Last Of The Far Gods

Check this out!  Like, I know this guy!!!!!  In fact, I have him lined up as an insider advisor for my next novel, which will a present-day thriller.  (First I gotta finish the now-very-hefty Frozen Sky 3: Blindsided.)

Corbin Maxwell’s novel Last Of The Far Gods was released this week!

On the dusty surface of a dying Earth, the few remaining humans cling to whatever gods, old or new, that they can find, placing their faith in remnants of a forgotten past or the mysterious promises of a prophet without a face or shape. But the gods of the twelve towers remain in their massive cities, spinning new realities for those who would seek them out.

In this apocalyptic desert, Jack Chisholm, the last policeman of a lost city, lightning-quick with a gun, is bent on avenging his daughter’s death at the hands of the prophet’s followers. He means to lay waste to anything and anyone who interferes with his quest, except his son Pete, a teenage boy with a quest of his own. Joined by the small-town sheriff Quinn Barkis and a sickly prostitute called Bucket, the small band of survivors sets out toward the last of the city towers, to seek the Far Gods and end the prophet’s reign of terror, each uncovering a destiny that could save their world or destroy it forever.

Updates & Errata

  1.  We’re heading into the final day-and-a-half of the big ebook sale!  See info again here.
  2. My German is not what it should be since my wife is German!  In the new Visionarium anthology, the title of my short story “Pressure” is “Druck,” not Die Austrocknun.”  My bad.   😛
  3.  I really am actually kinda finally for real getting to the end of Frozen Sky 3.  Yesterday I went over 600 pages (this is writer math; the book is now 600 manuscript pages long after boiling the previously-written 580 pages back down to 540 pages to keep it mean and tight), which means FS3 is officially longer than Interrupt.  FS3 is loaded with aliens and bad guys and astrophysics and politics and space battles and shocking revelations about the evolution of life on Europa.  That’s right!!!  It’s a sci fi thriller!!!!!
  4.  This poor schlep is FNEE Lieutenant Pereira.  You do not want to be him.sneak peak2

Fun News From Germany

My short story “Die Austrocknun,” probably better known as “Pressure,” has been translated into German in an Austrian anthology series called Visionarium.

If you’re in the Fatherland, you can find it in print and on Kindle.  Or if you’re bilingual, it’s also in the U.S.   😉
