Audiobook Reviewer award nominations!

 Hey, I’ve been nominated for multiple audiobook awards this year. I’m very pleased to get the acknowledgement for my work and am so proud of the material done by my narrators. Thank you so very much.

PLEASE VOTE FOR ME IN THESE CATEGORIES:

HORROR – THE TOWER OF ZHAAL

 https://audiobookreviewer.com/abr-listeners-award/horror-2018-voting/

 It has been a year since John Henry Booth’s exile from New America and the fall of the Black Cathedral. Cursed with a slow transformation into a monster, he has begun a doomed relationship with fellow escapee Mercury Halsey as they seek some way to arrest his transformation.

Dubious hope arrives in the form of the University, the deranged scientists and cultists descended from the staff of Miskatonic University. Except, their offer of help comes at a price. Having sold themselves to ancient aliens called the Yith, they wish John and Mercury to join a group of rogues in hunting down a wayward member of their faculty: a man who intends to release the last of the sleeping Great Old Ones on an already ravaged planet. If they’re telling the truth, John and Mercury will be heroes. If.

The Tower of Zhaal is the second novel of the Cthulhu Armageddon series, a post-apocalypse continuation of H.P. Lovecraft’s popular Cthulhu Mythos.

 HUMOR – THE SCIENCE OF SUPERVILLAINY

Gary Karkofsky a.k.a Merciless: The Supervillain without Mercy™ returns in the fourth volume of the popular Supervillainy Saga. Having discovered the world’s greatest superhero slain by his doppelganger from another reality, Merciful: The Supervillain with Mercy™, and the arrogant President Omega, Gary dedicates himself to overthrowing both. 

Unfortunately, this is harder than it looks since Merciful has all of Gary’s genre savviness while President Omega has the entire brainwashed United States military behind him. In the end, though, there can be only one ruler of the world and two of these three feuding villains will have to go.

PARANORMAL – STRAIGHT OUTTA FANGTON

Peter Stone is a poor black vampire who is wondering where his nightclub, mansion, and sports car is. Instead, he is working a minimum wage job during the night shift as being a vampire isn’t all that impressive in a world where they’ve come out to mortals.

Exiled from the rich and powerful undead in New Detroit, he is forced to go back when someone dumps a newly-transformed vampire in the bathroom of his gas station’s store. This gets him fangs-deep in a plot of vampire hunters, supernatural revolutionaries, and a millennium-old French knight determined to wipe out the supernatural. Sometimes, it just doesn’t pay to get out of the coffin.

.THRILLER – AGENT G: INFILTRATOR

“Black Technology has made murder a billion dollar industry.”

The International Refugee Society has twenty-six cybernetically enhanced “Letters,” and for the right price, they’ll eliminate anyone. They’ve given up their families and their memories for ten years of service with the promise of a life of luxury awaiting them.

Agent G is one of these “Letters,” but clues to his past are starting to emerge while he’s on a dangerous mission to infiltrate the Society’s most dangerous competitor. In the midst of all the violence, subterfuge, and deceit, he’ll need to keep his wits about him and trust sparingly. After all if an organization will kill for money, what would they do to keep the truth hidden?

 SCI-FI – LUCIFER’S STAR 

https://audiobookreviewer.com/abr-listeners-award/science-fiction-2018-voting/ 

Cassius Mass was the greatest star pilot of the Crius Archduchy. He fought fiercely for his cause, only to watch his nation fall to the Interstellar Commonwealth. It was only after that he realized the side he’d been fighting for was the wrong one. Now a semi-functional navigator on an interstellar freight hauler, he tries to hide who he was and escape his past. Unfortunately, some things refuse to stay buried and he ends up conscripted by the very people who destroyed his homeland.

LUCIFER’S STAR is the first novel of the Lucifer’s Star series, a dark science fiction space opera set in a world of aliens, war, politics, and slavery.

Lucifer’s Star now available on audiobook!

Hey folks,

I’m tremendously pleased to announce the release of LUCIFER’S STAR, my dark space opera, on audiobook. Eric Burns (The Dragon Circle Trilogy) has done an amazing job bringing my story to life and I hope you’ll check it out. I’ve heard the book described as an “R-rated Star Wars” and “what happens when the TIE pilots and stormtroopers find out they’re the bad guys.” For me, it’s a deconstruction of the more romanticized view of war and its consequences in many military sci-fi stories while keeping all the pew-pew as well as romance.

Cthulhu Armageddon’s audiobook is now available!

Hey folks,

I’m incredibly pleased to announce that CTHULHU ARMAGEDDON is now available on audiobook for your listening pleasure. Better still, Jeffrey Kafer, who made the Supervillainy Saga and Esoterrorism so good will be lending his voice to one last series of mine. I think this is probably our best work and fans of post-apocalypse fiction, science fiction, horror, and the Cthulhu Mythos will all enjoy it.

“Under an alien sky where gods of eldritch matter rule, the only truth is revenge.”

CTHULHU ARMAGEDDON is the story of a world 100 years past the rise of the Old Ones which has been reduced to a giant monster-filled desert and pockets of human survivors (along with Deep Ones, ghouls, and other “talking” monsters).

John Henry Booth is a ranger of one of the largest remaining city-states when he’s exiled for his group’s massacre and suspicion he’s “tainted.” Escaping with a doctor who killed her husband, John travels across the Earth’s blasted alien ruins to seek the life of the man who killed his friends.

It’s the one thing he has left.

Cthulhu Armageddon audiobook on the way!

