New Release: Deliverance. Forgotten Colony, Book One
Deliverance is the first book in a new series based in the Forgotten universe. It doesn’t have Sheriff Duke in it (sorry), but it does have a new, awesome lead named Caleb Card.
You may already know what happened to the Pilgrim but now you can learn what happened to the Deliverance. It probably isn’t what you might expect.
Here’s the hook:
The war is over. Earth is lost. Running is the only option.
It may already be too late.
Earth is overcome by vicious xenotrife, reduced to a war-torn wasteland. The Deliverance will carry one final group of survivors to a new home across the stars.
Caleb is a survivor. A veteran Marine reluctant to give up the fight, yet eager for the promise of peace.
A promise too quickly broken.
An attack on the spacecraft finds Caleb front and center in a desperate defense, even as the ship makes its way into the black. It’s the hardest challenge he's ever faced, but what happens next will be much, much harder.
Because the xenotrife may not be the most dangerous threat on board...

A road trip through a wasteland.
A deadly new weapon.
A planet on the edge of catastrophe.

If he wants to stop the apocalypse, he’ll have to cross a treacherous wasteland where the cannibals and murderers are the least of his worries, and the demons that cover the landscape aren’t the most dangerous thing in his path.
The race is on, the doomsday clock is counting down, and if he fails it will be more than his wife and child that are caught in the fallout.
It’ll be the whole world.

New Release: Earth Unknown. Forgotten Earth, Book One
Some things are meant to stay forgotten...
Former Centurion Space Force Captain Nathan Stacker is a criminal. He isn’t proud of it, but the truth is there aren’t many options for men like him in a place like Proxima — humankind’s closest settlement to Earth. It’s surprisingly hard to make a clean start on a planet with a population of over one hundred million, and the only thing keeping him out of a containment center is a job as a courier for the Trust — the planet's ruthless crime syndicate. It isn’t the life he dreamed of when he entered the Space Force, but at least he has a wife who loves him.
Everything changes when Nathan returns home to find her violently murdered, killed over a dangerous secret he never knew she held. Charged with her homicide, desperate to uncover the truth and avenge her death, Nathan launches a bold escape to the only place in the universe he thinks he’ll be safe: Earth.
He couldn’t be more wrong.
He’s about to learn that some secrets are bigger than a planet. Some secrets are impossible to escape. And some secrets have the power to destroy more than one life and more than one world.
Some secrets have the power to destroy everything.
