CUTTING WEAKER ENEMIES TO RIBBONS WITH THE SPEED & FINESSE OF A GATLING GUN.

NOTE: Not gonna lie, I've seen some decent-enough gunpla model kits posted on this website, but this piece still takes a massive crap on every single one I've ever seen on Tumblr thus far. It's game over, man.

Check out War Whore if you liked Drake’s Hammers Slammers or Laumer’s BOLO series. You’re welcome.

Excerpt:

Captain Axel and his platoon leaders gathered next to the lead tank in the column. Twenty-four vehicles crammed the company assembly area, their hulls angular and menacing in the dying light. Extra boxes of ammo, rations, and sensor-scattering nets filled the bustle racks with additional equipment strapped to the hulls. The convoy resembled a string of deadly pack mules loaded for war. “We look ready, but are we?”

Buy it here.

“Don’t handicap your children by making their lives easy.”

Robert A. Heinlein was a prolific and influential science fiction writer known for his imaginative storytelling and exploration of social and political themes. Here are five facts about Robert A. Heinlein:

Prolific Authorship: Heinlein wrote numerous science fiction novels, short stories, and essays throughout his career. Some of his most well-known works include "Stranger in a Strange Land," "Starship Troopers," and "The Moon is a Harsh Mistress." His writings often reflected his libertarian and individualistic views.

Military Service: Heinlein had a career in the military before becoming a full-time writer. He graduated from the U.S. Naval Academy in 1929 but was medically discharged due to pulmonary tuberculosis in 1934. This experience influenced some of his military-themed science fiction works, such as "Starship Troopers."

Political and Philosophical Themes: Heinlein's works often delved into political and philosophical themes. He explored topics such as individualism, personal responsibility, and the role of government in society. "Starship Troopers" is an example of a novel where he presented his views on civic duty and the military.

Hugo, Nebula, and Bram Stoker Awards: Heinlein received numerous awards for his contributions to science fiction literature. He won four Hugo Awards for Best Novel, three Retro Hugo Awards, and was the first Grand Master of the Science Fiction Writers of America. In addition to his science fiction accolades, he also received the Bram Stoker Award for Lifetime Achievement in 1984.

Influence on Science Fiction: Heinlein is considered one of the "Big Three" science fiction writers of the Golden Age, along with Isaac Asimov and Arthur C. Clarke. His works have had a lasting impact on the science fiction genre, and many contemporary authors cite him as an influence. Despite controversy and criticism for some of his views, Heinlein's legacy in science fiction literature remains significant.

In the year 2530, something massive is happening to our known universe—something not just involving the Intergalactic Federal Alliance, or one of the galaxy’s most renowned Officers, but also random civilians just trying to make a decent paycheck.

Follow the crew of the Dusk, couriers for the notoriously sketchy 5th Moon Cargo & Crate company, who find themselves unintentionally entangled in a possible intergalactic conspiracy involving most of the Milky Way.

Or tag along with the Great Commander Grissom, who shortly after returning to the intergalactic space station, slowly starts losing her sanity under the grip of an unknown Crow man possibly responsible for the assault on the dwarf planet Ragnarok. All while having to continue her investigation of mysterious attacks on colonies throughout the many star systems.

.

The first 3 chapters are 💯 FREE only on Amazon Vella!

Season 1 of 5th Moon is currently complete!

New episodes of Season 2 releasing twice a week alongside episodes of The Great Commander Grissom!

Blurb:

How wrong can you be? Just when Delta think they've found a quiet solar system, a new alien threat raises its tentacle. Humans are back on the menu.

Delta Squad reach the Tiqsimuyu System, human-seeded and thriving, with the inhabitants spreading out from their home planet to begin in-system mining operations and the first steps of colonisation. On first contact, they are greeted with deep suspicion as the politicians recognise the Haven design of Yasuko's ship.

Little do they know their arrival, and especially that of Zzind's ship, has awoken an ancient alien force on the outermost planet. As it rises from the depths of slumber, it begins to exert control, and subjugates every machine in its path.

With the loss of contact, the Tiq Government pleads for the squad's help to transport TSD Space Marines to investigate. As the alien lays waste, Finn, Zuri, Smith and Noah are left impotent when the Marines come face to face with the dead remnants of their old allies. Ordered to stand down, their intervention unwanted by the politicians, they can only watch despite the rising threat.

As the squad begin to understand the true enormity of the alien's disdain for life, they are forced into desperate measures, the weapons of choice taking on a new role, one that will change them for ever.

While Delta fight for Nutu Allpa and the future of the system, Yasuko must face shocking revelations about her past. In the face of such a relentless onslaught, will the squad be able to hold themselves together?

Obscure #NonSpoilerReviews “Stowaway”

“Stowaway″ by @ZDDeanBooks (Part Two)

What I don’t love about this book:

So at heart, I am an agnostic—bare with me, I’ll get on point soon—to the question of whether or not there is a prime cause, the cause of all the subsequent causes that resulted in our universe. In short, my answer to is there a God is: I don’t know. I don’t think I am capable of ever knowing. What I don’t believe in is religion, anybody’s religion—across the board. At the same time, I respect your right to have it, and in return, please don’t bother me about having your flavor of religion.

Now that my stances are clear, early in this novel, there is a statement that by no means is direct but seems to suggest that Islam is somehow more incompatible with good world order than literally all the other ones. I can understand why someone who fought in the middle east might think that, and I’ll even grant that there is a robust series of examples to support that idea in the short-term of history. In the long view of history, though, there are countless examples of precisely the same sort of fanatical behaviors borne from a genuine belief in all the other major world religions in history. There are significant differences, sure. Those fanatics didn’t have access to planes or high explosives, both being relatively new inventions in human history. Also, unlike today how everything is carefully recorded and cataloged, events in the past didn’t get recorded for historical reasons unless a learned person was handy to literally write it down, and even then, that writing could be burned, and that was an effective form of censorship. But we do know, through robust documentation, that groups such as the Templars absolutely murdered men, women, and children—wholesale—with absolutely no sense of irony in Jesus’s name.

That one throwaway comment is actually my most significant complaint about this book. I believe people of all walks of life are equally capable of being shitty or saintly, and no group is more inherently capable of either than any other group—in the long term—clearly, in the short term, groups like Nazis were as a group really, really bad. Still, Germans overall aren’t any more vicious or virtuous than any other segment of the human family.

I’ve read reviews saying there are many plot holes to this novel, and I didn’t find that to be true. I mean, I didn’t buy for a second the reason Zade is stranded because of what essentially is a data loss situation, but other than that, I found the internal logic of the story to be okay.

On the deep dark underworld of the Earth’s first civilizations, waits the guardians of the secrets of the dead, the old gods, and the Anunnaki. These mysteries weren’t meant to be seen again by the minds of men, however in the heat of the conflict of modern warfare, a small group of Marines stumbled out of the sunlight, into the darkness of the forbidden, ancient, unknown. Read more in my book, Smokepit Fairytales, and check my website for more art depicting the dark deeds of those who survive. #scifibooks #fantasyart #fantasynovels #scififantasy #militaryscifi #aliens #anunnaki #ancientaliens #ancientsumeria #sumerians #babylon #ancientbabylon #demons #darkness #mysteries #gilgamesh #infantry #corpsmen #marines #army #militarybooks #creepy #creepyart #weirdart #enterifyoudare https://www.instagram.com/p/CRc7zQIrEYi/?utm_medium=tumblr

Are you ready to light a fire under your ass? Well you better be, cause the clock is ticking for the next Trailer Park anthology! If you'd like a chance at being part of "It Came From The Trailer Park: Volume 2, Double-Wide edition", then send in your submission before the July 1st deadline. The competition will be hot for the open call slots, so you'd better be ready for a fight if you think you can run with the big Dawgs and not be left hanging on the porch. And as an added bonus, how about a cover reveal and announcement that the International Lord of Hate, Larry Correia will be gracing our pages? Yeah, this one is gonna be pretty damn cool. ;) #alien #anthology #authorcommunity #comedy #country #redneck #rednecknation #creaturefeature #horror #demon #fantasy #funfiction #ghost #ghoul #halloween #horrorcomedy #militaryscifi #militaryfantasy #opencall #paranormal #scifi #sciencefiction #urbanfantasy #trailerpark #vampire #williamjosephroberts #writer #writercommunity #zombie #Zombies https://threeravenspublishing.com/it-came-from-the-trailer-park-vol-2/ (at Chickamauga, Georgia) https://www.instagram.com/p/CfUMLMHrNRI/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=
