Have Jetpack - Will Travel: Five Tales of Adventure
(2026)A collection of stories by Charles Eugene Anderson and Jim LeMay
It's the 1930s. The Depression has a stranglehold on America, the shadow of fascism is creeping across Europe, and Daring Dorian Pace is strapping a jetpack to his back and flying straight into trouble.
Dorian is a pilot-for-hire — part barnstormer, part secret agent, all nerve. In five pulse-pounding adventures, he'll go from carnival stunt shows in dusty Nebraska to the darkest corners of a world sliding toward war. An old gunfighter named Knight is pulling the strings, and every mission is more dangerous than the last.
Five stories. Five impossible missions. One man with a jetpack.
A prison break from Alcatraz. An aerial dogfight above a speeding train. Nazi operatives who'll kill to protect their secrets. A femme fatale whose loyalties shift like smoke. And something ancient and monstrous stirring beneath the Pacific — something that shouldn't exist.
Each story raises the stakes. Each story pushes Dorian closer to the limit of what a man with twin jets on his back and more courage than sense can survive.
For readers who love The Rocketeer, the serial thrills of Indiana Jones, pre-war espionage, and weird fiction with real teeth — this is the collection you've been waiting for.
Five missions. No guarantees. Adventure is calling.
Genre: Science Fiction
