Blood & Thunder is a concept I’ve been dying to share with the world for quite some time. I'm so thrilled to be on the cusp of debuting what Benito Cereno, E.J.

What are the publishers saying about the new series?

Set in a far future where Earth has integrated alien species into a new society, Blood & Thunder plays by a whole new set of rules...and a whole load of new crimes to solve. 

Bounty hunter Akeldama “Blood” Bledsoe and her cantankerous talking gun, Thunder, are the best there is at bringing in the bad guys. However, when the galaxy’s most dangerous criminal breaks out of prison, Blood’s hunt delivers her down a path that will unlock secrets about her past, present, and future... and that’s when things get REALLY BAD.
