Jake's fate (ie., publication date) is still up in the air. Whenever I get some concrete details--one way or the other--I'll get them posted immediately.
Andrea wrote: "do your sigma force series have to be read in order to understand the characters and plot?"No, not at all. Any order is fine.
Thanks for adding me as a friend. I am in complete awe of how you can weave so many elements together, without overwhelming readers. I'm also amazed you can find so many real & interesting facts to add to your books. Orcas, volcanoes, native americans, founding fathers, specific quotes, it just boggles my mind. I'm looking forward to Bloodline & I think I'll even get to go to a signing!
Thanks so much for the awesome books!
Hello Mr. R, i would love to write more but i have limited time. When will the next Jake Ransom book come out? I am getting older and i love the searies too much! Always

Hello Mr. Rollins,Thank you so much for accepting my friend request. In all honesty, I have not read your work... yet... but I certainly intend to. Your author summary above, talking about you, and what you write, sparked my interest immediately.
In a few weeks, after I finish writing my second book, I plan to take some time off. That's when I'll be getting one of your books. I want to learn from you and your writing style. Which one of your stories would you recommend I start with first?
I look forward to following your work. Take care and all the best to you.

I am sure that I did, I have written two books over the past 12 months and have barely kept up with my email. I still have email from May 2012 to work on. I do promise to respond to yours. Give me a few months :)

Sunday, I am sitting in my living room, when four huge military copters fly over my house, in what seems to be inches of my roof. I hust finished reading your newest book and had just started reading Stephen King. You can imagine where my imagination went. i was still checking to see if my heart was still beating when the booms started. By that time I have three 50 lb cattle dogs on my lap and I'm waiting for....? Several booms later and I wonder why the tv hasn't cut in to tell us what is happening. Later at the store I see a young lady in fatigues. So I asked her what happened? They were commissioning a new military center two blocks from my house and they set off a 21 CANNON salute. Wow, you would think they would warn people.
Thanks for adding me, Jim! I read Amazonia and LOVED it, so I'm starting the Sigma Force series now. I just finished Sandstorm and thought it was fantastic! Can't wait until I get to The Devil Colony--early American history is one of my favorite periods to study. Looks like a fascinating read! Have a great day, my new friend!

I agree. I received the Doomsday Key as a Christmas present and read it first(book 6) then I had to go find the other 5 and I read them in order that I bought them: Book 5, 3, 4, 2 then 1. It made for an interesting read, "oh, that's what happened to him". The Sigma Force books held my interest and read them all last summer. I just started to read your stand alone novels and enjoyed "Subterranean". I've been told I am getting the rest of your collection for birthday and Christmas presents so I just have to wait till them.
Thanks for the great reads.
Mr Rollins, I finally picked up Map of Bones and thoroughly enjoyed it. Well written, fast paced, great characters and lovely locations. I'm ready to pick up another one Sigma Force.
