The Anti-Gravity Steal
The Anti-Gravity Steal features Ned “Noc” Brenner, a golden boy millennial, a drifter gifted at whatever he attempts -- surfer, motocross rider, b-baller, a master at blitz chess to shooting craps in a back alley. It all comes so easy to Noc. But when he saves a fellow player from kidnapping after exiting an all-night poker game, he’s courted by a shadowy entity run by one of the world’s richest, most reclusive and idiosyncratic men.
Noc is challenged to use his abilities for a greater purpose. Soon he’s in deep, working with a man who can be anyone else, an enigmatic woman with black ops trained esper powers, and a professor haunted by tragedy loosing himself in creating gadgets. They're in a race to prevent the super villain Prospero from auctioning off an anti-gravity device he stole – a machine that in the wrong hands would imperil untold millions. In the vein of Doc Savage and the Avenger, comes Noc Brenner, a 21st century adventurer with a few dark secrets of his own.

Manchurian Shadows
by Teel James Glenn
I’m pleased to announce the publication
of the second book in the Dr. Shadows series of adventure thrillers, Manchurian
Shadows! In this first full length novel of the granite man he travels from the
streets of the Bronx to Harbin City in Manchuria where the occupying Japanese
have a deadly secret he must uncover!
Written in full bore pulp style the
book is like stepping back to the 1930s themselves!
When
a messenger arrives with a mysterious message from China, Dr. Shadows, the man
of granite, finds himself caught in an intrigue that spans from Japan to China
to the United States. As the world lurches toward World War II, the U.S.
struggles to recover from the depression while the war between Japan and China
continues to escalate, and China relief funds, both real and bogus, appeal to
mostly indifferent Americans for help to the refugees and victims of a brutal
war.
Author Teel James Glenn continues
the adventures of the mysterious Dr. Shadows in a novel that is both an homage
to 1930s-style pulp and an exciting story. Although Glenn writes with a pulp
style, Dr. Shadows is more than a single-dimensional character. With his love
for Hank, his concern for the oppressed in China and elsewhere, and his
feelings for then-occupied Korea, Shadows resonates with the modern reader
while still being true to his era.
Glenn's background as a martial
artist, fight scene coordinator and stunt man really pay off in the action
scenes. Fans of history will get a kick out of Teel's attention to detail and
pulp action fans will want to keep their eyes open for Dr. Shadows's off-hand mention
of some of the other pulp heroes patrolling the streets of New York.

Ratfish
Crag Banyon mystery, Bum Luck
BANYON INVESTIGATIONS, INC. CASES CRACKED. REASONABLE RATES.
When a desperate leprechaun needs to locate his lost pot of gold, there's only one P.I. in town dogged and sober enough to take the case. Unfortunately, his first choice is in Bimini dodging an IRS audit, so he calls on Crag Banyon instead.
That's just the start of a string of increasingly lousy luck that hounds Banyon from one emerald end of his latest crummy job to the other, where it turns out that a trip over the rainbow isn't the fun-and-booze-filled romp that all the brochures claim. Banyon finds that the whole leprechaun world is upside-down, while at the same time our own world is suffering through a mealtime catastrophe that's threatening side dishes from here to Thanksgiving and beyond.
Toss in a femme fatale more fatale than usual, along with a sexy dame reporter who's so untrustworthy even her curves are crooked, and Banyon finds that he's up to his pretty little eyeballs in more trouble than one plucky, partially plastered P.I can handle. Not without doubling his rates and/or tripling his booze consumption.
UNLUCKIEST P.I. IN THE GREATER METROPOLITAN YELLOW PAGES.

Xander convinces Olivia they must form a temporary partnership. The two teens develop a connection, and together they must figure out how to end the curse before it turns deadly.

AS TARTARY BURNS
SWORDS AND MAGIC
Airship 27 Productions delves into the world of fantasy
adventure with an action packed novel set in the days of the Russian empire
building.
For generations, the freedom loving Cossacks battled their
enemies; the Ottoman Turks and Crimean Tartars for the supremacy of the rugged
Steppes. Frustrated by the constant
raids of these reckless, horse-riding warriors, Constantinople
prepares a major campaign that will end the Cossacks and their way of life
forever.
Realizing they are severely outnumbered against such a Turkish
reprisal, the Cossack Headsman seeks out the sorcerer Alexsandr with a bold
scheme. He wants to Alexsandr to enter
the realms of magic and enlist the aid of magical creatures of Slavic myth as
allies. With the help of his friend, Commander Marko and the battled hardened
Bohun, the wizard must summon all his skills, both martial and arcane, to
fulfill his sacred mission and in doing so save his people.
“When I first read the manuscript, I was very excited,” says
Airship 27 Productions’ Managing Editor, Ron Fortier. “There seems to be very little interests
these days in classic adventure tales.
This marvelous book is the exception we’ve been waiting for.”
In the grand tradition of Robert E. Howard and Harold Lamb,
writer Riley Hogan spins a tale of tested comrades about to risk all in a
dangerous quest that, if they survive, could lead to the greatest victory in
Cossack history.
Now available at Amazon and on Kindle.
