I'm delighted to report that top reviewer Joo has recently reviewed my book 'The Black Fox'.

Here is what she thought about the book -
4.0 out of 5 stars The Black Fox 26 April 2015
By Joo Format:Kindle Edition.
This is the third story featuring Gavin Shawlens, a biochemist who gets caught up in bad guys plans for world domination in the previous two books.
This installment has him on the run with special forces trained Zoe as he has knowledge that must not get out. Problem is, Gavin has no idea what this knowledge is so they go on the run whilst trying to find out what this knowledge might be with very few friends.

This is a fast paced thriller with a few deus ex machina twists. I found it easy reading and I enjoyed the relationship that Zoe and Gavin have now built up.

Yes, please seek out indie authors--we are getting a bit submerged these days, so it;='s harder to be visible!

All,
Just stumbled on this thread...thanks Sean! I'm going to be a little different. I'll mention in passing my 21 books (even the sci-fi can be classified as thrillers), but I'd rather just invite you to visit my website http://stevenmmoore because there's a lot of content there, much of it free--blog posts on current events and the writing business, book and movie reviews, author interviews, free short stories and novellas, and "News and Notices from the Writing Trenches," my online newsletter posted on most Fridays.
After your visit there, you might want to donate to the cause and buy one of my books, entertaining reading at a reasonable cost.

Nice post, Steven. Gonna have to visit your site since it sounds like stuff right up my alley.

In the meantime, I just finished my fourth book and revised it and sent it to my editor for evaluation. My fourth one is a First in a new mini-series called The Hunters. It will be closely tied to my very first trilogy, The Knox Mission. The Knox Mission follows two federal agents, John Knox and Malik Sharif, on their journey through an ever-changing United States, along with their pursuit of various assassins, discovering government coverups and conspiracy along the way. Please visit me, read my blogs heavily based on current events and my emotional reactions to things, as well as all things Knox Mission, at www.jason-e-fort.com

Here are my books currently available on Amazon:
Misguided: The Jesus Assassin


Mistaken: The Arbiter


Misled: The Klansman: The Knox Mission - Special Edition Set

Jason,
I'll have to check out some of your books. I'll have a wee bit more time for R&R reading this summer.
BTW, because this is an indie-oriented thread, among the freebies I offer at my website, announced in a recent newsletter (maybe today's?), is a PDF where I compiled the various blog lessons on writing fiction--it's especially oriented to indies and intended to be a little extension and modernization of King's book. Query by email for a copy. (This isn't a ploy to collect email addresses--I don't do that. My newsletter, for example, is online only.)
Take care,
Steve

Hi all,

Thanks to Sean for starting this valuable thread!! I'm new to the Indie author scene having just published my first book Stillness which is currently on Goodreads giveaway.

Some secrets won’t stay buried…

When people start to succumb to a virulent strain of plague in the seemingly idyllic hamlet of Stillness, the CDC is called in to investigate. Pulled from her training with the Epidemic Intelligence Service, Dr. Lynne Bosworth is tapped to head the investigation.

Many questions surround the outbreak, not the least of which is how did plague find its way to the heartland of America? Determined to find the answers and her own way out of the long shadow cast by her father, Lynne embarks for Iowa. Unable to isolate an index case of bubonic plague, patient zero is traced to Nikolai Markov; an old Russian bio warfare scientist.

Rumors of a bioterror attack are rampant.

Under examination, the bacteria present Lynne with many anomalies but few answers. The antibiotic resistance noted in the field is absent in the lab, while a synthetic gene is found that seemingly has no purpose. For her superiors it’s enough to deem the outbreak a biological attack, a conclusion that Lynne does not share. For her, something about the whole incident remains…elusive.

In search of evidence to either prove or disprove the bioterror claim, she crosses paths with FBI Special Agent Caleb Fine. Together, they come to believe that something other than a biological attack is going on in Stillness, and that the answer to what may lie in solving the fifteen year old murders of Bobby and Maggie Sullivan.

As the body count rises and the pressure mounts, they delve deeper into the shadowy past of this quiet town; in the process exposing secrets long thought forgotten until finally uncovering the shocking truth behind the cause of the outbreak.

Currently available on amazon in both kindle and print version.

Happy reading all!!

Thanks Sean. Am just dropping over for

It has received less-than-stellar reviews - many hate one of the lead protagonists, female detective, as an unsympathetic character (and anger ball), some point out editing issues (or lack thereof), some like the story and structure. It is a unique story that's for sure.

It's FREE across Amazon right now, so do check it out. Would love more feedback:
