I spent seven years in the Navy, twenty-seven years in a bad marriage. Then after four years of being single again, I was married to the love of my life Manya. Some people are lucky; I am one of them.

One Way To Hell: EB the Rabbantine ~ Available now!
Set in the same universe as Transport Unfriendly Skies and the Mongruxx series.
EB the Rabbantine strolls through Obscurum Altum Megalopolis like he owns the place. The Last Vegas district, is where he hangs his fedora. An engraved stainless 1911 pistol, a heavy twin-barreled derringer with twin 410 gauge shotgun shells, and an ancient Benchmade knife make up his armament.
EB the Rabbantine is a private constable, at least that’s what it says on his card. Beyond that, he finds things, people, memories. Rabbantine are good at that. He’s good at that.
Valentine is his sometimes on-again, off-again girlfriend, ex-wife, and occasional partner. With all of the worst attributes mixed in.
You’ve got a problem; someone’s gotten themselves dead, taken your women or your gold, EB’s the one to see. If he can’t get it back, at least he can give you retribution.
And sometimes that is enough.
But Obscurum Altum Megalopolis is a huge, dangerous place. One vast city with enough geography to cover a mass the size of Russia.
The elite live in the upper layers in each district, high above the dirty streets, prostitutes, and squalor. EB, not so much.
Welcome to Last Vegas…

Thank you for choosing to read my books. I hope that you get to experience it as I have. They are meant to challenge you in thought, to be evocative and to facilitate you thinking in ways that perhaps you have not before. So tighten up your body armor, make sure you keep a round in the chamber and have a good supply of cigars on hand, my friend, for it is a long walk following the path of the wolf.

We’re here to change the sheets!
Quote - Mongruxx: Starship Umbra (Book 2)
Mungford walked across the galley to the bar, where they stood. Pulling up a stool he said "Whisky neat." Taking his rifle off of his back, he laid it on the scarred bar top. Griff quickly grabbed a nondescript reused bottle and poured him two fingers. Slapping it down in front of him, Mungford picked it up and drank it all. Griff watching with eyebrows raised said "Tough day at the office governor?"
"You could say that," he said and spit on the floor.

Nervous E. Sutton and Ryi would be returning soon. Hillary entered her access code and was scanned by the device. Accepting it, the brig disengaged the lockdown protocol. Opening the hatch, she was assailed by the choking smell of Dodd Kazenski piss soaked sheets. Turning around, she closed the hatch and reengaged the lockdown protocol.
Quote - Mongruxx: Starship Umbra (Book 2)
Akira watched it slide away from them. "No, they don't. All of these are ideas and arguments, lost thoughts, and suppressed wants. The gestalt mind is rife with the jetsam of damage across thousands of lives." She stopped walking for a moment, collecting her thoughts. "Even so, don't touch anything that you don't have to."
Quote - Mongruxx: Starship Umbra (Book 2)
It was there he felt it. The beat, the movement of space creating time within a smaller area than the Planck second. The learned perception of experiential time. In that moment, he felt a little of what the gods all knew.
Quote - Mongruxx: WolfPac (Book 1)
Clinicus pulled out an old wooden stool and sat with a satisfied sigh. "It does not my friend. Death is a doorway that we all pass through many times," he said. "Most enter the river of sleep, forgetting all that they knew and are eventually being reborn to repeat this over and over again" breathed Clinicus. "But some are more fortunate, such as us. We may die many times in battle but will rise again. Seven times. Always remembering, always learning," he said.
Quote - Mongruxx: WolfPac (Book 1)
The cultists were a dirty ugly lot. Covered in filth and the skins of their enemies. Dangerous ugly marks burned deep in their flesh that caused dark thoughts to fill one's head. Old Zekq crawled on around all fours with them and then began to dance his dark dance of madness. Ucktus halted his vessel in front of them knowing the Tavak had recognized them or they would have all been dead by now. Ucktus walked to the front of his vessel and called out to Tavak.
"Tavak, gods rot ye misbegotten soul!"
Quote - Mongruxx: WolfPac (Book 1)
Coming back to reality from this memory he saw E. Sutton walking towards him. Sam's smile faded from his face, and his hand dropped to the butt of his gun.
Quote - Mongruxx: WolfPac (Book 1)
Back in front of the container, the flashlight rolled on the ground and came to rest, pointing the light partly inside the shipping container. There, hung from the ceiling, was Nick Pelito. Cut and skinned like an animal. His soft organs gone, the meat of his legs and arms cutaway like a butchered hog.
His mouth hung open in a silent scream.
