Coming Soon to a Bookstore Near You…The first half of 2014 revealed!
2014 is going to be an awesome, action packed year of full length novels, many of which (but not all) I am revealing the covers for. I’ve been in a cover design flurry for the past few days and am excited to share the results. But don’t just peek at the cover. There is also an announcement down at the bottom of this post. Also, fun fact, ALL of these covers were designed by me, even the Thomas Dunne book, which is super fun for me. First up, XOM-B! This is my next hardcover release from Thomas Dunne Books. It’s due out on April 29 and available for pre-order now!
Freeman is a genius with an uncommon mixture of memory, intelligence and creativity. He lives in a worldwide utopia, but it was not always so. There was a time known as the Grind—when Freeman’s people lived as slaves to another race referred to simply as “Master.” They were property. But a civil rights movement emerged. Change seemed near, but the Masters refused to bend. Instead, they declared war.
And lost.
Now, the freed world is threatened by a virus, spread through bites, sweeping through the population. Those infected are propelled to violence, driven to disperse the virus. Uniquely suited to respond to this new threat, Freeman searches for a cure, but instead finds the source—the Masters, intent on reclaiming the world. Freeman must fight for his life, for his friends and for the truth, which is far more complex and dangerous than he ever imagined.

SAVAGE is next. Due out in July, this is the next full length Jack Sigler thriller, picking up where OMEGA left off, BUT also offering a fresh start to new readers who might not want to read the bazillion Jack Sigler books before this to catch up. With all of the plot lines from the first six novels wrapped up in Omega, we’re free to blaze a new trail and submit the team to some of their worst, most painful—and deadly—threats yet. Sometimes, a chess piece has to be sacrificed… Yeah, I know, I’m awful. Maybe I’m screwing with you, maybe I’m not. You’ll find out in July.

Let’s face it. The Jack Sigler/Chess Team universe is getting large. With seven novels and nine novellas, there are a lot of characters, locations, plots and details to keep track of. So, together with Kane Gilmour, co-author of RAGNAROK, OMEGA and CALLSIGN: DEEP BLUE, I will be putting out ENDGAME, a comprehensive guide book for all things Jack Sigler and/or Chess Team. If I get my way, it will include illustrations of key characters and monsters, and hint at future novels. Aiming for a release date shortly after SAVAGE.

Genetics gone awry? Real life GMO food threats? How’s that float your boat? No? How about this: The end of the human race. Not enough? The end of ALL LIFE as we know it! Better! THE HUNGER is a post-apocalyptic survival story unlike any that have come before it. And no, it’s not zombies. That would be preferable to what I’ve got brewing in this dark, breakneck-paced novel. That’s all I’m saying for now. The goal for this book’s release is September, but it could be sooner or later depending on how things go.
Click for larger image
And now, announcement time!! This year, I’ll be releasing THREE novels with co-author, Sean Ellis (who co-authored PRIME and the CALLSIGN: KING trilogy). The first of these three novels is above: SAVAGE, the seventh Jack Sigler Thriller. Next up, and pictured to the right, is FLOOD RISING! This is a brand spanking new thriller series featuring Jenna Flood, a fifteen year old girl with a mysterious background, uncanny abilities and a penchant for being hunted by different factions of bad guys, some out for blood, some for control. With pacing based on SECONDWORLD, you know it’s going to be a fast read! Our release date goal for this book is October. And if that’s not enough to get you excited, how about this? Sean is joining me to bring you an EIGHTH JACK SIGLER THRILLER! There is no title or cover yet, but we’re already hashing out the story and man oh man, it’s crazy. This book will (hopefully) be out in December, in time to make your Christmas merry. Last but not least, I’m also planning on a Project 731 novel, continuing the Nemesis storyline and merging it fully with ISLAND 731. No cover for that, either.
SO, 2014 is going to be a crazy fun year of full length novels, spending time with old friends and getting to know a few new ones. Hope you join us for the ride!

