The first book of this series is now free on Amazon. It is good. Think before you jump, as you may have to cash out for the rest of them.

By the way - there is an omnibus edition if you decide you must have them all.

And the author is worth following as well here on g+

Still going!

I still don't know what started it, but with the help of your reshares, Episode One is sitting at #21 in Sci-fi and #9 in Cyberpunk (for some reason). So if it's not too much trouble, let's keep it going around.

Europe seems to be reaching a post-religious state. Interesting differences between neighbor countries though.

Since children from christian families reject religion at a higher rate than those of muslim families islam may well at some point become the biggest religion over here. But only because all religion is dwindling away.

Americans please look at these numbers and also note that our kids do not need to shoot up their schools. More religion in school is not the answer. It goes much deeper into your society.

It's been great working with Renee James and team over the past year as they brought the vision of Ampere to today's reality. I wish them success. It's a great team and a great opportunity to help steer the industry forward.

The death of a thousand licks

The death of a thousand licks

I got careless. Stupid.

I relaxed. Should have known better.

It was so quiet. I was on my knees, cleaning the lowest bookshelf. I never noticed the two black ninjas sneaking up on me.

I never even got to put up a fight. They had me on my back, pinned to the floor in a fraction of a second. Without a sound. The torture started immediately.

The death of a thousand licks is really a variant of waterboarding. It leaves you feeling like you are constantly about to drown. Whenever you think you are able to draw a breath a tongue gets jammed down you throat. With two of them in a coordinated attack I could not even collect my thoughts enough for any basic defense. I was dying. At some point I at least managed to get my phone out and get a picture. I wanted those who found me to understand what had happened.

And then they were gone. Like they had never been there. This single picture is the only proof of my near death.
