Rules of Engagement (2019)
(WMD Files , book 3)
David Bruns and J R Olson
"In this terrifying age of hacking that threatens not only our elections, but every infrastructure from our power grid to our economic system, the ultimate threat would be a cyber war that touched off a shooting war. Rules of Engagement lays out that highly plausible scenario in one of those fantastic novels that is hard to put down. Hell of a fine read!"

A Sinister Splendor (2019)
Mike Blakely
"The only problem with Mike Blakely’s new novel A Sinister Splendor is now that I’m finished reading one of the better novels to come across my desk in a very long time, I have only two choices open: Either wait until the sequel comes out, or re-read this one."

Quantum Trigger (2019)
(Galactic Space Opera, book 1)
Trevor Schmidt
"A damned good writer."