GUARDIAN has arrived!
When I came up with the idea for Omega, the latest full length Jack Sigler/Chess Team novel, I knew the events of that book would spawn a new series covering the events hinted at in Omega, but not covered in detail. GUARDIAN is the first book in that series, which I’ve dubbed, The Jack Sigler Continuum series and is co-authored by the very awesome J. Kent Holloway. Kent is not only an excellent writer, but also a hardcore fan of the series, and I think that really comes through in this story.
SUMMARY:
Jack Sigler, Callsign: King, has been a lot of things in his life. A soldier, a father, a hero. But now he’s taking up a new title: guardian.
After a life fighting billionaire madmen, terrorists and unnatural threats, he’s stuck thousands of years in the past, using his knowledge of history and modern warfare to right wrongs and stand up for those in need.
When he meets a twelve year old boy–the prince of the Babylonian Empire–who is to be sacrificed to the ancient goddess, Tiamat, by a twisted High Priest, King steps in, sword swinging. But what starts as a simple snatch and grab, quickly turns into a pitched battle against a legion of men and hideous creatures. As Tiamat rises from her ancient resting place, the fate of the world–and King’s future–is at stake.
Trapped millennia in the past and gifted with regenerative abilities, King must live out the centuries until he returns to his own time and his family. The Jack Sigler Continuum series tells the events that occurred in King’s life as a result of the full-length novel, Omega, but no prior reading is required to enjoy the Continuum series. Each story will be a standalone adventure, and a great jumping-on point. For more of King’s adventures, check out the entire Jack Sigler/Chess Team series.

THE QUEST FOR WORLD DOMINATION – 2013 REVIEW!
Greetings underlings! Err, I mean, loyal readers. Well, hopefully loyal. Actually, I’d be happy if you just stumbled across me now. Whoever you are, it’s no secret that I’m ambitious, probably to a fault. So each year I set a few goals (not resolutions) and then work hard at reaching them, beating them into submission and consuming them like a binge eating Galactus (the big purple world eating dude with the multiverse’s loudest helmet—seriously, what’s up with that helmet?). The last few years I’ve taken a morsel of time to look back at the previous year and fill you in on what it to come.
2013, much like 2011, was a year of unchecked ambition. I published a stupid amount of books.
Yeah, that’s fourteen books. Eight of them came out between October and December. And sure, one is coming out in a week, but its close enough to 2013 to count. And yes, one of them is a collection of the previously published Antarktos Saga, but it includes a long interview with fan provided questions, and a new short story, AND it was released as an 800 page hardcover novel with 20+ illustrations from four artists!
How did I do compared to last year?
In 2012, I sold 82,431 self-published books (e-book, print and audio). That was a 31% sales increase over 2011. In 2013, I sold 105,040 self-published books for a sales increase of 28%. My goal was a 30% increase, but that’s close enough for me! None of those numbers include books sold by major publishers, which I only get every six months and are harder to tally by year. Overall, this was a fantastic year for sales, in part, because of the copious amount of books I released.
What’s coming out next year?
In a word: less. Fourteen books a year, even with co-authors is not sustainable. Seriously, some small presses with staff publish less, and I am, after all, human. Actually, let me reword that… I am, for now, human. Once I get my robot body, fourteen books a year will be a piece of cake. So, what’s on the docket for 2014?
ISLAND 731 – February 2014 – The mass market paperback edition of ISLAND 731.
GUARDIAN – February 2014 – The first book in the Continuum series, co-authored with Kent J. Holloway, which (potential spoiler for those who haven’t read OMEGA) follows King’s exploits in the past.
XOM-B – April 2014 – I know that a lot of authors say this about every book they read, but I don’t I try to reserve it for when I really mean it: XOM-B is the best book I’ve written, hands down and if it doesn’t get my name on the New York Times Bestseller list, nothing will.
SAVAGE – July 2014 – This is the seventh Jack Sigler/Chess Team novel, picking up after OMEGA, co-authored by Sean Ellis, who also co-authored PRIME and the CALLSIGN: KING – BRAINSTORM TRILOGY.
Okay, now here’s where things get sketchy. After July, things aren’t set in stone. Why? Because I’m going to be working on a short film based on one of my upcoming 2015 novels, THE DISTANCE. I don’t know when we’ll be shooting, or fundraising, or going to film festivals, or whatever else we’ll need to do, so my writing schedule could get jostled a bit. But if I get my way, I’ll find time to make the movie AND write/publish two more novels in 2014. They are:
THE HUNGER – September 2014 – A post apocalyptic story with gobs of monsters and the end of humanity as we know it (yah!).
PROJECT 731 – The third book in the Kaiju Thriller series featuring Nemesis, Jon Hudson and the FC-P with returning special guests from ISLAND 731. And yes, the title implies that we’ll be picking back up with element of ISLAND 731 and the Nemesis storyline.
So, five new novels for 2014. Maybe six, but that’s a secret project I’m not sure about yet. But, if everything goes right, 2014 will also be the year I break into the movie biz and we start to see my stories on the page and the big screen. And let’s be honest, that would be absolutely bad-ass.
As for what I’m writing in 2014. I’ll be co-authoring GUARDIAN and SAVAGE, and possibly writing THE HUNGER and PROJECT 731, but I will also be writing two novels that will be released, in hardcover, in 2015. They are CRAZY and THE DISTANCE, which is being co-authored by my amazing wife, Hilaree.
I’ve got high hopes for 2014. Not only am I planning to kick down the doors of Hollywood, but I also have high expectations for Xom-B. Seriously, anything less than the NY Times Bestseller list will disappoint me. See that ambition? Ugh. Where 2013 was about putting out a crap-ton of books, 2014 will be about kicking things to the next level. Hope you come along for the ride!
And before you ask, no, the photo of Obama with ISLAND 731 is not real. Nor was last year’s Snooki reading PROJECT NEMESIS image (which seems to have fooled a few people).

Summary:
I’ve been told that the entire continent of Antarctica groaned at the moment of my birth. The howl tore across glaciers, over mountains and deep into the ice. Everyone says so. Except for my father; all he heard was Mother’s sobs. Not of pain, but of joy, so he says. Other than that, the only verifiable fact about the day I was born is that an iceberg the size of Los Angeles broke free from the ice shelf a few miles off the coast. Again, some would have me believe the fracture took place as I entered the world. But all that really matters, according to my parents, is that I, Solomon Ull Vincent, the first child born on Antarctica-the first and only Antarctican–was born on September 2nd, 1974.
If only someone could have warned me that, upon my return to the continent of my birth thirteen years later, I would be kidnapped, subjected to tortures beyond comprehension and forced to fight…and kill. If only someone had hinted that I’d wind up struggling to survive in a subterranean world full of ancient warriors, strange creatures and supernatural powers.
Had I been warned I might have lived a normal life. The human race might have remained safe. And the fate of the world might not rest on my shoulders. Had I been warned….
This is my story–the tale of Solomon Ull Vincent–The Last Hunter.

PROJECT MAIGO – Stomping Your Way – Now!!
[image error] [image error] [image error]
With Project Nemesis, I introduced the world of popular fiction to Kaiju, a word that has since become popularized by the movie Pacific Rim, and is associated with classic movie monsters such as Godzilla and Gamera. In the year since the release of Project Nemesis, the book has become the bestselling original Kaiju novel of all time, and it is being featured in the video game Colossal Kaiju Combat: Fall of Nemesis. In Project Maigo, I amp up the scale, the characters and the city-stomping action, and treat readers to a truly monstrous experience typically reserved for the big screen. In Project Maigo we see the return of Jon Hudson, the FC-P and Nemesis. We’re introduced FIVE new Kaiju (pictured below
). We catch up with characters from Island 731. And there is even a cameo appearance by a pair of ass-kicking women from some crazy series involving a board game.
BOSTON IS IN RUINS
Jon Hudson, head of the Department of Homeland Security’s Fusion Center – Paranormal division, is haunted by Boston’s destruction at the hands of Nemesis, a three-hundred-foot tall monster with the heart of a murdered little girl, Maigo. In the time since Boston fell and Nemesis retreated to the ocean’s depths, Hudson has helped prepare the United States against future attacks. But no one is prepared for what rises from the depths.
THE WORLD BURNS
Five new Kaiju attack cities and consume the world’s citizens in an unstoppable rampage around the globe. But it soon becomes apparent that these attacks aren’t all random events. Hudson is targeted, putting the FC-P headquarters, known as the Crow’s Nest, and his team, in the very large crosshairs. Directed by General Lance Gordon, a man who carries Nemesis’s vengeful heart in his chest, directs the Kaiju, and when Hudson finds protection from an unlikely source, the General turns his attention to his next target.
THE NATION’S CAPITOL IS NEXT
While Gordon and his Kaiju storm toward Washington D.C., Hudson, along with his team and some new and unusual allies, race to stand in their path, hoping to spare the nation—and the world—from destruction. But salvation at the end of all things will come only through the gravest of sacrifices.

REFUGE – NIGHT OF THE BLOOD SKY – Available Now!
REFUGE is a serialized novel, co-authored by #1 Amazon.com horror author, Jeremy Bishop (my pen name), and five other authors, including Amazon.com bestsellers Jeremy Robinson (the real me), Kane Gilmour and David McAfee, USA Today bestseller, Robert Swartwood, and newcomer Daniel Boucher. The novel will be released in five parts, every two weeks starting November 12, 2013, but it will also be available as one complete novel, as soon as the fifth episode is released.

