Ya shabab!
Just a short update, the sequel to my 2019 novella, "Wergild: A Heartwarming Tale of Coldblooded Vengeance," is finally available on Amazon.
More wild and wicked tales of Tuppence, the Fiend, Lady Isabel, and all their friends and victims can be found in the novel, "Tuppence and the Devil." If you liked the first, you'll love the second.

Skiathos: A Space Adventure
Comrades, for the next week, "Skiathos," A Space Adventure, is on sale on Amazon Kindle for just just .99 cents.
This ain't no April fooling around! Don't walk, run, to get you're discount copy of the best of science fiction around.
Nadja Bikram traveled to the distant planet of Skiathos to work one problem, a puzzle that had vexed her for seven years. On reaching the savage desert world, she found the survey team she was to join in disarray and its leader missing. As a State Department officer, it was up to her to take command and sort things out, but she swiftly discovered the harsh and brutal landscape held a hidden danger so lethal and dreadful that it threatened them all. Nadja would need to use her every wit, risking her life and the lives of those around her, to discover its origin, but would she find the answer before it was too late?
Regards,
Boris

A Simple One-Off Murder
Comrades,
I'm in the process of drafting a sequel to my dark fantasy novella "Wergild," but the item probably won't be available until mid 2021.
Can't wait that long? Neither can I.
I've prepared a short story that is now available on Amazon Kindle, A Simple One-Off Murder, which is a continuation of the tale of Tuppence and the Fiend.
If you are interested, I'd be happy to put a copy in your hands. Just drop me a direct message on Goodreads and provide an email to which I can send the Kindle link. (I promise not to put you on any mailing lists.)
It will be my pleasure.
Boris
