Rick Foster's Blog

Kicking off the fall reading craze, I will be in Austin on September 15th doing a book signing at The Book Stop at noon.  Stop by to pick-up your signed copy of Sandman and chat with me about the book.  You will enjoy reading about the adventures of Joe, a marine on his way back from the war in Vietnam when the cargo plane he is riding in crashes near a remote island in the Pacific.

His only visitors are a vacationing couple and a group of pirates out to kill them.  Their presence on the island present enormous challenges for Joe, that provide the opportunity for death, love and possible rescue from the island.

On Feb 9th of 2012, Rick Foster's literary thriller entitled Sandman was published.  It is a tale about a US Marine that has been stranded on the island for 18 years when a wealthy couple decides to sail to the island in search of adventure.  Their plans change when pirates hijack their boat and attack them.  What follows is an edge of your seat thriller with a touch of romance, conspiracy, murder and  moments of Texas humor.

The book is now available for sale on Amazon, Barnes & Noble and Smashwords in both paperback and eBook format. For more information, look at the Sandman website.
