When you write as much as I do, you are bound to meet other authors. Here are some of my favorite books that they have written, listed in alphabetical order. I know you will love them like I did. Enjoy!

Praise for The Flowers of the Moon:
“…Very good. As good as if not better than Part 1 . . . hits all the right notes for sword and sorcery with some interesting spins”
“Imaginative. Evocative.”
More Praise for Alexander Palacio:
“A cracking adventure filled romp a la ‘Weird Tales’- I’m looking forward to further installments. Brilliant!”
“Palacio’s nimble prose takes you on a voyage to another place and another time, to an eldritch land where the gods yet live, where blood is the currency of power and sacrifice. His landscapes will immerse and delight you, his characters are involving and lifelike, yet fresh and untrite.”
“Fast paced swords and magic, what else could you want?”
Fables For Young Wolves is a book for young men in a world that does not want them. It is a collection of fables and parables that explore the meaning and consequences of strength in a harsh and dangerous world.
“There would be no communion with the Allfather just yet, as Spencer’s Valkyrie had different plans. For Spencer, the road to Odin’s great hall passed through Human Resources.”
Life hasn’t been easy for Spencer Grunhauer. Fired from his NYC nonprofit job for writing a “reactionary” manifesto during work hours, he drowns his sorrows with high-end liquor and online porn while raging against the “Davos Daddies” and their plans to crush Western civilization. But when he meets a young woman on a BDSM dating site, Spencer takes it upon himself to indoctrinate her in the tenets of “the Project,” leading him down a rabbit hole of public humiliation and mental illness, culminating in a ill-conceived plot to take the “Davos Daddies” down once and for all.
NUTCRANKR is a comic examination of fringe ideology, social atomization, and sexual dysfunction in modern America. Dan Baltic’s debut novel is a sardonic look at a certain type of Extremely Online character we’re all too familiar with and what happens when their delusions and flights of fancy come into contact with the real world.
“Dan Baltic has written the Don Quixote of the digital era. Spencer Grunhauer is a man out of time, adhering to the martial values and lofty language of a bygone era. He can’t quite get the world around him to conform to the model of how he believes things should be. Maybe he needs to log off, go outside, and touch grass, but every time he does, he tilts at modern windmills (like pussy hats) and hilarity ensures, always with him as the punchline. He’s hardly fazed, however, for it’s all part of his “Project,” a Zarathustrean plan to transvaluate the depraved values of our world and usher in a new era of the Übermensch. The way Baltic pulls this off, by contrasting the ideals within Spencer’s head and the reality of the feminist world around him, is truly an impressive literary feat, and the fact that he keeps it consistently laugh-out-loud funny puts NUTCRANKR in very elite company with the likes of Pynchon and David Foster Wallace. If you think I’m being hyperbolic, read it and see for yourself. If you’re anything like me, you won’t stop laughing.” — Astral, host of Astral Flight Simulation

The patient, calling himself “Snapper,” reveals his past to Dr. Parce. Snapper claims to hail from an alternate world populated by animals. The interviews, essays, and drawings given by Snapper weave an extraordinary coming-of-age tale about oppressed sheep, corporate pigs, and the search for a primitive power lurking deep inside the earth. Snapper’s bizarre world is rife with loss, love, and an ancient strength he must find in himself if his people are to survive.
As Dr. Parce is drawn in by Snapper’s fantastical story, his skepticism wears thin. How far did he allow himself to be entangled in this patient’s delusions? The investigator may be left wondering which one of them has truly lost their grip on reality.