Jeffrey Kafer is awesome. The man who has done my first three Supervillainy Saga books (The Rules of Supervillainy, The Games of Supervillainy, The Secrets of Supervillainy) as well as my Esoterrorism novel is also doing Cthulhu Armageddon. What if Cthulhu Armageddon? It is a post-apocalypse action adventure set in the future of the world of H.P. Lovecraft’s Cthulhu Mythos. Basically, what if you crossed Mad Max and Call of Cthulhu.

THE SECRETS OF SUPERVILLAINY is available on audiobook today

Hey folks,

Fabulous news! THE SECRETS OF SUPERVILLAINY, third volume of the Supervillainy Saga, is out on audiobook today!

Merciless, the Supervillain without Mercy (TM), is back with even bigger problems! How far will he go to fix his wife’s current state of being a soulless vampire? Can he ignore his growing feelings for Cindy, despite their difference over the new Star Wars movie? Can he survive the wrath of the president of the United States (whom he accidentally stole billions from)?

While he ponders those personal issues, Death has a new mission for him. The greatest hero on Earth has killed, and she isn’t pleased. Death wants the murder solved and the perpetrator given the kind of justice only the Avatar of Death can dish out. Unfortunately for Gary, that’s only the tip of the psychotic iceberg.

Jeffrey Kafer did an amazing job on the audiobook here and I think it’s some of his best narration yet. I think fans of the book series will love this one as much as the previous two as it is the first part of a two book adventure which will have Gary facing his toughest challenge yet!

Esoterrorism is now available on audiobook!

I’m pleased to announce the ESOTERRORISM audiobook, narrated by Jeffrey Kafer, is now available for purchase from Audible.com. It was the first book I ever wrote, containing everything as well as the kitchen sink I love about spy fiction, humor, and urban fantasy.

There are no good guys in the world of shadows…but maybe some bad men are better than others.

Derek Hawthorne was born to be an agent of the Red Room. Literally. Raised in a conspiracy that has protected the world from the supernatural for centuries, he’s never been anything other than a servant of their agenda. Times are changing, though, and it may not be long before their existence is exposed.

When a routine mission uncovers the latest plan of magical terrorist the Wazir, Derek finds himself saddled with a new partner. Who is the mysterious but deadly Shannon O’Reilly? What is her agenda? Couple this with the discovery that the Red Room has a mole seeking to frame Derek for treason and you have a plot that might bring down a millennium-old organization. Can he stop the Wazir’s mission to expose the supernatural? And should he?

I’m very pleased with the job Jeffrey Kafer has done on this one, mimicking his success with my Supervillainy Saga books. The Red Room universe is a darker one than the one where Merciless dwells but both heroes deal with their problems with a thoroughly pop-cultured snark. I hope everyone will enjoy listening to the work as much as I did making it.

You can pick up your copy today!

ESOTERRORISM’s audiobook will be narrated by Jeffrey Kafer!

And for those interested in knowing, Jeffrey Kafer will be doing the audiobook read for ESOTERRORISM as produced by Audible. Jeffrey did an awesome job for my Supervillainy Saga books and I look forward to him doing this. Awesome, guys, really!

I admit, this description is one I’d change as it kind of leaves out just how ridiculous Derek is who is half-Harry Dresden/half-James Bond and can give Gary a run for his money in snark.

The Games of Supervillainy audiobook is now available!

Games of Supervillainy 3
Great news, everyone! Jeffrey Kafer, the narrator for THE RULES OF SUPERVILLAINY, not only successfully completed and submitted the sequel but it is now available for purchase from Audible as well as Amazon.com. I’ve, of course, already heard his results and I believe them to be better than his previous work–which was amazingly well done.

Get ready for the action-packed follow up to The Rules of Supervillainy. This time with zombies, zombified heroes and villains, cults, magic, super-science, a dragon, a giant Nazi robot, a Greek demigod, and so much more!

Gary and Cloak have returned from the supervillain prison on the moon only to discover the city he plans to conquer and rule with an iron fist has been overrun with the living dead. Once again taking up the mantle of Merciless: The Supervillain Without Mercy™, Gary will have to pull it together quickly, find his wife, his gang, and a whole lot of help to stop the Brotherhood of Infamy from slaughtering the population of Falconcrest City and opening a portal to summon a primal force of destruction.

But Gary has a plan, or at least he’s sure he’ll have one soon. Just give him a second.

Update for THE GAMES OF SUPERVILLAINY


Hey folks,

I just wanted you all to know that THE GAME OF SUPERVILLAINY’s Kindle version has been updated. There were a few typos and mistakes which we missed the first time around (a couple of egregious ones) which were errors made by our editing process that we’re all very embarrassed about. The new version has corrected these and is the one we’ll be using for our print release as well as the audio book.

Our apologies and this won’t happen again.

Speaking of the audio book version, Jeffrey Kafer has finished the audio book version of TGOS and sent it to me for approval. I’m listening to it now and should have it approved this week. I’m very proud of his efforts and I’ve got to say I genuinely think this is probably better than his work on THE RULES OF SUPERVILLAINY.

Jeffrey Kafer is an amazing narrator for hundreds of audio books and has brought to life my characters in a way I don’t think anyone else really could have. I give him props for his humor, inflection, characterization, and timing. You’re all in for a real treat with him and I hope you enjoy the ride.

The print version has also been submitted and should be available for purchase in the coming week.

Thanks again to all of our fans for the Supervillainy Saga.

The Rules of Supervillainy is now out on audiobook

Great news, folks!

The Rules of Supervillainy, my most successful novel so far, has been released by Amber Cover in audiobook format. Narrated by Jeffrey Kafer, it’s absolutely wonderful and I’ve already got a couple of great reviews on the work. Jeffrey really managed to capture the humorous, dramatic, and sometimes outright crazy spirit of the novel.

Bravo.

I think you should pick this up if you like superheroes, humor, and audio books.

But I may be biased.
