5.0 out of 5 stars Review of  The Harkers Legacy by Teel James Glenn Bruce J. Blanchard "Darkenwulf" (Des Moines, IA)    Teel James Glenn in The Harker Legacy has given Bob Howard new life with an all star cast of Jonathan and Mina Harker and someone else you know under another name, William Pratt. This alternate lifeline has sparked the urge in Bob Howard to see the world. Armed with his six gun and typewriter, he finds himself in England. A visit to a pub...brings Bob to the Harker estate and the adventure takes on darker tones of danger, black magic, and sacrifice. What he will find is the Harkers' connection with Dracula has left a taint on their souls. Teel Glenn vividly portrays the cowboy side of Howard with all the sensitivity of the writer who places a high value on those he cares for. ... As to the writing, damned good.

A Faire Review!

I'm delighted to report that I've had an A One review of my renaissance faire mystery novel "Murder Most Faire" from Post Mortem Press (Available at Amazon.com) by the reviewer at the New York Journal of Books. Head to their site for the full review- but here is a tiny excerpt:

"... Partly based on events in the author’s own life and partly pure fiction, Murder Most Faire is written in a livre noir style reminiscent of Mickey Spillaine’s I, the Jury. It’s an easy read, peppered with literary and cinematic references, and the climax is worthy of an Errol Flynn movie."

A busy couple of months!

It has been over a month since I've had time to post here--a great trip to Montreal and lots of writing have kept me busy.
I've had two book come out from the British publisher Anachron Press for their new pulpline.

The Harker Legacy, a paranormal thriller is the first in a series of short books about Bob Howard -pulp writer and adventurer. The tales are an alternate world take on the 1930s and Howard-'father' of Conan, Kull and Solomon Kane- ranges the globe meeting alternate world versions of such famous people as T. E. Lawrence, Boris Karloff, Winston Churchill, Adolph Hitler and many others. The second tale "Fist of the Fae" is already in the pipeline for a May release.


O'Leary's Luck is a modern hardboiled mystery featuring Jon Shadows - an unconventional hero. Son of a famous world traveling adventurer (yes-Dr. Shadows for those who follow my writings)- gets involved in a deadly puzzle in modern New Orleans. It is also first in what I hope will be a series for Anachron's Pulpline. ( The Secret of Wolf Island, A Jon Shadows novel, can be found at Gypsyshadow.com).

Let me say now, btw--I LOVE the covers on these two- they completely capture the feel of the stories...

OOPS!!!

I haven’t posted to this blog for a bit because I’ve been just a bit busy:

In October I had a story in Metahuman Press “Pirates & Swashbucklers Volume 2”,  a new collection of plup alternate world tales in “Adventures in Otherwhen” from Books for a Buck, in November I have “Songs of a Warrior Priest “ coming out from Whiskey Creek Press,  “Murder Most Faire from Post Mortem Press in December, And “The Bloodstone Confidential” from Pro Se Press in January.

And a couple of sales to Archeon Press - two Pulp novellas which will be out in January. Not to forget a story of mine will be in issue 361 of Weird Tales.

Other than that I’ve choreographed fights for a couple of stage shows, wrote and acted in a radio serial and have done stunts for a couple of films. Just a relaxed fall….
