I repeat: I do not care for New York Times best-selling author Scott Sigler.
But I did write this ebook with him. It is part of Sigler’s Galactic Football League Series of books. It is on sale. You’re going to buy it here. You’re going to read it. You’re going to enjoy it.
What’s it about? I’m glad you asked.
Frederico Esteban Guissepe Gonzaga is many things. He’s a hardboiled private investigator. He’s a master of disguise and assuming false identities. He’s a veteran combat pilot and expert in edged weapons. Ex-commando. Ex-mercenary. He’s also a gay man in a distant future that has seen humanity become a brutal, xenophobic theocracy ruled by hate and fear and terror.
Now Fred has been hired by Quentin Barnes, star quarterback in a futuristic interspecies bloodsport version of professional football, to find the athlete’s long-lost family. The case will take Fred across the galaxy, from harsh mining planets run by vicious gangsters to spectacular alien cities populated by warrior clans, hitmen, assassins, and gladiators.
The novella takes place between the events of Sigler’s popular GFL novels The Starter and The All-Pro. It’s kind of like that Star Wars anthology Tales of the Bounty Hunters only all the stories are about Boba Fett and also all the pages have been doused in premium rum and set on fire by a Maori flame demon.
Buy it. Even if you’re not a fan of Sigler’s and not familiar with the GFL series. You’ll still enjoy the ride immensely. That’s my personal guarantee.
And if you do enjoy it, keep an eye out for Title Fight–my *other* collaboration with Scott Sigler–coming soon to your digital reading devices. It’s another GFL novella, however this one is set in the world of blood-drenched cyber-gladiatorial MMA.
Now here’s Sigler, or possibly an unshaven monkey someone has fed a bunch of Prozac, to talk to you about the novella.