Description:
Rebecca Rule is the sheriff of Refuge, New Hampshire. Her biggest concern is the rowdy summertime revelers making their way up from Massachusetts and New York. With most of the town’s residents in neighboring Ashland, for the Fourth of July fireworks show, Refuge is quiet. That is, until the Baptist Church’s bell starts ringing–on its own.
The bell chimes faster and faster, reaching a frenetic pace, as though rung by the Devil himself. But the bell is just the beginning. The air shimmers. The night-time sky fills with a burning red aurora. The moon, previously a crescent, is now full. And just hours after dusk, the sun returns to the sky, revealing an endless desert where there was once a mountainous pine forest.
Rule must guide the confused and frightened residents of Refuge through the first terrifying hours of acclimating to this horrifying new environment, while protecting them from inhuman dangers both inside and outside of the town’s newly clean-cut borders.
In a world gone haywire, only one thing is certain, no one in Refuge will ever forget the night of the blood sky.
Each novella-length installment is just $2.99!

OMEGA – King is Dead. Long Live King. — Available Now!
A lot of readers have been speculating about OMEGA possibly being the final Chess Team book. I can tell you now that it’s not! I’ll be announcing the next book in the series (along with TWO new hardcovers) on Facebook in the coming weeks. So if you’re not a Facebook friend, take care of that now. That said, this book brings all the story-lines that began with PULSE to a close. Your questions will be answered in dramatic fashion and story-arcs will be completed–permanently, forever changing the team and the world. Ouch!
Now, I know you’re still wondering, does King die? Well, you know my answer to that question. Read the book and find out!
SUMMARY:
Jack Sigler, Callsign: King, field leader for a black ops organization known as Endgame, is accustomed to feeling capable of handling most any situation. It is a confidence forged in the fires of battle against both monsters and madmen. But the introduction of Asya, a sister he never knew existed, and the kidnapping of his parents has him reeling. Using Endgame’s resources, King and his “Chess Team” (Queen, Rook, Bishop and Knight) scour the planet for his parents, tracking a man known to the world as Alexander Diotrephes, but known to King by another name. The legendary Hercules is alive, well and plotting something beyond imagining-something that will affect two thousand years of history.
While the team is spread thin, an interuder walks past their secret headquarters’ defenses, sits himself down in the director’s chair and waits. When he’s discovered by Endgame’s coordinator, Tom Duncan, Callsign: Deep Blue, he’s easy to identify-Richard Ridley, the team’s oldest and most dangerous enemy, who is supposed to be dead.
But he isn’t Ridley. He is a clone in search of his master, the real Ridley, who yet lives and is being held captive by the same man holding King’s parents. Believing Ridley is the only one capable of stopping Alexander’s plans, a temporary and tenuous alliance is formed, and Alexander’s location is soon uncovered. The team, along with three clones, heads for a citadel buried beneath the ruins of ancient Carthage. Already in the area, King and Asya arrive first to find their parents and a staggering family secret that leads to the end of King’s life as he knows it. The rest of the team arrives to find Richard Ridley free to act, an army of high-tech mercenaries bearing down on their location and evidence of their leader’s demise.
King is dead. Long live King.

