction of the 1930s and 1940s, blending elements of steampunk with deeply-researched historical fiction and a good dose of humor. The novel also explores major philosophical and moral issues relevant to our contemporary world: the trade-off between security and liberty, the morality of pre-emptive war, and what fundamentally separates good from evil.

The North American continent is made up of several rival nations, and a Cold War is building between them. The Nazis rose to power a decade earlier. People travel by airship and powerful organizations calculate with Babbage’s Difference Engine. The Nazis have hatched a plot to raise a legion of undead soldiers.

Enter Sean Fox Rucker, Jesus D’Anconia Lago, two Great War veterans and freelance pilots who are pulled into the quest. They are joined by a brash Greek merchant, a brilliant Jewish cowboy, and the woman who once broke Rucker’s heart. This ragtag band of reluctant, bickering, swashbuckling heroes soon is locked in a globe-spanning race against Nazi occultists, clockwork assassins, and a darkly charismatic commando. In a world where science and the supernatural co-exist, and the monsters of legend are as real necromancers who summon them from dark realms, our heroes alone stand before the rising darkness. But all their efforts may not be enough.

Tales of the Scrimshaw Doll

 

 

 

ROMANCE WITH A TOUCH OF SUPERNATURAL

 

Time has not been kind to me. I once was very beautiful. I once was cherished.

Now?

I’m a scrimshaw doll. I was created for a child and cursed to protect a woman. I’ve been protecting those seeking true love well before 1716 when my story began being recorded. It all began with a gypsy man named Enzo, and his wife Rosa, whom I was made in the memory of.

I have been many places and seen many countries. I have traveled by ship, horse and automobile.

Read about the adventures here.

Newest book:

 

 

 Sometimes, secrets refuse to stay buried--

A ten-year-old accidental killing and an ancient cursed doll are only part of Julia Bennett's problems. When she returns to her hometown of Covington, Oklahoma for an old friend's funeral, she's thrust into the middle of a murder case--and discovers she never stopped loving her high school sweetheart.

Jake Devlin is now the sheriff of Covington and faced with solving a murder. He isn't surprised to find Julia in the middle of things. She still seems like the troublemaker whose reckless mistake caused a man's death years ago--and who broke his heart when she left him without so much as a goodbye.

Jake makes it clear he's over her, and Julia can't wait to leave Covington behind. But when another friend dies, she knows she must stay. Can they put the past behind them and stop a killer before he claims another victim?

New Wind River Book!

 

Been so busy with deadlines and college that I plumb missed this one.  Making up for it now.  This is by my buddy James Reasoner (one of the writers on the Rancho Diablo series) and his wife.  It's the seventh book in their long-running Wind River series.

 

The Wyoming Territory town of Wind River has gotten so peaceful that some people think it's downright civilized. But they don't know that a gang of vicious outlaws is planning a military-style raid on the settlement that will clean out the bank and the other businesses. Anyone who gets in their way will be cut down in a hail of bullets.

Through a twist of fate, a beautiful young woman finds herself taken prisoner by the outlaws, and it's up to Marshal Cole Tyler and Texas cowboy Lon Rogers to pursue the desperadoes and rescue Brenda Durand . . . if they don't wind up on the receiving end of some outlaw lead first!

RANSOM VALLEY is a brand-new 42,000 word novel from award-winning authors James Reasoner and L.J. Washburn. It's the first new entry in more than a decade in the bestselling Wind River series and is filled with the same blend of action, humor, drama, and compelling characters as the first six novels. If you haven't paid a visit to Wind River yet, now's the time!

 

 

 

Caught My Eye

 

Don't get yourself noticed and you won't get yourself hanged.

In the faery slums of Bath, Bartholomew Kettle and his sister Hettie live by these words. Bartholomew and Hettie are changelings--Peculiars--and neither faeries nor humans want anything to do with them.

One day a mysterious lady in a plum-colored dress comes gliding down Old Crow Alley. Bartholomew watches her through his window. Who is she? What does she want? And when Bartholomew witnesses the lady whisking away, in a whirling ring of feathers, the boy who lives across the alley--Bartholomew forgets the rules and gets himself noticed.

First he's noticed by the lady in plum herself, then by something darkly magical and mysterious, by Jack Box and the Raggedy Man, by the powerful Mr. Lickerish . . . and by Arthur Jelliby, a young man trying to slip through the world unnoticed, too, and who, against all odds, offers Bartholomew friendship and a way to belong.

Part murder mystery, part gothic fantasy, part steampunk adventure, "The Peculiar" is Stefan Bachmann's riveting, inventive, and unforgettable debut novel.

King of the Dead

 

One of my writer buddies has a new book out Nov. 27.  Love the cover!

 

Joseph Nassise shook up the urban fantasy genre with Eyes to See, a novel New York Times bestselling author Jonathan Maberry called “heartbreaking, deeply insightful, powerful and genuinely thrilling.” In a devil’s deal, Jeremiah Hunt sacrificed his human sight in exchange for the power to see the hidden world of ghosts and all of the darker spirits that prowl the streets. Hunt uncovered a world of murder and magic that took his daughter from him and nearly cost him his life, but that was only the beginning....

Now Hunt is on the run from the FBI, who have pegged him as a mass-murdering dark sorcerer. His flight from the law is diverted to New Orleans when his companion, a potent witch, has a horrific vision of the city under magical siege. When they arrive, they realize that the situation is more dire than they could have imagined: the world of the living faces a terrifying attack by forces from beyond the grave. King of the Dead, the second book in this groundbreaking series, promises more of Nassise’s electrifying writing that will enthrall readers looking for a supercharged, supernatural thrill.
