Great review of An American Weredeer in Michigan

 
Trevor Hob Sherman does an amazing job explaining why AN AMERICAN WEREDEER IN MICHIGAN was such a great read. I'm so pleased he took the time to give it a read. It was one of my all time favorite books to write.

CAMP DEERWOOD!

A parody of 80s slasher movies!

Can Jane beat the Beast of Darkwater Lake?

Blackjack: Dead or Alive by Ben Bequer review

   
    BLACKJACK is a series I very much enjoy and hope eventually gets on audiobook. It's one of my favorite supervillain series and that's a bigger subgenre of superheroes and fantasy than you'd expect. It's the story of a super-tough, super-smart archer who has the problem of being unable to employ his abilities effectively--also the fact he's internationally hated due to being blamed for the deaths of many heroes (he was only guilty of one).

Blackjack: Wayward by Ben Bequer review


    BLACKJACK: WAYWARD is the sequel to the very entertaining BLACKJACK: VILLAIN that followed the adventures of a super-smart and super-tough archer who just couldn't put his formidable gifts to productive use. The ending of the previous book had an apocalyptic battle between superheroes and villains with our anti-hero saving the day but at considerable cost.

    The sequel opens up with Blackjack seemingly being transported to another world as a way to contain h...

Hack/Slash Omnibus 3 review


     Pfft, this one is a tough one to review. Well, okay, it's not. Hack/Slash volume 3 isn't actually that good. I was a huge fan of the first two volumes but this omnibus and its stories pushed me away from the franchise. Basically, the omnibus takes some of the flaws of the previous volumes and then exaggerates them a great deal before adding a few more.

    The premise of Hack/Slash is Cassie Hack is a young beautiful Goth girl who is the daughter of a Sl...

Friday the 13th: The Game review *Updated May 24th, 2018*


    I've been holding off on this one because I knew the game was going to be not really what I wanted but was probably going to be enjoyable. Just probably barely so. You see, I'm a huge Friday the 13th fan. What introduced me to the series? I'll tell you what, THE NES GAME! When I was a wee tiny tot, I got to face Jason Voorhees in one of the mostly badly designed games of all time. Except, I still remember I beat Jason ONCE during one of the boss battles. That stuck with me...

I WAS A TEENAGE WEREDEER excerpt


Here's an excerpt from I WAS A TEENAGE WEREDEER available in ebook, paperback, and audiobook formats.

CHAPTER ONE

    I was a teenage weredeer. Specifically, I ceased to be a teenager as of eight o’clock that morning. I was an adult, eighteen years of age. I couldn’t legally drink but I could vote and… Hmm, actually, that was pretty much it. I graduated from Bright Falls High School a year ago due to skipping my freshman year and started taking community college courses a month b...

A great podcast interview with me on SCI FI SATURDAY NIGHT


A great interview where I discuss the Supervillainy Saga, Agent G, Trump, and Weredeer all at once.

http://scifisaturdaynight.com/?p=8994

Continuing with our on again off again theme, what’s so funny about science fiction, on this episode our guest is C.T. Phipps, author of, among many other things, The Rules of Supervillainy series that features the unlikely anti-hero Gary Karkofsky. The discussion is a typical author interview, talking about bizarre pop culture references, the use of Bill an...