Buy Now
The print edition is available on B&N and Amazon, but please be aware there is a duplicate listing for OMEGA that shows up as a pre-order page. I’m working with Amazon to resolve the issue, but if you have pre-ordered the book, you’ll need to cancel that order and buy the newly listed edition…which currently shows as Out Of Stock, but that should change shortly, especially as more people place their orders. But you can also get the book from bn.com and/or have you’re local bookstore order it. Sorry for the confusion!

The Raven Takes Flight – Jane Harper Returns to Kick Zombie Ass
I published the first Jane Harper horror novel, The Sentinel, myself. The book sold well enough to get the attention of 47 North, Amazon.com’s new horror imprint. We signed a 2 book deal to re-release The Sentinel with a new cover (links below) and publish the second book in the series, The Raven. Whether or not I get to do the third book in the series, The Valkyrie, is totally dependent on the success of the first two, so be sure to check it out, and spread the word if you want more Jane. And who wouldn’t? She’s a tough, sexy and sarcastic ass kicker of parasitical zombies! Be aware, because this was published by a company owned by Amazon, B&N will not carry it in store, or sell it for the Nook. So if you want Jane, head on over to Amazon where it is available for the Kindle and in print.
The Raven – Summary:
A battle to the death with six-hundred-year-old zombie Vikings in the frozen far North was just the beginning…
Undercover activist Jane Harper and father-and-son whalers Jakob and Willem Olavson thought they sent the walking corpses to their graves for good, but the intelligent parasites controlling the dead flesh lived on to keep fighting, and infecting.
Now Jane’s Nordic allies and a motley crew of mates are shoving off on a new monster-killing ship to take the battle to the insidious creatures before they infect the world. This time, though, they’re up against more than just a handful of ancient zombies on an isolated island. Even if Jane and her crew can conquer an army of the swimming dead–murderous and cunning zombie whales–they’ll still face a floating graveyard of ghost ships packed stem to stern with the next wave of the ravenous undead…who are hungry to settle the score with the last hope of humankind.

The Sentinel Summary:
An angry clash between professional whale hunters and the environmental activists out to stop them takes a deadly turn when sabotage sends both vessels to the bottom of the Arctic Ocean. Stranded in the aftermath on a desolate island off the coast of Greenland, survivors from both sides reluctantly join forces to stay alive in the frigid wasteland. But they swiftly discover that those who perished in the unforgiving sea were the lucky ones…
Jane Harper, an undercover government agent who’s quick with her wits and fists, knows punishing cold and dwindling supplies are to be feared. But in the ruins of an ancient Nordic outpost, a centuries-old message warns of a threat far worse: the Draugar-the dreaded “again walkers” of Viking lore, the terrifying living dead that spawned the legends of vampires and zombies. Now, roused from their cursed slumber, these gruesome Viking warriors and their monstrous queen are hungry for living flesh and eager to spread a ghoulish contagion from their long-buried prison across the globe.

