Some wild-eyed, five-foot tall lunatic with pink hair grabs your shirt and screams up at you,"Have you paid your dues, Erik?"

[Atla]

You stare that little freak right back in the eye and remember what ole Erik Testerman always says at a time like that...
"Have you paid your dues, Erik?"
"Yes sir, the book is in the mail."

(And its toxic masculinity is gonna blow you away.)

Enter Prehistoric (West Of Prehistoric Book 2)

So what is this? This is the sequel to the great American science-fiction western that was published last fall. See here for the thread.

Don't worry, there ain't any, "What was the writer thinking when he used the color of blood in the opening scene?"

Nope, none of that garbage your English Teachers went over back in school as they ruined you from reading for pleasure.

Just good old fashioned story telling of finely crafted action/adventure, where bullets fly, dinosaur's die, and people get punched in the face. And there is no hidden meaning. Anywhere.

What you read is what you get.

And it's glorious.

The E-Book/Kindle version came out this morning. The Paperback version will be out in a couple of weeks.

Enjoy.

P.S. If you didn't get the Big Trouble In Little China reference, shame on you. (I had a hard time figuring out which quote to butcher.)

Currently ranked #4 in New Releases under Western Science Fiction

I hadn't really paid attention to the rankings yet so I don't really understand them. And I'm sure its a small genre...

But from some quick digging, the #1 is by some guy who has 18 million books in print... so I reckon fourth ain't bad!

Congratulations man! It's awesome to see this working out for you.

I'll be watching for paperbacks. Autograph? Where's the 3rd?

 

[UncleWillie]

Let us know when the paperbacks come out. I hate e books.

 

[Atla]

Well, it's been bouncing between 3rd and 4th place on the New Release list. I'll take that as a big win.

Reviews have started rolling in, and they've been good so far.

And now I'm hitting the third one pretty hard. I started a new job that's taken away my online time, and by the time I come home I'm pretty much fried, but I've been plugging away at it. And I've a two week long plant shut down coming up at the end of the month, and my goal is to spend every single day working on the third book to make up ground on it.

I'm gonna bet another week. I wish they came out at the same time, but publishers love pushing the e-book versions first.

Couldn't have done it without you and the other readers buying copies and helping me with the drafts.

Once the paperback's come out, I'm gonna start pimping the autographs.

I also started an Author FB page. My wife has been bugging me for some time to do this, because I've 15 years of personal junk on FB that I don't want people to see. And I've been very selective over the years as to who I add as a friend. So add me if ya want!

I may have ordered a dozen.

Gettin' there! #2 this morning.

Arrived a day early!

Arrived a day early!

Mine showed up early also!

I had to take a quick promo picture for social media. (It's time to start dropping royalty checks on six shooters btw...)

 

[UncleWillie]

I ordered mine today. It had better be as good as the first or I will challenge you to a duel.

Personally? I think its better written than the first.

 

[Rnuovrcj5]

I got the copy you sent me converted to my Kindle (really easy btw) and stayed up WAY too late the other night reading it. It was awesome. Every bit as good as the first one. My only gripe was that it was easy to read it that fast . Now I've gotta wait impatiently for the next one again. I'll snag a hard copy of the first two here soon too just to have around.

 

[Caver Dave]

Pulled down both earlier via Unlimited... but had a couple others from the local BFVa Library that need to be consumed first (I swear, unless you read fawking "Harlequin" type bullshit, you're SOL with these unconsolidated county/regional VA libraries )

I'll keep you on the list for the third one. I'm glad it was converted easy to kindle, that'll help a lot getting the draft read.

Heh, somehow my daughter's preschool teacher found out that I had written a book. She just finished the first and ordered the second, and she's also the only one who got the Land Before Time movie reference at the end of the first book.

If I can figure out how to get my book stocked at the VA, I'll send them free copies to help 'masculate' their libraries. If you know how to do this, let me know. If it's as simple as just walking in there and sticking a book on a shelf, I'll send ya some free ones.

Appears my abbreviation of "Virginia" was mistaken for "Veteran's Administration"?
If not and the offer still stands, more than happy to ask the good folks at our local (multi-county) Public Library (now that the panic-demic is over)...

Rofl. Sure, if your local library in VirginiA will take a set, I'd be willing to send 'em to ya.

You've had almost a week now to read it - don't hold back, tell me what you think.

 

[ncpartsguy]

Life has gotten in the way - I have yet to crack the cover open.

 

[UncleWillie]

I just finished the book I was reading. ON my table are two brand new books. Eddie Gallagher's The Man in the Arena, and your book. Which to read...

Well, as much as my books rock, don't neglect your kids for them.

Oooo. Flip a coin, because as much as I want you to read mine, I'd really like to read The Man in Arena.
