The New Book

Captain Uri Haad is plunged into one of the most terrifying voyages of his Colonial Navy career. His ship, the CNS Corpus Christi, stumbles upon a derelict alien vessel out in the void of Orion's Belt -- The Belt Loop as it is known by the sailors of the Third Colonial Fleet out of Elber Prime. He launched a Search and Rescue mission to the hulking derelict after his scans detected surviving life forms. What started as a mission of mercy quickly turns into a nightmare of epic proportions and as the horror spreads to his ship and crew, Captain Haad must make life and death decisions to avoid his own destruction and possibly an interstellar war. This taut deep-space adventure bridges the gap between distant suns and gives us a glimpse into the workings of the Twenty-eighth Century Colonial Navy. Approximately 95,000 words.

Well, here it is! As you can tell by the blurb above, the "Loop" is one dangerous place. The text is completed and in the final editing throes. Look for the book to be available in the Kindle store sometime around August 21st, barring any unforseen misfortunes on my part.

Hats off to Christopher A. Jones for another great cover. See more of his artwork at:

Now I have to go back to Las Vegas in the year 2079 and figure out how I'm going to get Danny DeVille out of the mess he's found himself chest-deep in. The third book of the future Vegas series has the working title of The GOD Machine and should be ready for publication before the end of this year. Assuming, of course, that I don't take time off to continue the Belt Loop saga.
