August 3 Update: You can purchase a signed edition directly from me.
Well, pretty much around this time last year I began working on a story that grew way bigger than I had first anticipated. Some of you may remember that I had it posted in both ASB and in the Writers' Forum (both threads were deleted on ym request). It kinda flourished from that point on, and I've now published it as a book, professionally edited and all.
It consists of 175,000 words on 390 pages, so even if you don't like it you can use it as a doorstopper or as an impromptu weapon to bash somebody's head in. Since I quite frankly can't imagine a better target audience than you guys - you're even more suited than that of my "home forum" - let me use this opportunity to show it to you:
2024. The world we know is crumbling. A devastating war in the Persian Gulf has left the global economy in ruins, and civilization itself is beginning to crack under the strain. When a war-weary task force of NATO ships races against time and a rival fleet to prevent Brazil's descent into a murderous civil war, their mission is unexpectedly upset by a mysterious tempest. Thrown back in time, Captains Steven Flynn and Florian Hallwinter with their crews emerge in the year 1940 as the world is gripped in the fires of World War Two.
Presented with the opportunity to change both past and future for the better, they find themselves drawn into a maelstrom of conflicting interests. While overcoming the suspicion of their natural allies of the time proves harder than they imagined, they soon discover that even the best intentions carry the seeds of doom. For whereas Flynn is American, Hallwinter and his crew are from Germany...
Wolf Hunt is a book in the same vein of S.M. Stirling's ISOT, Birmingham's Axis of Time or Flint's 1632 series. You can also read an interview the Kindle Author blog did with me about my writing and Wolf Hunt in particular here.
July 24 Update: The Great Nazi-Hunting Palooza of July is coming to an end, but we're not quite there yet. You can still strike a bargain over at Smashwords where Wolf Hunt is available for only $2.99 (that's a 26% discount, folks!) for the coming seven days! Get your copy now!
And right now, Amazon is selling the paperback edition of Wolf Hunt at a discount of 28%, meaning you can get it at $12.23 instead of the regular price of $16.99. Since I've got no idea for how long Amazon will keep the price that low: now's your chance!
Well, I haven't shown my face around here for some time...Guys, for those simply interested, I've started a little feature series on my website, presenting some of the locations the plot is centered around. I've included scenes from the book - after all, I'm not the bloody Thomas Cook travel guide.
The Locations of TBA: 01 - The Azores 02 - Portsmouth, Uk 2024
