COMING SOON: Stone Soldiers #10
A LUCKY DAY TO DIE
Las Vegas, Nevada--home to gamblers and dreamers and something a lot darker. Colonel Mark Kenslir is drawn to Sin City to attend the funeral of a distant family member. While there, the leader of the Stone Soldiers discovers all is not as it seems. Worse, those lurking in the shadows of the Strip have noticed the immortal stone soldier's presence, and they aren't happy. With no support, and no equipment, America's oldest supersoldier must stop the forces of darkness alone or die trying.

Pale Horseman
New Release!
Pale Horseman
Richard Murphy is a hard-boiled, octogenarian Hollywood detective who thinks he's seen it all--until he and his younger partner witness a horrific murder committed by a galloping centaur. Now the elderly P.I. worries he'll be next on the killer's list. But unbeknownst to Murphy, one of his on-line friends is more than just a master chess player. He's a member of Detachment 1039, America's secret super soldier program tasked with combatting the supernatural. Murphy and his partner in crime-solving are soon visited by the Stone Soldiers, who enlist the semi-retired P.I.'s aid in tracking down a serial-killing centaur who's come to L.A. to reap the souls of the wicked and the innocent.
Available now on Kindle

If you like... Marvel's Agents of SHIELD
MARVEL's AGENTS OF S.H.I.E.L.D.
With just one season under its belt MAOS has revealed itself as a very complex show, not because of overly detailed plots or fanatstic action sequences, but because of its connection to Marvel movies like Avengers, Captain America: Winter Soldier and even Thor; The Dark World. Fully embracing the Marvel cinematic, Big-Screen universe on the small screen, MAOS offers viewers a chance to stay in the world created for them at the theaters and to see a lot more of that world on a smaller scale.
But a movie tie-in isn't enough to carry a show, even if the network airing it is also owned by the movie studio. MAOS needed more. To that end, an ensemble cast was put together and top notch special effects and locations were assembled.
MAOS may have started slow--it was long on talk and drama and short on action. But sticking with the show for the whole season, viewers eventually got to see what they wanted, like Deathlok, more Asgardian weapons, an Asgardian and super-technology plus a whole lot more of S.H.I.E.L.D. itself. Season two holds a lot of hope of even more super-action on the small screen as Marvel continues to dominate the superhero world.
SIMILARITIES TO STONE SOLDIERS
While the Agents of SHIELD work around the world protecting mankind from super-threats, they tend to do so one small threat at a time, much more akin to the Men in Black film series than Detachment 1039. Property damage is at a minimum--porbably due to TV budget contraints.
As a book series, with no budget limitations, Stone Soldiers can reveal much bigger threats, and with bigger results. But most importantly, the Stone Soldiers aren't a bunch of Federal Agents in spiffy black suits, they're supersoldiers armed with heavy duty weapons against dangerous super-threats.
Moreover, the Stone Soldiers don't rely on words to resolve problems. If action is something you felt was lacking on MAOS, then Stone Soldiers is definitely worth a read, as many reviewers have pointed out. So if you're looking for more super-powered action while you wait for Marvel's Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. to return to television, consider checking out Stone Soldiers.
"Like titans fighting for their side and no-holds barred blows that seem to shake the very pages (or screen in this case as I read it on Amazon Cloud)"--Tyler Danaan, Amazon Reader
"This is one of the funest series of books i have come across. it is simply that fun. no morality tales, no way too real, just like a well written slam bang series of books."--Brad Thomas, Amazon Reader
"This is a fast paced action adventure in true Pulp Fiction style that C.E.Martin is so damn good at. From the opening paragraph to the final period, this is a book of outstanding action and adventure with a bit of mystery and intrigue thrown in..."-Johnny Rentfro, Amazon Reader
"Great and fast moving story, I had trouble putting it down, Can not wait to start the next book"--Ronald Rube, Amazon Reader
"This series is so fun! In a big 'splosions, shoot 'em up, badass soldiers, and wicked bad guys sort of way."--Kelly Rubidoux, Reading-the-Paranormal
"The fight scenes in the book were really graphic and gory and absolutely PERFECT to help my imagination go wild."--Megmet, Amazon Reader
"Super powered heroes versus the blackest magical forces in a pot-bubbling stew that will have you turning pages and losing track of time. Martin’s work is addictive and we mean that in the most complimentary ways possible."--Ron Fortier, Pulp FIction Reviews

If you like... SUPERNATURAL (the TV Series)
Introducing a new feature at Stone Soldiers, If You Like... where we list similar-themed fiction and compare it to the Stone Soldiers book series.
