Three great reviews

In the past week or so I've received three really great reviews on three different ones of my books,
  1. The Eternity Brigade. Reviewer: Frida Fantastic.
  2. Alien Murders. Reviewer: Ficbot.
  3. Tsar Wars. Reviewer: Mark.
It's always nice to get noticed, and even nicer when people say good things about you. Thanks to Frida, Ficbot, and Mark.

New look (and price!) for SCAVENGER HUNT

My sexy space romp Scavenger Hunt has just had a face lift. The content is still the same fun story, a race across the galaxy to visit exotic worlds and acquire strange objects, but the paperback version now sports a gorgeous new wraparound cover (a breathtaking Hubble photo of an area of new star formation). As someone with a love of astronomy, I think it's terrific.

The new price, I hope, is a little sexier, too: $17.99, two dollars off the previous price.

For those unfamiliar with the book's history: When the story was first published by Laser Books in 1976, they thought it was too long to appear in one volume, so they asked me to break it into 2 parts and make each part look like an independent novel. The results were Scavenger Hunt and Finish Line. While the story was still a lot of fun, it wasn't the story I'd originally envisioned. With today's more flexible publishing options, I was able to take out the artificial break in the narrative, update it a bit, and remove the bowdlerization that had toned it down. The old editions are still around as used books, but the new version is what I always wanted it to be. Visit Parsina Press to pick up a copy, either in paperback or ebook format.
