THE LATEST AND GREATEST:
Introducing historiography
I’m honored to be a guest writer at Miller’s Book Review, an excellent Substack run by Joel J Miller, where I wrote about historiography: how we know what we know about the past. Check it out here and be sure to subscribe to Joel’s reviews.
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!
Ian Fleming as craftsman
I’m stirred, not shaken, to have a long-gestating essay on the craftsmanship of James Bond’s creator, Ian Fleming, published at the University Bookman ahead of the release of No Time to Die. Give the essay a read here, and definitely check out the novels that introduced 007 to the world.