PRIME – The Chess Team Origins Story is Here!
WHERE EVERYTHING BEGINS…
Have you ever wondered how King, Queen, Bishop, Knight and Rook came together as the world’s most bad-ass special ops team? You know they weren’t just picked out of a hat or put together under casual circumstances. Pssh. Please. The Chess Team, despite sounding nerdtastic, were forged in the heat of battle against precarious odds and surrounded by mystery, science, unpredictable circumstances and lots of explosions, flying bullets and dropping bodies. While you haven’t read Prime yet, you knew all that already, deep down in your heart. You knew it was messy. And awesome. And violent.
And now you can read about how it all went down. How did the team get their names? How did they meet? Witness the epic fight between King and Queen that was mentioned in PULSE. It’s all here, brought to life by myself and the stupendous Sean Ellis (whose solo books you need to check out).
Here is the official summary:
America’s most elite soldiers are about to uncover one of history’s deadliest secrets…
When a raid on an insurgent safehouse leads to a clue to decoding one of the world’s greatest mysteries, the Voynich manuscript, which reveals a recipe for creating the ultimate biological weapon of mass destruction, Delta operator Jack Sigler must forge a new black ops team to avert catastrophe. While bullets fly, he recruits a group of deadly warriors with dangerous secrets, assigning each member a chess piece callsign and dubbing them Chess Team.
But nothing is what it seems…and no one can be trusted. As the search for the truth about the manuscript moves across Asia and into the darkest reaches of human history, Chess Team must battle enemies beyond comprehension–nightmare creatures of myth and perverse creations of science–to preserve a secret as old as life itself.
In 2009, bestselling novelist Jeremy Robinson launched the adventures of Jack Sigler and Chess Team. Now, learn how it all began! Witness Chess Team’s beginning as King, Queen, Bishop, Rook, Knight and the elusive Deep Blue come together to form the only military force smart enough and dangerous enough to face the world’s most deadly, most high tech and most monstrous threats.

You Asked for “More Cowboy”. You Got It!
Milos Vesely, the six-gun shooting Czech cowboy who stole the show in my novel, SECONDWORLD, is a fan favorite. I’ve received several e-mails, tweets and Facebook message from readers requesting, no, demanding more Cowboy. Well, it’s been a year since the release of SECONDWORLD, and I’m finally delivering! I AM COWBOY has everything his fans crave—action, Nazis, conspiracy theories, history and a quick draw Czech cowboy who is fun to love. Story summary and all that other good stuff follows.
SUMMARY:
Milos Vesely, aka Cowboy, kills Nazis. After the events of SecondWorld–a failed attempt by modern Nazi forces to carry out a worldwide genocide and claim the planet for the Aryan nation-he now hunts down the enemy, most of whom are running for cover. But others, as Cowboy discovers beneath the sands of Tanis, Egypt, are searching for a way to strike again.
Hidden beneath the “lost city” is a network of tunnels and traps protecting an ancient power that predates Egypt’s mighty empires. Vesely, along with archeologist, Dr. Sarah Pasha, traverses the underground realm, heading deep into dangerous territory. But they’re not alone. Sturmbannführer Oskar Dirlewanger, one of the most infamous and violent Nazi leaders from World War II, and his Direlwanger Brigade, fifty of the most ruthless criminals in the Reich, are closing in, bent on retrieving the ancient power for themselves and resurrecting SecondWorld.
Trapped and on the run, Vesely and his lethal aim must face off against an army, but Nazis are far from the most dangerous element beneath the hot sands. Upon finding the ancient power source, Vesely not only recognizes it, but knows where it came from: Atlantis.
With I AM COWBOY, a 38,000 word novella, Jeremy Robinson builds on his novel, SECONDWORLD, maintaining the frenetic pace, expanding the history and creating an ending that will keep his readers speculating for years to come.
