WAR HERO. PIRATE FIGHTER. FRESHMAN DORM ADVISOR.

Poor Man's Fight 7: LIFE AFTER HELL is available in ebook now!

Even the best schools have problem students. Fremantle University has a bumper crop this year, turning the seventh floor of the north dorm into a vortex of delinquents, drama, and space-age mad science. For Tanner Malone, it's a breath of fresh air. Anything is better than interstellar war and genocidal aliens.

Those ugly threats haunt Tanner again when an adorable alien refugee comes to him for help. The Runners have barely survived extinction and captivity, and now live under the mercy of a corporate overlord. Worse yet, the menace that nearly wiped them out still threatens their world. Tanner can't call in the Archangel Navy for help this time—but college life may have given him exactly the allies he needs.

LIFE AFTER HELL picks up a couple months after the events of PMF 6: NO MAN'S LAND. I've made a point of slipping in some recap material in the prologue & early chapters in case it's been a while for anyone. The dorm goblins of this book first appeared at the end of No Man's Land and in the short story collections starting with SMALL VICTORIES, but readers can start fresh with them here without needing to go back and read or re-read those stories.

Life After Hell is available in ebook and on Kindle Unlimited for now, with paperback on the way (after some cover corrections). Audio hasn't gotten rolling yet, so we'll be waiting a bit there.

As always, thank you SO MUCH for reading and for your support. I'll let folks know when we have the paperback and audio ready, but most folks are waiting for the ebook—and your time is now!

New book! New book!

A skirmish in space can scar just as deeply as the fleet battles. Freeing a valley from a corrupt king only opens the land to darker threats. And grand theft auto gets a lot messier when the car belongs to a literal demon.

A small crisis is still a crisis.
