More New Reads for the Library

I guess the Big Based Book Sale is kinda’ like the old street machine  swap meets (or a flea market, if you’re not a car guy): you set up your own table to sell high performance parts, but wind up shopping when you’re supposed to be selling.

If you want a fighting chance to find a good read uncontaminated with the Woke Virus, I can’t think of a better place for that than the BBBS. Last time I picked up some e-books (most still unread), and I couldn’t help doing it again this time. Here are the new additions to my library:

Storm Front (Twilight of the Gods Book 1) by Christopher G. Nuttall; Brad Fraunfelter

In 1941, Adolf Hitler didn’t declare war on the United States. Now, in 1985, the Third Reich stretching from the coast of France to the icy wastes of Eastern Russia, appears supremely powerful. With a powerful force of nuclear warheads and the finest military machine on Earth, there is no hope for freedom for the billions who groan under its rule. Adolf Hitler’s mad dreams have come to pass.

And yet, all is not well in the Reich. The cold war with the United States and the North Atlantic Alliance is destroying the Reich’s economy, while a savage insurgency in South Africa – a war the Reich cannot win and dares not lose – is sapping its military strength. And, while the Reich Council struggles to find a way to save the Reich from its own weaknesses, a young German girl makes a discovery that will shake the Reich to its core. But the Reich Council will not go quietly into the night …

Mutagenesis: The New World

by Jordan Allen

Livelong. Once thought to be a miracle drug that enhanced human beings beyond imagination, in reality, it transformed them into feral monstrosities that tore the world asunder. With their enhanced durability and desire to consume, the mutants devoured millions and, one by one, the world powers fell. The humans who survived fled the cities, hoping one day that they would rise again to reclaim their lost lands.

In the year 2115, sixty-five years after the fall of the Old World, Jason Cooper thought his idyllic lifestyle in the walled settlement of Shackford would last forever, but a mutant attack brings that to a swift end. Jason embarks on a journey to find his missing family while fighting for survival against the horrors of the new world, from the chillingly deserted Texan wasteland to the reclaimed city of New Dallas ruled by the enigmatic King Mercer.

The ravaged wasteland that was once the United States of America is more dangerous than ever. The slavers are looking for their next prize, the raiders are looking for their next loot and the seemingly endless roaming mutants are looking for their prey.

Jason and Sniper wander the road north in search of a survivor from Jason’s fallen hometown of Shackford when they come across a man named Camlorn who speaks of a group who claim to be able to reverse the transformation of a human into a mutant. This leaves the lingering question in their mind. Could this nightmare world finally be turned back?

Gun Magus

by N.R. LaPoint

The last thing Kenneth Jericho needed was a gunfight and car chase with human traffickers. What started as a bad morning only got worse.

A flash of light sends Ken to a strange world filled with magic, hideous monsters, beautiful women, and seemingly unlimited ammo.

With pistol in hand, Ken is thrown into a race against time to stop a local ganglord’s reign of terror. But is the thug the brains behind the violence, or is someone – or something – else pulling his strings?

Trapped 1300 years in the past, they have one mission: survive.

In the 23rd century, humanity has been hunted to the verge of extinction by an alien race. When an exploratory ship accidentally travels back in time to Viking age Scandinavia, the human race is given a second chance. Pursued by the power-hungry King Harald, the four surviving crew members join a ragtag band of Vikings as they pillage their way across Europe. It will take all their ingenuity, courage and technical know-how just to survive. But survival is only the beginning. To save humanity, they must somehow return to the stars.

Thus begins a decades-long effort to teach the Vikings to build a craft capable of reaching space—a ship that will come to be known as the Iron Dragon.

THE DREAM OF THE IRON DRAGON is the first installment in the 5-part Saga of the Iron Dragon.

And, while I was spreading word about the Based Book Sale, I crossed paths with Chance Paladin, who missed the submission deadline but had two books on sale. I picked those up, too:
