New Release: Nimrod Squad
I’m very happy to announce the first release of this year for my personal imprint, BWB Publishing. Not only did I have a blast writing Nimrod Squad, but I also was able to stick to my writing schedule and get this novel out on time for a March release. (Just barely, but did it!)
So what is Nimrod Squad about? It’s a fast-paced action adventure following the exploits of four misfits who ultimately band together to become Nimrods, as bounty hunters are called in Havenworld. There’s Cash Murdock, a former cop who trusts no one except his AI companion Deejay; Mateo Lonergan, a young warrior whose wide-eyed naivety is matched only by his lethal fighting skills; Jinx la Fox, a talented hacker and thief with a knack for making powerful enemies, and Happy, a gun-for-hire with a scarred face and a bad attitude who can’t outrun her mysterious past.

When a massive bounty is posted for a rogue general and his rebel army, the above individuals are forced to work together, but can they overcome their mutual distrust to overcome the odds against them? They’ll find out over a caper that involves breaking into the most advanced Haven in the country, creating an uneasy alliance with a Special Agent assigned to bring them in, and going up against Kilgore: the most dangerous killer alive.
Nimrod Squad is greatly inspired by my favorite anime, Cowboy Bebop, along with other misfit adventure stories like Guardians of the Galaxy. There’s something satisfying about creating these flawed characters and bringing them together to form an unlikely family of sorts. The character dynamics were fun to create, and even I was surprised by what some of the characters did and where they wound up by the end of the tale.
I think you’ll get a kick out of Nimrod Squad if you’re a fan of the aforementioned influences and similar stories. The book releases on 3/31/19 and can be purchased at Amazon. More info can be found on the official website. Hope you get a chance to check it out. Meanwhile, please enjoy the promotional video below!
