Readers React

A reader just said, "It's like reading the Hardy Boys on acid." Not sure what this means, but I'm hoping it was a compliment.

The Reviewer

To all my fellow Indy-authors...

I urge you to read this very very short, very very funny story.

I promise, you will laugh.

Regrets

I had posted a PDF version of Jump City for free in the preview section here on Goodreads. Thinking it was not downloadable (as the button assured me), I felt safe and secure. However, I've learned this is not so! Indeed, the PDF could be downloaded and printed. Not good.

With small regret, I have taken it down.
If you were in the middle of it, drop me a line and I'll be happy to send a copy.

Excited!

So excited!
1st Beta-Review is in for JUMP CITY!

"Dynamic and intricate, a time-travelling, era-hopping mystery that tears along at a breakneck pace while sacrificing none of its complexity. I doubt you'll be able to close this book before you're through."
