Saga Press, the American publisher of my military thriller The Red, has put the ebook edition on sale for the month of June for just $1.99.
This sale comes with a couple of caveats:
• It’s available in limited territories, primarily the USA and Canada.
• It’s definitely on sale at Amazon, and it’s possibly on sale at other vendors. (This is out of my control, so I can’t say for sure.)
So, about The Red…
• Nominated for the Nebula Award
• Finalist for the John W. Campbell Memorial Award
• Selected for the Locus Recommended Reading List
• Publishers Weekly starred review
• Publishers Weekly Best Books 2015
Despite all that, it never sold well. If you haven’t yet encountered The Red, I hope you’ll give it a try. Even if you don’t like military science fiction, this one might work for you. Here’s the description:
“There Needs To Be A War Going On Somewhere”
Lieutenant James Shelley commands a high-tech squad of soldiers in a rural district within the African Sahel. They hunt insurgents each night on a harrowing patrol, guided by three simple goals: protect civilians, kill the enemy, and stay alive—because in a for-profit war manufactured by the defense industry there can be no cause worth dying for. To keep his soldiers safe, Shelley uses every high-tech asset available to him—but his best weapon is a flawless sense of imminent danger…as if God is with him, whispering warnings in his ear. (Hazard Notice: contains military grade profanity.)

If you haven’t already, you HAVE TO read The Red! It is phenomenal. I ripped through the entire trilogy and you will, too.
