Sorry it took a bit longer than expected, but Tactics of Conquest, book 3 of the Stellar Conquest series is out! You can find it right here (http://amzn.com/B00HX0KVEK). Given that Comes the Destroyer was published in October, and I put out Switchback (http://amzn.com/B00HHLNZXE) with my brother in between times, three months is not a bad rate of writing. It’s about what I was shooting for. That means I hope I will get Conquest of Earth, book 4 of Stellar Conquest, out in April. However, we will be preparing to move house in that timeframe, so that may slow me down. Also, I am committed to writing another book in between, and I still have my day job. Ah, the life of an indie writer. It’s a hard way to make an easy living, believe me, but it’s a lot of fun.
I’m also working on a couple of straight, non-sci-fi mystery-thrillers, titled Loose Ends and In A Bind. The first one I’ve already released as a novelette within the Eight the Hard Way anthology (http://amzn.com/B00H8OZW1I), but I intend to expand it into a novel at some point, and then the follow-up is half written. However, other things have gotten in the way so those have gone on the back burner. Here are the two covers to give you a preview:
The aforementioned extra book I am committed to writing is a co-project with a bestselling sci-fi author, rather like Russell Blake is doing with Clive Cussler. I can’t give you details right now, because the contracts and so on have not been signed, but they will be first person in a lighter style than my other work, and will spin off from the other author’s main series in the same universe. All in all, quite exciting times.
nice covers! are those Cal Corwin ones Jun’s work, or did you use someone else? hope all is going well with the new release – is your brother happy with how Switchback is going?

Yes, those are Jun’s. Switchback sold about 80 copies this month so far, so that’s a good start. Tactics is moving up as people see that it’s out.
