Our High-Tech Adventure
Thriller Stories
We started our publishing career with "High-Tech" adventure thrillers in 2001 with two books by Paul
Reilly.
Our first book is The Espionage Game. Much of the story takes place at Groom Lake, also known as Area 51.
It is the story about a young lady who is really a computer learning to be
a Top Gun fighter pilot, and the spy vs. spy struggle over her
between to gray haired spymasters.
The second book being offered is Dragon Fire.
It is about biological warfare
that nearly destroys China. The premise is the Cantonese
Chinese wishing to be independent of the Mandarins in Beijing resort to
such a terrible weapon to gain their freedom leaving two scientists
stuck in the middle. It is a technically plausible story and frightfully
accurate.

Nostalgic
Thrillers
Thrillers have been around
ever since there were story tellers. Some are older than others, and
Sea Eagle, although "modern" is based on
1940's technology, which certainly does not qualify as "high
technology" any longer, although at the time the equipment used by
both the German Navy and Barry Fitzsimmons was about the best
available. However Sea Eagle is more than a story about
technology, it is the story of two men, one a retired
businessman defending his home, and the other a German U-boat captain
doing his duty, and the battle they fought off the coast of Cape Cod in
1942.

1849 California Mother Lode
Stories
Given that we are located in the middle
of the old Mother Lode of the California Gold Rush, we decided to
republish a classic from that time.
The
Life and Adventures of Joaquín Murieta, the Celebrated California Bandit,
is a very old novel. In fact, it is about 150 years old and is the
first novel ever published in California, in 1854, and the first
ever written and published by a Native American. It is about the wild and
woolly California Gold Rush and the people who where collectively known as
the 49'ers.

The Alex O'Conner Trilogy
The Alex O’Connor trilogy is a
fictionalized autobiography of a young man learning about love, life and
sexuality. It begins
with him in graduate school. A typical middle-class American youth, he was
raised in the puritanical prudish mores of the mid-twentieth century.
And he is relatively inexperienced, both sexually or in the
realities of the world. The trilogy relates his learning experiences.
His first learning experience is the
story of Negrita, a South American aristocratic beauty who
was the first woman in her family to go to graduate school. However, her attitudes about sex and life are anything but
repressive, and so she makes Alex her lover and teaches him how to
love a woman. Then she uses him to teach the American women about the
joy of sex.
In the second volume, Alex
O’Connor is contacted one day by
“Mr. Brown” who offers Alex the choice of working part time for
a “governmental agency” or being drafted and sent to Viet Nam.
The choice is simple, or so it seems at first, but as Alex falls
ever deeper down the rabbit hole into the covert world he calls
“Wonderland”, there is no reality except the The Rule – thou
shall not talk.
