THE LATEST AND GREATEST:
Baron Bagge at Miller’s Book Review
I’m pleased to have a review of Alexander Lernet-Holenia’s eerie, otherworldly novella Baron Bagge at Miller’s Book Review. You can read it here, though be warned—there are spoilers! I’ve previously written about the art and science of historiography and reviewed Robin Lane Fox’s Homer and His Iliad there. Check out any of those pieces and be sure to subscribe to Joel’s reviews.
Quid, a Substack newsletter from Jordan M Poss
I'm giving Substack a shot in 2025! Right now I plan to use it as a semi-weekly digest, and I'm calling it Quid. Check out of the first issue here, and please do subscribe if you like what you find.
Now available: The Snipers
My latest, a short novel set during World War II, is now available! The Snipers tells the story of JL Justus, an American scout/sharpshooter tasked with finding and killing a German sniper during the Battle of Aachen in October 1944. Readers have already praised its pacing, action, authenticity, its shocking twist and surprisingly emotional ending.
You can learn more about The Snipers here.
The Snipers is available in paperback and Kindle editions on Amazon.com.
Part I of The Wælsings’ Revenge is now available!
I’m pleased to have the first part of a three-part alliterative verse epic titled The Wælsings’ Revenge published in the online literary journal Illuminations of the Fantastic. This poem is a hypothetical Anglo-Saxon version of the story of Volsung and Sigmund. Portions of Part III will appear in my forthcoming novel The Wanderer. To read Part I, visit Illuminations here, and be sure to check out the other epic verse projects in the same issue!