SUPERNATURAL
This long-running series on the CW features monster-hunter brothers Sam and Dean Winchester (Jensen Ackles and Jared Padalecki) as they track down the terrible and kill it.
In the many years the show has been on, the brothers have faced off against nearly every kind of monster and legendary being imaginable. And where once this wasa typical monster-of-the-week show, the series has developed to include long-reaching story arcs similar to the X-Files UFO conspiracy.
In Season 8, viewers were shown a rebellion in Heaven, when a rogue Angel (Metatron, played by Curtis Armstrong) tricked series regular Castiel (Misha Collins) into sealing the gates of Heaven and casting out all the Angels. On the series, God has been absent over the past few seasons, as apocalyptic events have unfolded (and yes, the Winchesters have stopped the apocalypse on multiple occassions). In this power-vaccum, Metratron decides he's going to take over. The Winchesters have to figure out how to defeat Metatron as well as a host of other villains, including the last Knight of Hell, Abbaddon.
Supernatural features dark conspiracies, secret organizations, explosions, gunfu, butt-kicking and lots of clever dialogue. It airs weekly, on Tuesdays at 9PM on the CW. New episodes are normally posted to HuluPlus the following day, and you can catch up on past seasons on Netflix.
Highly Recommended.
Similarities to Stone Soldiers:
Stone Soldiers was at least partially inspired by Supernatural (I had recently finished binge-watching the series on Netflix right before plotting out my own series). But where the TV series follows two guys really, really good at killing monsters, Stone Soldiers follows a team of trained soldiers, backed up with the latest technology and the combined might of the United States Armed Forces. And while Sam and Dean may occassionally become supernatural, maybe even monsters, themselves, the Stone Soldiers are supernatural all the time, giving them an edge over evil--hence the book series motto Ex Malo Bonum: from evil, good.
Both book and TV series further share a brand of sarcastic humor that is found in so many popular fictional properties. With a wisecracking Vampire that may just be a subconscious blending of Dean Winchester and River Song, a conspircy-theorist werewolf, a sardonic lightning-casting stone soldier and quite a few other homages to some of the finest SFF to grace TV in the past few decades. In fact, the character of Maria Guerrera, Mark Kenslir's amnesiac wife, was actually inspired by the true-life marriage of Jared Padalecki and series guest star Genevieve Cortese (as Mr. Padalecki might make a pretty good Mark Kenslir).
Where the two fictional universes part company is in the world setting. Supernatural takes place in what is effectively the real world. Stone Soldiers' universe is one where magic has survived into the moden era. The population is basically aware that things not normal exist, but few want to believe. Stone Soldiers' universe lays somewhere between the real world and that of a comic book universe such as Marvel has created, but with a decidedly supernatural twist.
And of course, the Stone Soldiers don't have any cool muscle cars like the Winchesters' beautiful 1967 Impala.
And there's way more explosions in Stone Soldiers. Which is a shame. The Winchesters could really use some bigger guns.
If you like Supernatural, give Stone Soldiers a try. If you like Stone Soldiers and haven't watched Supernatural, you really need to lock yourself inside for a weekend or two and get a Netflix subscription. It's that good.

RIVER CITY COMIC EXPO CELEBRATION
To Celebrate the River City Comic Expo in Louisville, KY this weekend, Stone Soldiers is giving away Omnibus #1 (Mythical, Brothers in Stone and Blood and Stone) for free through Smashwords.com
From May 10, 2014 through May 12, 2014, use download code HC27Q to download the first three books in the Stone Soldiers series.
Mythical: Colonel Mark Kenslir is the last of the cold war supersoldiers, and he's just come back from the dead. With his memory partly missing, he sets out to remember who, or what killed him. Can the Colonel complete his last mission, or will the heart-eating shapeshifter he hunted kill him again?
"MYTHICAL is something old made new and a true pleasure to discover. And it's only the first step in what I predict is going to be an amazing series. Buy your ticket and get on board now!"
-Ron Fortier, Pulp Fiction Reviews
"C E Martin creatively wove together a story of super humans, other-worldly powers and the ever fascinating Greek mythology along with typical teenagers in to a thrilling story. The end leaves you hanging... in preparation for sequel?"
-Once Upon a Twilight
"This is an outright testosterone fest, I dare a manly man to read this and not like it. I liked it and will continue reading the series!"
-Mommsaysread.com
Brothers in Stone: Colonel Mark Kenslir, a cold warrior cursed to live forever, is rebuilding his team of Stone Soldiers after their defeat at the six-fingered hands of a prehistoric shapeshifter. But before he can recruit new soldiers to become men of living stone, reports come in of a new shapeshifter tearing out and consuming the hearts of victims in the American Southwest.
Kenslir enlists the help of one brave teenage girl and an FBI postcognitive empath to track down the new killer--only to discover there are now two prehistoric shapeshifters loose in the modern world. Falling back to their headquarters to regroup and replenish their numbers, Kenslir's military Detachment soon find themselves under assault from the ravenous shapeshifters--who are intent on pillaging the military's greatest supernatural treasures.
It becomes a race against time to stop the double threat of the shapeshifters inside the Stone Soldier's base, before they escape with world-changing power.
"The second of C.E. Martin's new pulp superhero action trilogy hits the ground running from page one and doesn't let up until the last... Super powered heroes versus the blackest magical forces in a pot-bubbling stew that will have you turning pages and losing track of time. Martin's work is addictive."
-Ron Fortier, Pulp Fiction Reviews
"There are a few shocks for our heroes and a few new characters added to the mix. People die. Hearts get eaten. BAD THINGS HAPPEN. Oh, and the booby-trapped DEATH CAVE? 3,000 times awesomer than any other death cave I've read about recently.
"Very fun, rather bloody, and full of badass fighters. *thumbs up*"
-Kelly @ Reading the Paranormal
Blood and Stone: Imprisoned at Alcatraz for over forty years, Dr. Laura Olson dreamed of two things: freedom and meeting back up with the man who spared her life and gave her a chance to serve her country from behind bars. All that changes when a shapeshifter comes to the Rock, ripping out and eating the hearts of the inmates to steal their memories and paranormal abilities. The shapeshifter sweeps through the prison and finally attacks Dr. Olson, stealing her heart and her undead powers before fleeing the country. When the shapeshifter declares himself to be the second coming of the Mayan blood god Kukulcan to the people of the Yucatan, America's anti-supernatural forces spring into action, recruiting Dr. Olson and giving her a chance for payback. The vampire now must work with a team of living stone soldiers, a teenager who can freeze objects with her mind and the super soldier who captured her long ago. Can the undead Doctor keep her new team alive long enough to get revenge, or will she succumb to her blood thirst and join with the new Kukulcan?
"The shapeshifting giant is back. Well, one of the shapeshifting giants, at least. And he's mad. He wants to restore his power base to what it was in the days when blood sacrifices were brought to him and he was feared and worshiped. So what does he do? He creates an undead army to enact his will. AS ONE DOES.
The world here is continuing to expand with new characters (hello, horny vampire!) and potential new enemies. Josie's abilities are growing and the newest soldiers are learning their way around their strength.
