My friends in the blogosphere have been busy lately! For today's Reader News we have two exciting new books and a Kickstarter campaign.
Jack Badelaire over at the Post Modern Pulp blog has just released COMMANDO: Operation Bedlam. This is the second in his action series about a crack British Commando team in WWII. I loved the first book (read my review here) and was lucky enough to be a beta reader for the second. Both are fast-moving books with lots of action, a huge body count, and an eye for historical accuracy.
David Lee Summers and I go way back. For some two decades now he's written a steady output of quality stories and novels ranging from horror to science fiction to steampunk. His latest is Dragon's Fall: Rise Of The Scarlet Order, a vampire novel that came out last month and I somehow missed. (Sorry David!)
Last but not least, Eric over at the Civil War Daily Gazette is getting married and his honeymoon will be a drive along the entire length of Route 66! He and his bride-to-be have launched a Kickstarter campaign called the Route 66 Polaroid Project. They'll be taking Polaroid shots of the sights along The Mother Road. Supporters can get unique old-fashioned print photos sent to them, complete with description of the view. This is a project worth supporting!
Home to author Sean McLachlan and the House Divided series of Civil War horror novels. A Fine Likeness, the first in the series, is available now. This blog is dedicated to the Trans-Mississippi Civil War and historical fiction, and occasionally veers off into adventure travel when I go somewhere interesting.
Looking for more from Sean McLachlan? He also hangs out on the Midlist Writer blog, where he talks about writing, adventure travel, caving, and everything else he gets up to. He also reproduces all the posts from Civil War Horror, so drop on by!

Great Blog, have you read Gone With The Wind?
ReplyDeleteNice to meet you via the A to Z blog!
Sounds like some great books. Congrats to Jack and David. I'll check those out.
ReplyDeleteSounds like a fun trip for Eric and his bride.
The Polaroid one sounds interesting. He must've purchased a case of film before they went under.
ReplyDeleteFuji still makes film for the Colorpack model, the one where the film slides out the side. I didn't know that until Eric posted his Kickstarter!
DeleteThanks for the mention, Sean. Much appreciated!
