First few chapters of the CULL - Bloodline
NOTE: PG-18 (graphic violence)
WARNING: Read Chapter 4 with the lights on!

Black thunderheads obscured by the oppressive night air. Closer they move; drawn into explosive detonation. The first thunderclap announced a prodigious tempest. The strengthened glass wall shuddered as the sound waves tried to penetrate the quiet interior with their full force. Anka Syzmanski’s step hung suspe Read more of this blog post »

"I'm not into thrillers. Although I enjoy the odd movie with a fast-paced story line, good plot and solid characters, my reading tastes lean more toward sci-fi, fantasy and horror.

A Christmas Carol: a reimagining of Charles Dickens' classic Christmas tale:
"“There was an unsurmountable argument against the existence of the image reflected in the relucent brass plaque attached to the wall alongside the dark oak door: Jacob Robert Marley, ‘Bob’ to his friends, of which there were few indeed, was dead.”

Hi Rod. Nice to hear from you. Glad you are enjoying the series. It started out as a birthday gift for my cousin's daughter but readers wanted more, so it grew from there. The final book in the series will be out at the end of the year, but in the meantime if you like the strong female characters in 'the CULL' series, take a look at 'Outsourced' and its sequel 'Primed'. Major Bridget Mason, a Defense Intelligence Agency agent, is gaining quite a following from readers.
Best wishes,
Eric
Hi Eric thanks for the accepting me as a friend I am currently enjoying the 4 part Cull series
