I’ve been a little busy lately. You can see my work on my Patreon, otherwise you’re going to have to wait a few months to see the fully operational battle station …
Err, finished books. Yeah. That’s what I meant. Finished product.
Ahem.
Anyway.
Meanwhile, back on the farm, I’ve been released in two anthologies.
First…
Fantastic Schools, Volume #6
I suspect that if I lines up all of my fans, side by side, and asked for the genre I was least likely to contribute to, I suspect it would be this.
But you guys should know me by now, I’ll write in any genre that isn’t nailed down.
So the anthology here is as follows… see if you can guess which one is mine.
Although I guess what we should ask is “Which one doesn’t belong?”
Have you ever wanted to go to magic school? To cast spells and brew potions and fly on broomsticks and—perhaps—battle threats both common and supernatural? Come with us into worlds of magic, where students become magicians and teachers do everything in their power to ensure the kids survive long enough to graduate.
Welcome to ... Fantastic Schools.
Meet a student who discovers the hard way what happens when he is transformed into a monster, another who mixes magic and music to remarkable effect, a student who wants to trigger a magical industrial revolution, an assassin posing as a tutor with a mission he cannot deny, two students who have to learn to work together – or else – and a student who starts her school newspaper and discovers a conspiracy that strikes at the heart of a proud institution …
… And many more.
Stories by:
Christopher G. Nuttall, N. R. Lapoint, Gorg Huff & Paula Goodlett, Roger Strahan, Thomas K. Carpenter, Erin N.H. Furby, James Pyles, J.F. Posthumus, Declan Finn, Des M. Astor, Cathy Smith, Shana M. Buck, Andrew Young, E.F. Buckles, C. E. Perez
If you guessed “The one with the assassin,” you’d be right. Wasn’t that easy?
Right now, the button only goes to Amazon, since we’re in Kindle Unlimited. I hope to expand it soon enough.
But yes, I'm in this one.
Yes, my story has a lot of explosions and a gunfight.
Because it's me. Quelle surprise.
My description of my story?
Ahem.
Manu Stewart had infiltrated high security facilities on every continent on the planet.
A school wasn’t going to be much of a challenge.
This one was full of wizards.
But that was okay.
He had killed them too.
So that’s me.
Next!
Swords & Maidens
This one should be a little easier to guess which is mine.
From magic battlefields where horses fear to tread, to flying fortresses, fantastical otherworlds, a planet infested with eldritch abominations, and lands ruled by fear, heroes will fight for what is worth fighting for. Knights in gleaming armor, soldiers, Middle Earth’s most deadly Elvish assassin, hunters, and kings. All will risk their lives to defend the defenseless, to destroy monsters, to preserve the lives and honor of fair maidens.
See a soldier fight to rescue a besieged princess from marauding, magitech barbarians, an immortal knight fight for a farmstead, a husband and wife fight for the honor of a fallen comrade against a deadly dragon, a hunter seek to recover a maiden’s stolen soul, an elf defend a woman from assassins, a deposed king fight for his kingdom, and more!
I will grant you, it was a little easy if you’ve read my MurderCon books, It Was Only on Stun! and Set to Kill. “Middle Earth’s most deadly Elvish assassin” sounds familiar.
The editor put together these nifty images for the occasion.
Anyway, that’s all I have for today.
Be well all.
